#1 of 2 CVT fail to shift after replacing the battery by mozo Aug 21, 2009 (5:09 am)
Hi all   My 2006 4WD murano had a problem last week. I drove my MO on the highway and everything was fine till I parked it for like an hour, then started the engine but did not start I tried may be 5 times but nothing happened. The lights were weak and about to go out. I checked the battery and the little round window on it was black, it was empty. wasn't a big deal, I bought a new one with appropriate model that fits my MO. I installed it, then started the engine. But.. I noticed something..I didn't see the (P) on that little screen http://www.4shared.com/file/1220373...d0e684368f.html   ..also the (N)   ..but (D),(R),(1,2,3,4,5,6) appears. i didn't know what's wrong, I thought it was due to short circuit.   I drove the car on the road and I felt something was not OK, after a while I discovered the gearbox does not shift to the 4th gear. I was like Oooooh my god   it really creeped my out.   I took it to the dealer, and they gave me this short report:   http://www.4shared.com/file/1220400...0090730104.html   STEP MOTR/FNC CRNT [P1778]   and said my CVT needs to be replaced..   Shoked   they said there's a an internal part is malfunctioned and can not be fixed or replaced by it's own, the whole transmission must be replaced which it costs about $7066   by the way, the odometer reads 94000 k = 58408 miles   guys, is there any other solution? Do you think that the battery had something to do with this? Replies to this message: tidester (Aug 21, 2009 6:06 am)

Replying to: mozo (Aug 21, 2009 5:09 am) Do you think that the battery had something to do with this?   I doubt it. I would guess that the stepper motor faulted and depleted your battery. It's hard to believe you have to replace the entire CVT.   Try asking in 2003 Nissan Murano CVT (Transmission).   tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper
