Good day to all.
Was driving peacefully down the road in my 2004 pathfinder at about 90KM/h when the 4WD warning light came on in the dash. Car quickly shuddered and it felt like it had gone into 4WD mode. The center lights "shift indicator lamp" all went out. I slowed down to 70KM/h. and struggled to complete my journey home.
Came to a stop light, and the beast stalled. I tried to restart a few times, and finally got it going after waiting 5 minutes or so.
I do not have a consult-II unit, so I went the self-diagnostic mode found in the TF section page 62.
Followed the example, and after the last step, looked at the lamp to see what code it would provide. It simply flashed every 2.5 seconds.
If I read the example properly, it should have given me a 2.5 flash, followed by a 1 second pause, and then an appropriate number of .5 second flashes, the number of which would correspond to the page 63 malfunction sheet.
Seems like it did not have a code stored.
Anyone experience this error?
One additional detail is that the ABS light is on and that the abs system has not worked for at least 5 years.
Best regards.
