IS My Z Too Damn Safe?

envisous · 11-08-2018, 12:34 AM

I'm going to try to reset the ECU tomorrow morning, then check the oil levels to make sure that is not the cause of the power loss as well. HUMF.

I get a dead pedal from time to time. To clear the issue I have to wiggle the TPS connector on the drivers side. Starting and stopping the car doesn't fix it. Since yours in an 2019 I would take it in to Nissan and have it checked out. I would love to have a Nissan Consult plugged in when my issue happens so I could see exactly what was going on with my car.

Try putting the stuff in the trunk then before starting it. Make sure the passenger side door is opened first..lol..jk.
Yeah, like Spooler said, take it to the dealer. The warranty is there to keep you from having to worry about stuff like that!

While the engine is still running, but experiencing these issues, do this: Park, Set the Handbrake while simultaneously Lowering Both windows, put it in neutral, press the Brake Pedal and raise both windows, turn the car Off, wait 10 seconds, then turn it back on again...

Resetting Windows always works...

Below sequence allows you to disable the safety feature

up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A

kinda happy my Z is smart.

other day was messing around in the garage and went to lock the car, it didn't beep but I heard the door locks click. tried several times then gave up, shut the garage door and went upstairs.

in the morning open up, start the car **** it's a lot noisier than usual!! then noticed the passenger door was slightly ajar. had been since the night before. lucky the Z realised I was a muppet and turned the interior light off rather than flattening the battery.
