  1. The bearing is staked in the clutch. A little work with a Dremel and it comes off. The pain is removing the snap ring off the compressor shaft with the compressor still in the vehicle. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  2. I use ndsii on Android. It provides some consult ii features like idle air volume relearn and clearing self learning. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  3. I found one in good condition off of a qx4 in a junkyard. Mine cracked removing it to change plugs. Little bitty crack on the flexible piece where you couldn't hardly see it gave me all kinds of headaches diagnosing a misfire after Changing the plugs and coils. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  4. I had a noise like that coming from the front of my 02 at highway speeds only. Turns out the PO had serviced​ the front driver side wheel bearings, and didn't use enough grease. Cost me two new bearings and a hub assembly. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  5. Get the Maxima maf. Some of the pathfinders have security torx screws, mine just had regular torx screws. Real quick change, just don't drop it. I hear they are somewhat sensitive to shock. The Maxima maf was cheap enough that I just changed mine when I did plugs and coils. You'll have to clear the self learning and relearn idle air volume afterwards though.

  6. A word of advice though. I have a backup camera in my 02, and none of the wireless transmitters I used would work worth a damn. If they would connect, the picture quality would suck. I finally hardwired the video, and wished I would have done that in the first place. Would have saved me some time and money. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  7. Perhaps one of those paddle airflow switches from an HVAC system or a dryer to open the control circuit on the relay? Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  8. Did you have to install a diode to keep from backfeeding the relay when the fan is off and you are at speed? Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  9. Oh yeah, as soon as I take off the fans shut off. I'll play with it some more, but just in case, I ordered a new clutch and fan (aftermarket of course). Push come to shove, I'll mount one on the AC condenser for airflow at idle for the AC. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  10. I appreciate your input, and I will look into what can be done. Push come to shove, I can always put a new clutch and fan in. However those fans you linked would draw way too many amps for the stock alternator. And just out of curiosity, where should the probe be mounted? The position I chose was where the controller instructions indicated. But you actually have experience messing with these things. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  11. Oh yeah, I saw it. That bad boy is expensive. I can probably fab a shroud like that and purchase my own fans. Would need some better fans, but it could still be done for a good bit less than that. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  12. Yeah, I am starting to believe you are correct. I just put it indoors and used my fogger that I test my PC case airflows with. While there is substantial pull through the radiator, there is a draft of hot air coming out from around the edges of the radiator and immediately being pulled back in. Recycling its own hot air. So the answer would be to put at fan with substantially higher airflow, or seal around the radiator to prevent the engine bay from exchanging air with itself. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  13. Here they are. I haven't cleaned the wiring up. Was waiting until I was sure it is operating correctly. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
  14. I'll send a pic in a little while but I think you are correct. While those fans were rated at 1650 and 1200 cfm, I would bet there performance is reduced when encountering that high pressure air pocket created by a closed hood. And yes perhaps even forcing air back through the radiator. Out of curiosity, your problems with electric fans developed while offroading and using extra light bars and such correct? No problems under normal driving conditions?
  15. I can get you one in a few hours when I am back at the house. If it is a shroud issue, I have a maxima fan shroud without the fans. A little work with some scrap sheet metal would fit my fans to it.
