Cool. Thank you... Mike

Hello all. I have a 2003 Pathfinder. I was just wondering if there is a difference between the TPMS light coming with a tone, and the TPMS light coming on with no tone? I used to get the tone (intermittently), and since they couldn't diagnose issue at the tire shop unless the light was on, I rotated tires, and left one at home until I narrowed down which tire was causing the issue. I had the sensor replaced in that tire and all was good. Now, if I am driving on the freeway for about 30 minutes, the light will come on with no tone. If I turn the engine off and restart engine, the light remains off. I am wondering whether it is possible that it means "over inflation"? I noticed that the tire shop put all the pressures to 40 PSI. I lowered to 35, but haven't had a chance to travel that far yet. Does anyone know what causes the tone versus no tone? Thanks, Mike

Excellent! Thank you so much. Mike

Rebelord, Hey, I just wanted to know that I looked into the Turbine Revolution Sensor that you mentioned. From everything that I am reading, this sounds exactly like what it is. I am not having a lot of the other issues as others, i.e. false dash warnings, but the tranny oil dripping right under the passenger seat is right up my alley. I want to thank you so much for this insight... I believe, since I am not having any issues other that the oil drip, that it would be safe to let go, correct? From what I understand, I would have to drop the transmission to replace this part, and, well, the drip doesn't bother me that bad, as long as I keep an eye on the fluid level. What exactly does this sensor do? If it actually does go out, what are the symptoms? I am assuming that it has nothing to do with the speedometer, or am I incorrect? Thanks again, Mike

Thank you for the response. Well, I kind of suspected tranny fluid due to the light reddish tint, although I have no idea how it would have gotten that far towards the outside of the vehicle. I have removed the heat shield for the time being to keep any puddling from touching the wires. We'll see what that shows in the next day or so. The frame from that area and back about 3 feet are wet. As for that link you sent, I wish I knew about this years ago before I bought the actual shop manuals... I always buy these when I buy a new vehicle since the AutoZone offerings aren't that informative. I'll let you know what I find in the next couple of days. Thanks, Mike

Hello all. I have a 2003 Pathfinder SE 4x4. I know this is going to sound strange, but I have oil leaking out of one of my wiring looms. I know, not possible. But, what I believe is happening is that I have a leak somewhere in my engine, but somehow dripping into my loom, running to the lowest point and dripping elsewhere. So, the location of the dripping is right under the passenger seat, but on the exterior. There is a bundle of 4-5 connectors protected by a heat shield under the vehicle's passenger side front. This bundle runs through the floorboard and then under the carpet under the front passenger seat. The floorboard is completely dry under the carpet. When I removed the heat shield, everything around these connectors is dry, but where the wires come out of the loom is soaked and is dripping a couple of drops of oil an hour. I have even stuck my fingers into the holes of the frame, and they are dry. So, basically, I am just wondering if anyone happens to know what that bundle leads to on the engine side. I have looked under the hood, but cannot see anything wet. I would appreciate any guidance. Thanks, Mike
