Started my QQ this morning and hit the hand brake switch as normal but the car would not budge. :o Had a warning light on the dashboard and a flashing hand brake switch. A quick check showed that the drivers side rear wheel was locked solid so called Nissan Roadside Assistance. The friendly RAC mechanic quickly diagnosed the fault. Something (probably a fox) had given the wire and connector boot a good chew and severed both wires to the brake calliper. :!: I couple of in line crimps have proved a short term fix :) but I believe a more permanent repair is required.

Has anyone else had this problem?

Also, is there a good on-line souce for Qashqai wiring diagrams?

Why not add to your forum details in "signature" area, so we can see what model you drive eg year/spec/model type J10 or J11location etc.
