I personally would probably just put a fuse in before the switch and also make sure the switch can handle a good load, thats about it. A fusible link would probly work also.

Im not sure about the fog lights on these because I havn't looked at them that much. But if you just find your fog light wires, and rewire them to your switch, you know from the batter to the switch to the fog lights, you should be able to turn them on whenever. Because right now they are wired to your low beams. Hope this helps.

HAHAHAHAHA

Congrats and your welcome

I installed my new cv joints all new both sides 121$ in the end (including grease and boots)

There 88 pretty much said it all

I meant to cut the low beam hot wire, stip both ends that you cut, take the hot wire from new lights, crimp the new hot wire with one of the old hot wires in one end of a crimpy thingy, then the other end of the old hot wire in the other end of the crimpy thingy. I think thats what you were lookin for 88?

Actually I meant find the wire that gets hot when your lows are on , cut it, take the hot wire from your new lights and splice it into the low beam wire. Then it will turn on when lows are on, and off when highs are on. But denisb way will work also.

I think it would be easiest to just splice a wire into you cigarette lighter hot wire. The only works when key is in accessory or on. And I don't think it would pop a fuse, but I could be wrong. 88 pretty much said all there is to be said on this topic.

No problem, if you need anymore help just feel free to ask.

Well in that case I think you want to tap into your low beam wire, same process as 88pathoffroad has explained, just have your lights on low. Then splice it in, should turn on when lows are on becuase juice it flowing thru, and off when highs are on, no juice flowing thru. Hope this helped a little.

17, 18 in a few months. Been working on cars since I was 7 I remember when my dad was alive he restored a '54 Chevy Belair, and he let me install the neon lights under the car when I was seven. Of course he helped me

Well today I found something out. My friend payed me to install an aftermarket stereo in his pathy so I did. But he wanted it to be through the stock amps. I had him buy a wiring harness and some little crimper things. Well I decided to do something different on his and that was change on of the wires around so it matched up with the amp wire in the wiring harness and the stock harness. I then installed everything like it supposed to be except I took the remote antenna/amp wire on his deck, and plugged it to the amp wire on the harness. Turned her on, and it worked! He was very happy although I wasn't. For some reason (i blame it on the amps) it makes the noise of the cd spinning in between songs in the speakers. But he was happy with the results and I made 30$

That is really odd because to be honest my cigarette lighter isn't hooked up right now and nothing does that in my pathy....

Im not sure on the 87 but on the 94 its under the passengers seat.

Then it should flash codes when you turn the ignition to the ON position....?

Well my first guess would be to try and see if you have power to the hot wire with a test lamp. If not, then i would disconnect all your "quick connect" harness and check and see if power is getting to the stock hot wire (car must be in acc position for this) If not then, i would check all the fuses, and check your wiring up to the battery, sometimes there will be an inline fuse, but Im not sure on these. If you do however have power then i would check to make sure the power wire is indeed going to the power wire on the deck. If it is, then I would take the deck to a professional to make sure a fuse didn't blow inside. Hope that this helps a little.

I have the same problem, I just start up my car, then leave the door open. I never shut the door anymore when Im not in it and its on.

Well Simon is pretty right. But to answer your question, we bypass the amps because thats A LOT of power going to our speakers. See with only the speakers, and no sub you can have it to the factory amps and when you listen to the stereo you could have it on volume 3 whereas without the amps it would be volume 17. Then when you install your new sub and amp, it won't be thru the factory amps. The sub/amp need a volume of much higher than 3 to get that sub kickin pretty good. So with the factory amps still hooked up inorder to get the sub kickin you have to turn it up higher, and once you get the sub kickin you find out that your speakers are blown out because there was too much power going to them. What I suggest doing is running all new wires, run a new hot wire from the battery, a new accessory wire from the battery, a new ground wire, and new wires from the deck to each individual speaker. By doing this you have just bypassed the amps. Therefore you can take the amps out. Then you can run your sub, and amp, and it will all work fine. If you see this as a problem then I would suggest just taking it to a professional. The most it could be is $45 Hope this helps a little.

Wish I could help but I have only owned one automatic and 4 manuals, and the auto I didn't own long enough to find any problems. Sorry.....

Hi Pathy and welcome to NPORA Forums! Well Im not absolutly sure what is going on, but I do know that the same exact symptoms were happening to my girlfriends moms Ford Taurus, and we just kept driving it. Well 4 months later we could be going down the freeway and it would just like pop out of gear, and almost like stay in neutral usuall for 20 secs sometimes up to a minute and then it would just pop back into gear. I know this probably didn't help at all but I was just sharing my story

I have read many users posts about stereo problems with the Pathfinder. So this topic is for you. The Nissan Pathfinder came stock from the factory with 2 amps located in the rear of the vehicle on the right side behind a panel. These amps supply power to the speakers (ie: one amp for fronts, one amp for backs). Installing an aftermarket deck. If you have recently bought an aftermarket deck and you would like to install it yourself there are two options that you have. 1. You can install the deck without installing new speakers and hope that it gets power to the amps. For this you just need to go and purchase an install kit (can be purchased at any stereo store or even Wal-Mart) for your year Pathfinder. The plugs should hook straight into your existing ones, then connect all the wires. If you are not running new speakers this means that you will probably have to get power to the amps. But first once you get every wire hooked up lets check and see what we have going. Go ahead and turn on the stereo and turn up the volume. If you do not hear anything than this means that either you have it hooked up incorrectly, or that your amps do not have any power. So to correct this you will need to get power to the amps. You can either run a wire from the battery to the wire for the amps which is in the existing wire loom (mine is a pink wire) and it will always have power going to the amps. Another choice is to run a wire from the battery to a switch inside your vehicle and then to the amp wire which will then make it to where you can manually turn the amps on and off (this is what I did before I installed speakers). Now after you have done one of these methods check again and see if you have sound. If you do, then congratulations you have installed your stereo successfully. If not, than this probably means that you have something not hooked up right. 2. You can install the deck and also install new speakers. If you choose this way then I recommend to just bypass the amps (ie: removing them from the vehicle). Install your new deck and you will have to either run a new hot wire to the batter and a remote wire to the battery or you can find out which wires in the existing wire loom are the hot and remote and splice into them. After that you will need to run a short ground wire to any peice of metal that will do. Now installing the speakers. You have a choice of 4x6's in the front and 5x7's in the back although with minor cutting you can fit 6x9's in the back. You just need to pry the screens of the stock speakers, and then remove them. Now before you install your new speakers you first need to run new wires from the deck, to your new speakers, as you recall for this step we are bypassing the amp therefore you cannot use the existing wires. After you have installed all of your new wires you may now install your new speakers and put everything back together. Now turn on your stereo and listen to the great sounds of a job well done! I hope that this has helped a little and if you are still stuck then please feel free to post a topic in the Garage section and someone would be glad to help you.

Ok maybe I over exaggerated. I put $10 in and it goes from empty tank to half full tank. Im not positive how many gallons that is but im paying $1.59 a gallon. But I drive 6 miles to get the gas because everywhere else is 1.89 a gallon

10MPG? what is wrong with it? My almost father in law with like a 23000 dollar land cruiser with a 383 Stroker and LT1 Fuel Injection and 33's gets 9MPG. Jeezo do you ride the throttle or something?

Yay, Im not the youngest Nice to see theres people my age here.
