I would advise someone look at the connections under both front seats for the SRS seatbelt pretensioners as they usually flag up a fault if the connection is poor

Hi, My mum has a 2006 1.4 Micra SVE that has a fault with the seat belt in that the dash light comes on intermittently. We’ve been advised by the dealer that the fault is with the buckle(driver side) but the parts are no longer available so i would have to try and track one down which i did on ebay but after 3 trys they were all faulty, i found another through a breakers but Nissan mechanical said its the wrong one, even though it fitted and has not gone off yet. Can anyone offer any advise on how to fix this or maybe where i can find the correct part, thanks.

It would seem, and I would wholeheartedly agree. Although, technically, you could leave all previous weights on a wheel for forever, and just keep balancing it with additional weights as necessary!??? 😂 Not the case here though. All the weights are fresh new. They put both push on weights and stick on weights. Push on weights went to the inside of each wheel. Stick on weights are to the outside behind the spokes on the aluminum mag wheels. And.. as stated.. opposite each other in three of the four, and about 2 hours on the clock location off opposite on the fourth. It’s very weird. I have personally balanced a lot of motorcycle wheels in my life.. and it’s always one weight.

Thanks mate will do. Need to find a few bits and bobs but the car is mechanically sound.

Thank you

Thanks again. I’ve put in new batteries and tried the other fob for a while before. It is so random I am wondering if the door keyless buttons send a signal like the fob or they are hardwired. I’m thinking possibly the rf receiver is getting old and cranky like the rest of us….

no that seems fine as long as the lights switch on and off I wonder if the drivers door lock is faulty as it should control the rest of the doors locking and unlocking The fob may be faulty but try a quality battery and also check any microswitches for the buttons that may have become detached from the circuit board

Tried all the doors, they all put light on with a delay. Boot and tailgate both put light on and straight off. Is this the issue?

Thanks Trevor I will test this tonight.

It is necessary to remove all weights if out of balance before fitting new ones when replacing tyres If the amount of weights are too large then it is sometimes best to spin the tyre around on the rim to cancel out the imbalance

I would check the door switch which signals the system that the door is opened or closed and can trigger the alarm if wrong signal given Open in each door including bonnet, load area and all others to see if the interior light comes on and goes out after a while

Hi....welcome to the Club

Hi....welcome to the forum Good to have you onboard

oh very nice car ! Welcome to the forum and keep us updated on the progress

I would start by checking the electrical connection into the motor and if it spins up when you turn everything on the there's the problem

Any idea what it could be though?

I would start by removing the glovebox to see how much access you gain, if not much then continue to remove more dashboard components

After some help. My air blower is intermittent, some tomes it works sometimes it doesn't. Fuse has been checked, not sure if a new fan is required? Do you get to it by taking the glovebox out rather than the whole dashboard?

Any ideas?

I am looking for an idea of what the cost of replacing both front and back brake pads and discs for Nissan Qashqai 2019 model ? Thanks

Hi. (This site isn’t allowing me to select the Micra Forum). Just acquired (legally) a 2013 K13 Micra, which came without parking sensors. Online options are so numerous, what a minefield! Any advice out there? Anything gratefully received.

Hi, I am in the process of replacing the timing chain and sprockets on my 2015 Pulsar (70k miles). I'm now at the point of taking the sprockets off the camshafts but not sure how I do this. Is is just the bolt in the centre of each sprocket that needs undoing? Standard thread for both? I also now need a workshop manual to find all the torque settings as part of the rebuild. Can anyone provide a link or suggest a good manual to buy? Of course, if anyone has a list of the torque settings they could share, that would be perfect! Finally - any ideas what may have caused the chain and sprockets to wear at this low mileage? The chain had stretched and was noisy. On removal I've noticed the tensioner was ok but the chain was clearly stretched and all sprockets are well worn - particularly on the crankshaft. I have only owned the car for the last 2 years and the car had been regularly serviced prior to that. Sorry for all the questions on my first post but I appreciate all responses. Thanks

Hi all new to the group just wanted go introduce myself. I’m Adam and I’m in North Yorkshire I have a 02 Nissan 350z that I was recently given by my dad as it’s been sat for 2yrs. it had a little work done before it got parked up but it still needs a bit of love. tell me what you think.

Hi all, I have a 2013 D40 Tekna with a factory-fitted reversing camera which is sited under the handle to open the boot/cargo area. The handle has broken and I cannot find a replacement anywhere. All the ones I can find are standard, without a cutout for the camera, which won't fit - I have attached pictures to show the cutout. Has anyone ever had to replace their handle, and been able to find a suitable replacement?

Hello all, I am new to here and hope you can help, my qashqai has developed this issue when starting in the morning, it struggles to start with a funny turning over sound and eventually when it starts there is alot of white smoke and it idles rough but once it is warm it runs perfectly but with still a bit of smoke, I have been looking around the net, I have seen leaking or faulty injector a clogged up PCV valve I did have the Egr valve changed last year that’s all good. It dose feel like it has loss of power but the turn dose feel like it kick still. When it’s warm it sound spot on, by the way it has done 117k,
