Replying to: wingsovgrace (Nov 07, 2007 3:59 pm) My 06' and 07' frontier do the same thing! My friend is a former ford mechanic he says that is is common for them to do diagnostics on themselves. By the way mine does it daily after I turn the key off-- just sit in it for a couple of minutes after you turn it off you will see what I mean!

Replying to: wingsovgrace (Nov 07, 2007 3:59 pm) This is common since the 1998 model year (unreliable electronics) in instrument clusters. Don't buy used, expensive with same problems waiting. Call Mr. Wizard or search online, their tel. #1-888-803-8523. Cost $199.00 for repair of YOUR cluster assembly. YOU must remove and ship to them for repair. They will provide you with prepaid UPS label for shipping (as they are a canadian co.). Some people say you can drive the truck w/o instruments while it is out for repair, I don't know if this is wise, it's a personal choice.
#29 of 60 98 Frontier Auto. 2wd Keeps Dying, Especially When Stopped Or Uphill. HELP! by widowneedshelp Apr 24, 2008 (10:29 am)
My 98 Frontier truck-auto. 2wd. Keeps dying when I drive it just a short ways. It does it especially when stopped at light and does not seem to like hills. It just stops when driving! I have had many parts replaced to no avail! I am out of money and this truck is my only way to make an income! Thanks in advance!

Replying to: cspraf (Apr 24, 2008 3:21 pm) Usually June/July timeframe. There is no set time and it varies depending on inventory and many other factors.
#32 of 60 Tail gate latch by robjefferson May 05, 2008 (12:12 pm)
I recently purchased a 2001 Nissan Frontier (my first truck). Yesterday (and every day before) the tailgate worked fine, but today it wouldn't open. I took off the back panel and the problem is not with the handle, but with the latch not returning to the proper position.    Example: when I pull the handle the tailgate opens, but then the mechanism inside does not return to its proper place so, the next time I pull the latch, the mechanism is not in place for the latch to press down on, and so release the gate.   Does anyone know how to fix this problem? It seems relatively simple, but I can't figure it out. Replies to this message: asa (May 16, 2008 8:37 am)

Replying to: robjefferson (May 05, 2008 12:12 pm) When you peer at the mechanism, do you see where a return spring might have fallen out or is hanging from one end? I've never dismantled one of these, but I'd imagine a spring is used to pull the latch back into position.
#34 of 60 1998 speedometer NOT working by okrafeet May 24, 2008 (4:53 am)
Hey folks,   The speedometer in my '98 Frontier is not working. It would register for awhile and show 45 mph when I was driving 60 mph. Now it's just sitting there dead. Check engine light is on as well. I just put a new transmission in, used but only 70,000 miles but the speedometer was acting up before the transmission was installed. Radio, lights...all other electronics working. Any thoughts?
#35 of 60 2003 Frontier Tailgate Handle by yader84 May 25, 2008 (10:37 pm)
Hi everyone.   The tailgate handle on my 2003 frontier XE broke today Not a biggie right? Should be easy enough to fix. Well, it is easy to fix if you can find the part! I have searched everywhere. I can find the handle for anything 2000 and older as well as 2004 and newer. It's like the middle 3 years are just gone! Have any ideas? It's just a stupid piece of plastic.   Thanks all!

#36 of 60 Chipping Paint on 2003 Frontier by reid1083 May 27, 2008 (5:08 pm)
Just curious if anyone else has issues with their paint chipping. I have spoken with Nissan and they say not enough people have complained to do a recall so I was just curious how many other people are having the same problem I am. My paint is chipping almost all the way down the right side of my vehicle. It is down to the primer. I have owned many vehicles and this is the first one where the paint has chipped.
