gitee Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 The suspension switch on my '96 Pathfinder doesn't light up, as it says it should in the owners manual. Is there a way for me to find out if the suspension is changing according to the switch? Also, when I shut off the engine, I can hear a buzzing/compressor-type noise on the right side of the engine bay. Any help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OR99.5Speed Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 You have a switch? Are you in Canada or something? Weird. I have no idea of what the problem is, but with complex stuff like this stuff breaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4x4le Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 I never heard of that switch either, but i have a noise and know what it is. The fuel return line letting the presser back, or at least it is air presser in the tank. It seems like a hissing noise. When it is happening, open your gas cap and see if it lets off pressure and if the noise goes away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gitee Posted August 1, 2006 Author Share Posted August 1, 2006 Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought I read somewhere that the suspension switch was on the early '96s? On the noise, it's only there for 1-2 seconds. I just thought maybe it was connected to the suspension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
02silverpathy Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 I have seen this on a parts sheet before. I think that they are just little motors that turn the adjustable shocks to the left or the right based on firm or comfort. Just have someone sit in the truck and push the button and feel the top of the strut towers to see if the mechanical part is working. Pics would be sweet of the top of your towers for everybody to see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t0ast Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Interesting.... I wonder if the foreign Terranos have this setup, or if this was just something Nissan scrapped completely due to budget or something. Post some pics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
