#563 of 656 compass not working by gbaja Nov 13, 2007 (7:38 pm)
my '04 armada's compass and weather temp (located in the mirror) indicator is busted. Do they have a separate lithium battery or a fuse? THANKS Replies to this message: paisan (Nov 13, 2007 7:48 pm)

Replying to: gbaja (Nov 13, 2007 7:38 pm) maybe you turned it off? There is a switch on the mirror itself that turns it off and on.   -mike

Replying to: oddyssey (Oct 25, 2007 12:22 pm) Oddyssey, my fuel pump, computer both were replaced but the dealer didn't check the vehicle and it stopped again. When the car was finally checked the IPDM (Intergrated Power Distributor Module) was replaced, it was kept a day to see if it would continue to operate normally so far, it is corrected. If you haven't had it checked on your vehicle , do it. FORD has a recall for the same problem, but they knew the problem, and how to correct it.

Replying to: jesnmikel (Oct 21, 2007 7:59 am) The IPDM (intergrated Power Distributou Module) caused my ARMADA to stop while driving. The fuel pump and Computer both were replaced but until the IPDM was replaced the problem existed. Now it is working as it did when I purhased it. FORD Motors has a recall for the same probled but the knew the problem and inititated their recall, not NISSAN.

Replying to: paisan (Oct 21, 2007 5:43 pm) change the IPDM (Intergrated Power Distributor Module) and your problem should be corrected. It corrected my stopping problem.

Replying to: oddyssey (Sep 24, 2007 12:43 am) Have the IPDM (iIntergrated Power Distributor Module) replaced and your problem should be corrected, it corrected the stopping problem that I had with my 2005 ARMADA. FORD has a recall on their vehicles for the same problem but they knew how to correct the problem, NISSAN didn't. Hope this correct your stopping problem as it did mine.
#569 of 656 Re: Nissan Armada emergency brakes [mom15] by viciouspixel Dec 07, 2007 (5:42 pm)
Replying to: mom15 (Oct 20, 2007 6:13 pm) I had this exact same problem occur repeatedly with my 2005 Infiniti QX56 (it's the same as the Armada). The dealer couldn't duplicate the problem and refused to fix anything after 3 visits (about a week total in the shop). The next time it happened (visit #4), I parked the truck on their lot and refused to drive it until they fixed it. The repeated words "This vehicle isn't safe and shouldn't be driven" finally seemed to get through to them. I wasn't about to risk my life and lives of others in this vehicle.   I guess it took being persnickity to get them to budge because guess what?... There was a problem with the ABS. And they knew about it. It took 4 visits to the dealer for Infiniti to authorize the warranty repair!   To be fair, I may not have explained things correctly to the dealer. At first, I too thought it was a problem with the emergency brake. If the emergency brake light comes on, isn't it reasonable for the lay person to assume there's a problem with the emergency brake? How the heck would I know what all the error codes are and what all the flashy blinky lights mean? I'm not a mechanic.   But I do find it really hard to believe the dealer doesn't know about this problem now. I did my kicking and screaming to Nissan about a year ago, and it seems that other people in this forum have been through similar things. Your dealer should look at his tech bulletins again.   I wouldn't go quite so far to say the Armada/QX56 is a lemon, but it really has had more than it's share of problems. Am I too demanding to want my brakes to work, or not have the car suddenly grind to a stop on the freeway?   On the bright side, I'm really happy with my new 2008 Land Rover I traded for the Infiniti. Just hope I'm not going from the frying pan into the fire.

Replying to: gbaja (Feb 08, 2007 8:49 pm) I had the same problem when I bought my truck two yrs ago . It was brand new at the time. Dealer in Belleville, Il told me it is a common problem and had the whole sensor changed. it has been fine since.
#571 of 656 brake light on & grinding noise by gbaja Jan 03, 2008 (11:32 am)
I just came back from the dealer and told them that the other day my brake light was on and my brakes are grinding while sitting on the traffic. It happen 3 times in less than 10 minutes and I have to turn off the engine to restart the computer and other gizmos on these %#*^%#* truck. The dealer cant find anything wrong and told me to bring the truck while the brake light is on so they can see it with their computer reader. How can you drive a vehicle in that condition, can anybody give me an intelligent suggestion to my problem? thanks Replies to this message: tidester (Jan 03, 2008 12:01 pm) gbaja (Jan 05, 2008 12:27 am) tidester (Jan 05, 2008 1:30 am) and 1 more... rshe (Jan 05, 2008 6:27 pm) and 1 more...

Replying to: gbaja (Jan 03, 2008 11:32 am) While standing in traffic, does the grinding noise go away if you apply more force to the brake pedal?   tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper Replies to this message: gbaja (Jan 05, 2008 12:27 am) tidester (Jan 05, 2008 1:30 am) paisan (Jan 05, 2008 11:30 am) rshe (Jan 05, 2008 6:27 pm) gbaja (Jan 07, 2008 6:10 pm)
