#170 of 173 Pathfinder running light issues by caroline8 Nov 10, 2009 (4:35 pm)
Headlights working fine but the rear lights do not come on although rear directionals and backup lights work. I first examined the fuse marked "tail" that was located under the hood. It appeared fine, but I replaced it just in case. That did nothing. After reading Post #21, I took the plate off the steering column and sprayed everything with the appropriate lubricant. Still nothing. I pressed all the visible wires in there, even popped off a switch and put it back. Still nothing. Do you think it's possible that I checked the wrong fuse? I can't imagine 2 tail lights burning out simultaneously? Any other suggestions? I'm so discouraged. I haven't gotten under the car to examine the rear lights. Are there wires back there I should check? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Replies to this message: switchfixer (Nov 10, 2009 6:14 pm) dirtydiggins (Nov 12, 2009 1:01 pm)

Replying to: caroline8 (Nov 10, 2009 4:35 pm) Hello,   Sounds like you need to go back and revisit post 21 one more time closely.   " I pressed all the visible wires in there, even popped off a switch and put it back"    Your headlight switch is bad, ie making faulty contact -If you can take the switch out again and rebend the contacts there should be four of them. If the contacts have lost original bend spraying them won't make a difference.   Good luck! Switchfixer Replies to this message: dirtydiggins (Nov 12, 2009 1:01 pm)
#172 of 173 Battery draining? by dirtydiggins Nov 12, 2009 (1:01 pm)
Replying to: switchfixer (Nov 10, 2009 6:14 pm) I bought a '95 pathfinder and everything seemed fine until the alarm started going off for no reason. My friend disconnected it, put a new battery in, replaced the alternator and the cable connectors. There seems to be something wrong with the charging system or some kind of short that is draining the battery. Any ideas as to what it could be? I am coming to my wits end.
#173 of 173 2005 Pathfinder won't start,could it be electrical? by countrygirl403 Nov 23, 2009 (8:10 am)
Vehicle began having problems after adding fuel. Started running rough and then quit completely. Thought it was fuel pump so changed it out. Started several times and then quit. Now it cranks like everything is fine, but does not seem to fire. Have heard there are problems with main fuse panel, could this be our problem?
