  1. For 400 i'd say get it. I paid 700 for mine, put 1500 in it and its a great truck. Just gotta do the starter relay mod. Get it dude they don;t make em like this anymore!
  2. OK so thanks for all the replies. I checked all the connectors and they seem to be clean and corrosion free. TO be honest tho, there are some wiring problems somewhere, there was a green wire that was just hanging by the starter, so i'm not sure what that was about....anyway. Where are the directions for the solenoid mod? Maybe this will help. It turns out this was a new starter, not a rebuilt one so thats one problem eliminated. When the second starter died tho, I took the key out and it was like someone was still starting the car, sounded like a fan running till I saw smoke, then it sounded like it ran itself down, then it wouldn't start again. Maybe that has something to do with it? WHat does the starter motor push into inside the trans? maybe that is messed up??
  3. Ok so starter has stopped working again. This is the third starter that I have put on. All rebuilt mind you. I installed it, starts fine for 3 startups then won't start. Sometimes it will start just fine, then other times it will do the click and nothing. Battery if fine, I'm at my wits end. Oh as I type its stranded me at a friends house. Please help, gf is Hella pissed and wants me to sell.....
  4. Same thing here. My Audis engine blew at 130k due to bolts backing out of the engine. It's getting replaced now. Using the path as a dd until then. My pathfinder has done 300k+ and never asks for anything, no oil consumption or smoke. It's really a special model imo
  5. So my pathy wouldn't start the other day and I came on here to look for info. I searched and figured out it was the alternator or solinoid. So today I took my hammer and rachet extension and tapped, and it started right up. I know ill need to rebuild it soon as it sounds clogged up, I just can't believe it worked. My other car is an audi a4 and in no way would that ever be possible! Too much digital intervention. These trucks are crazy durable, I had no idea. Keep on truckin!!!
  6. Is this the switch for the factory light bar? It looks like the bar may have been removed from mine, switch has no effect lol
  7. This may explain why my dome lights want to stay on all the time, that and my hatch clicking locked but not staying shut. Thanks guys, ill take a look this weekend. Ah the joys of a 24 year old vehicle. By the time it gets done ill be able to take it apart and put it back together again.
  8. Ok I searched and didn't come up with anything. Is there a door chime on the 87 pathfinders? I'm watching cops and see this guy who ran but he was in a hardbody, but when he left the door open there was a door chime. It sounded like 2 bells. My question is do the 87-95s even come with a door chime? It's possible mine went a long time ago.
  9. I know this is another question that has been been done to death before, but I have to ask. What are the options the off road models had. I've looked for the red sticker on the back axle and didn't see one but due to age it could have fallen off. My next hunch is the cluster I have, I've seen 2 different kinds. Is this the off road cluster? I'm confused
  10. So I am having the common my speedo doesn't work issues. I've searched and found help, but conflicting solutions. Here are my issue 1-of all the gauges work except for the speedo 2-I replaced the speedo cable and the speedo goes straight to max and stays there 3-I read that there is a relay that can be replaced in the back of the cluster, does that apply here? Wouldn't that mean all gauges would be dead? 4-my shop is trying to get me to buy a new cluster, I'm trying to avoid this That's it guys, any help is greatly appreciated P.S.-what is the difference between off-road 87 models and non off road? The reason I ask is my gauge cluster is different than some I've seen on here from the same year. It looks like mine has 2 gauges for gas, one above the other. I'm confused lol
