Got the M35 back from the radiator shop today for the custom top tank build, and when i picked it up they claimed when they unplugged the afm sensor (or map sensor whatever it is) with the ignition on and it made the engine light stay on, they checked everything (they claim) and they couldnt find anything wrong.

They claim they rang Nissan and Nissan wasn't sure but they then told me to unplug the battery for 30 Minutes at a later date which might reset the computer and the engine light staying on in the dash?

Anyone verify this ?

They also had to top up the transmission fluid which i mentioned had to be j-matic or matic-s. which they claimed they used and topped it up.

I took note of the kms before i dropped it off and they hadn't put any kms on it (unless they unplugged the dash fuses).

Slightly concerned now!

unplugging the battery & pressing the brake/horn won't clear the engine light on an M35.

CLICK HERE for the procedure to clear any fault codes.

Alternatively, if there is nothing wrong, the light will turn itself off after a few hundred kms.

I was actually suprised they did Scott , as they mentioned it first and knew only matic -s was available (apparently a previous worker had an infiniti series).

So i was suprised as you ..because i was about go sick at them if they used dextron III.

It takes correct timing which is easy to stuff up lol

The codes will display by the engine check light flashing 1-10 times then a pause, then again 1-10 times, pause, flash again, pause, flash again.

Each time it flashes, write down how many times it flashed before the pause (if it flased 10 times, write down a zero).

This will give you your error/s in a four number sequence.

The Ecu is behind/above the glovebox but it is quite uneventful to look at.

Undo battery terminals

press horn/brake pedal to release leftover current

reset battery terminals

check light should be cleared

lol....really! :D
