Default Nissan Altima 2005 2.5 loosing power - 04-02-2007 , 11:48 PM






I have a 2005 altima and recently it started giving me problems. While
the car is on the Service engine light turns on and the car looses
power. The car stays on but when you push the accelarator it doesnt do
anything but the car is on. When i push the petal nothing happens not
even RPM moves. I took it in to the dealer and they told me that they
werent sure what the car had, that they had an idea it might be the
sensors in the petal. If anyone experienced something similar or knows
what this is can you please tell me cuz i dont know what to do?

You need to retrieve the trouble code(s) before going any further...

It probably has an ETC code (electronic Throttle control)

Then the fault happens the vehicle goes into one of 3 different "limp home"
modes


the electronic throttle actuator needs to be replaced... quite a common
thing
