just thought I would let you know I ended up finding Transfer Case Module with the same part number as mine for $189 a lot better then paying $2000 from Nissan,thanks are bunch for your help Slartibartfast hopefully it's just plug and play and no reprogramming needed.

I have considered converting my vehicle to a manual transfer, but the amount of work involved is overwhelming. Unfortunately, I am not skilled enough to do it myself and there are no shops near me that would take on the task. I am hoping to find the right transfer case module, but it seems like a long shot. It might be best to cut my losses and replace my vehicle, even though I really don't want to. It's starting to look like one of those 'if all the stars align' situations

yeah this is the 4WD Knob that's currently on my R50 sorry for the quality picture I grabbed this off google https://photos.app.goo.gl/R3LXPNDLNDSL6i4G8

Yeah I'm really surprised I didn't kill the engine, I heard the VG33E is pretty reliable I didn't really believe it until that day

Do you happen to know if the transfer case control module for the R50 Pathfinder is the same for all Pathfinders that are equipped with the VG33E engine? I have come across many transfer case control modules online, but the first five numbers on the part number are the same, while the last five numbers are different on most of them. They do mention that these modules are for 2005 models and up, so I am assuming they are meant for the VQ35DE engine and might not be compatible with mine.

Hello everyone, I've been a long time lurker but this is my first post. Let me give you a bit of background information to help with the topic I'm about to discuss. I've owned a 2000 R50 Series 2 VG33E Pathfinder for about 13 years. It's an amazing 4WD and my first car. I've spent a lot of time over the years upgrading it bit by bit. Living in Australia, there isn't much aftermarket support for the R50 Pathfinder, so getting parts has been difficult. Back in 2022, I was out camping with a few mates and made the stupid decision to cross a rather large section of water on the way to the campsite. Long story short, I misjudged how deep it was and what the bottom was like. I should have walked it, but I didn't, and my pride and joy got stuck and filled with water. By some miracle, my engine survived, but both diffs were filled with water, and my car put itself into limp mode. I ended up getting it to the blacktop and got the old girl towed home. It took me the better part of a month to clean the mud out of the inside. Fast forward to one month ago, I was planning another camping trip, but when I tried to test 4low, it wouldn't engage. I have Warn free-wheeling hubs, so I took it to an auto electrician, and they found that my transfer case module was full of mud and corrosion. It turns out the module was destroyed. I wanted to know if the transfer case module is the same for all years with the R50 Pathfinder that has the VG33E engine, or are they different? Can I use a module from a different model 4WD with the same engine? I have linked a few pictures of mine. https://photos.app.goo.gl/NZq9DocHzDwZQTQQ7 https://photos.app.goo.gl/vmQQLPsszmnPMaFp7 https://photos.app.goo.gl/3fXHs3jQkAFvvTWw9 https://photos.app.goo.gl/tqZ9BmJyY76kYPp96
