I told them if they can get it started, that they should pull the fuse then we'll be good to go. They told me something about that not working because of some communication with either the BCM or ECU (can't remember which). I'm a car tech noob.

Does this make any sense, or should I push back on this?
They are Nissan techs and they have no Fvcking clue,
My discovery to remove the fuse has been argued since I recommend it and nobody has had any problems(except for a delay in starting which has not been proven to be related)if the Nissan techs studied these cars as much as we do they just may learn something.
