Hi & welcome! Not sure what you may have already tried but here's a few ideas: vinegar, baking soda, charcoal... maybe open a can of coffee & leave it in a while?
& also what 5523Pathfinder said!

OK.... I'd like to hear some thoughts on this...keeping in mind:
This is my only vehicle & I want to keep it in good running order. (Also keeping in mind that $$$ doesn't grow on trees!)
Pros & Cons re: replacing or overriding the neutral safety switch?? (or doing nothing & just whacking the gearshift into PARK!?!?)
-
As a non-mechanic, I recently paid for a tow truck to come out and start my 99.5 Pathy. He hooked it up to the cables and nothing. He then went and jammed the "gearstick" forward that changes gears. He said that when it is in Park and is an older Pathfinder it often does not override the 'neutral safety switch.' He suggested I use the parking gear when before I put it into Park and to know just to jam your gearstick forward if you don't get a start.
A $65 lesson.
~~~~~~~~~> BINGO!!
I went out & whacked the gearshift toward PARK....then she started up like usual!! YAY!!!
-
If I had any "likes" left I'd "like" your post! Thanks for your reply, I really appreciate it!

AWESOME!! Have fun...and be SAFE!!

I actually did check the battery/cables...they don't budge & look just fine...but thank you for the suggestion!
-
Thanks! I'll remember that & give it a try if (when) it happens again
-
That's true! The shop said they couldn't find anything....no "driveability" issues......they checked battery, starter & alternator....so I have it back...guess if they don't find it they can't fix it.
Here's to hoping it doesn't happen again anytime soon!!
-
Maybe I didn't bang on the starter enough?!??
-
AAAAARRRRGGGHH! The shop just called & told me it started right up 5 or 6 times in a row after they took it off the tow truck....soooo Mr. Diagnostic Guy is gonna' check it out.... I hope it's nothing B I G!
