2007 Maxima Headlights, Dashboard lights off
The problem I believe started 2 years ago. The battery was dead one morning and the CAA guy said “something” must have drained the battery. Last year the battery was drained again and CAA changed it. Again they said “something” must be draining the battery. Two weeks ago we came home the car was off and all the lights were on…the head lights, the back lights, dash board was all lite up too. Needless to say the car would not start. CAA came again and boosted the car. This guy said the same thing “something electrical”. The battery was checked out at Canadian Tire as well the alternator too. They claim they are fine. There is something that had been occurring prior to this, not daily, but frequently when the car was turned off the “Set Clock” light would come on and not go off. Also, just before this the, dashboard lights would dim and brighten while I was driving it. I took the car to the Nissan Dealer for a computer scan and $400.00 later they replaced “Main Ground Strap” and “Power Side Terminal”. They called and said the “Headlights aren’t working now” “need further Diagnostic” if I wanted to continue it could wind up costing $2000.00!! I’ve taken the car and have driven it only in daytime.. Now the Dashboard lights come on for a split second when the car is started and then it all goes “black”. When I came home the lights came on and stayed on, the next day the lights went black again. Now someone’s told me my rear light on the passenger side is not on and I don’t know what I’m supposed to do about it. The car itself works fine. I just do not understand why it’s so difficult to solve this issue
