The Canadian Villager/Quest has a daytime running light module mounted on or near the passenger side strut mount under the hood. I have heard that if you take the module apart and touch up the solder joints it may fix the problem. Seems this board suffers from cold solder joints that eventually fail. Go to:

For lots of great information on this problem.

Distributor Problem by dcracraft
Mar 28, 2009 (5:15 pm)

My wifes van stalled and will not start. I replaced the coil, had the igniton control module test and even replaced the coil to dist. cap wire. Van still wouldn't start. So off came the dist. cap. Rotor and cap are maybe a month old. When we turn the motor over the rotor does not turn. If I grab the rotor, I can't turn it. Feels normal like.
 
My question is, does the timing belt have anything to do with the distributor turning, or does the dist. get ran by the camshaft or something else?
 
It seems to me that if the distributor wouldn't turn by turning over the motor, I would be able to turn the rotor really easy.
 
Any ideas? I know I'm gonna have to replace the distributor...

Pet Hair Clogging Ignition Key Mechanism by thecarphotoguy

I've posted a "Thank You" to the McGavock Nissan Website who fixed my wife's 95 Nissan Quest. They cleaned out a bunch of PET HAIR that had gotten into the steering column and CLOGGED THE KEY MECHANISM! She'd come out after a long, hard day at work but was unable to get the ignition key to turn and had to walk home in the Texas Heat (I'm in another area of Texas). The Nissan Dealer had the van towed in, fixing the "hairy problem"! The tow company evidently snapped the transmission selector cable so the dealership didn't charge my wife for any of the work or the towing! I was very happy for the honesty and care they took with my wife. Some shops might fib to a women, who is alone, about the cause of a vehicle's problems, but McGavock wasn't playing that game so their Service Department gets my whole harted recommendation, especially for taking care of a unaccompanied woman!! As far as keeping hair out of an ignition key mechanism, I'd guess I'd suggest not having pets on your lap while driving or sitting in the driver's seat and keeping the floors, seats and dash area vacumed (but its just my guess)!

Washer fluid warning light by denzil

The windshield washer low fluid warning light is on in my 2002 Villager Estate with electronic dash even though I've made sure the resevoir is filled to the top. I've pulled fuses to reset it and have done the 3+ start cycles to reset it with no luck. Has anyone else had this problem and found a soultion?

A piece of black electrical tape over the light will fix you right up . But seriously, there's probably a sensor in the bottom of the tank that has gone bad or is gunked up.
