Nissan Altima Power Door Locks Not Working

[@kristiang.5237]

My wife has a 2016 Nissan Rogue with 106k miles. Just the other day, she calls me to say that her driver window won’t roll up. I told her to park in the garage and that I’ll look at it when I get home. Go to the car and “wife complaint confirmed”. Logically, I was thinking bad window switch or window motor. I decided to do a simple google search which led me to a video with the same vehicle / issue which turned out to be a broken power wire to the driver window switch at the rubber flex tube in the door jamb. Wouldn’t you know it, that was the exact issue - I even used a pick for the “money shot” I as Eric O. would have done. I also found the rubber shielding of the canbus wires to be damaged. I fished 3 new wires through the flex tube using a zip tie and electrical tape and patched them in - problem solved. I believe that watching you, Ivan, and Eric’s videos Have greatly increased my diagnostic and repair abilities and I’m grateful for what you guys do. As far as Nissan goes… do better.

[@windward2818]

In my diagnostic automotive testing I am DMM (Fluke 87) centric like yourself. However, I do not use incandescent light blubs when I want to add a load, I just use a large non-inductive power resistor (5% tolerance). The load resistor values I use for 12VDC systems are as follows (in Ohms): 1) 3.0 (4.000 Amps at 12VDC) 2) 4.7 (2.553 Amps at 12VDC) 3) 12.5 (0.960 Amps at 12VDC) 4) 47.0 (0.255 Amps at 12VDC) 5) 100.0 (0.120 Amps at 12VDC) 6) 470.0 (0.026 Amps at 12VDC) 7) 1000.0 (0.012 Amps at 12VDC) I also use a voltage maintainer/charger (100 Amp) while troubleshooting like yourself. I like to set it at either 13.0VDC or 13.5VDC for troubleshooting. I select the load and maintainer voltage necessary to perform the specific test. I use stacking shrouded banana jacks (rated to 20 Amps) just like yourself at the DMM. So, I set the DMM to VDC, plug in the load needed for the test, then plug in the meter probe leads into the load stacking jacks. I don't have a problem in not seeing a light turn on because the resistors I use are large non-inductive planar type and are very robust. I have never had one fail. They are mounted on a small heatsink, so the 3.0 Ohm resistor can get warm but I only need to have the load present momentarily. The main differences between an incandescent bulb and a resistor for load testing are as follows: 1) The non-inductive resistor does not have a large in-rush current like the bulb (in-rush current can be up to 15x the nominal on current, this large in-rush can burn module PCB traces). 2) The non-inductive resistor does not change value with current beyond its very small tempco. Incandescent bulbs are very non-linear from 10 to 15 VDC, the current changes non-linearly with the applied voltage. 3) The non-inductive resistor does not break. 4) The non-inductive resistor will not burn the operator or carpeting. 5) The non-inductive resistor will not burn out. 6) Some high end shops freak out if they see you using an incandescent bulb load tester because they know that if used incorrectly can damage control modules. 7) Non-inductive large power resistors are costly as compared to a bulb, but they will last decades, do not have a surge current and they don't freak out technicians and engineers. For large loads I use an Autometer SB-3 Battery/Load carbon pile adjustable current tester (it has an adjustable load knob). I also have a portable 60VDC, 15 Amp DC power supply to power loads and do different powered tests either constant voltage or constant current, I added some output protection so I can easily test inductive loads. If I have a partial short in a harness and I can get at both end of the wire, I can use my power supply at a constant current, like 2 Amps, which is enough power to heat up the high resistance area which I can then see using a thermal imaging camera. I find the thermal camera is actually faster to use than an old style fox and hound audio tester which I also have. I think it is important to understand when load testing that you have a good enough understanding of the circuit to choose the appropriate load for the test you are trying to perform. Because, when you are at a customer shop and they ask how do you know what load to use, you should have a good answer, that is, a good understanding of the test you are trying to perform and why.

[@CampingNstuff]

I have a few load pro leads because a fleet I used to work for would order them for us . They do what the claim to do but a little bulky to use for everyday leads .

[@AutoFocus-se]

Thanks for a good video. When I saw the load pro it reminded me discussion bout 6-7 years ago with matt from schrodingers box. I have had the same view as you. Its bulky, no visiual indication. and a bulb is really simple. And I never did buy it. But I want to add the concept Loadpro wanted to show is true. No current flow = no voltage drop. I did buy Dans (the inventor) field manual and it was really good. I think Load pro was some proof of concept and ended really sad. And havent heard anything new from him. Take care guys.

[@davidturner4639]

Great diagnosis again, thank you for explaining the lights. Ordering some now. As a side, I had an Equinox where all door locks were failing at the same time. Makes sense since they're all the same age.

[@drew5955]

Hey great content as usual. Just a little input. I noticed if you put hazard lights on, especially on nissans and infinitys. It will keep the car alive and won't turn itself off or go to sleep. Obviously always have your maintainer or charger attached.

[@bartscave]

The automotive electronics training manual that Dan Sullivan sells with the load pro is a very good training manual. Written for more of a lay person.

[@mobilejoe87]

Yep, I think it was geared towards open circuit testing on big trucks. Even still, it doesn't adequately load a many circuits in a meaningful way

[@mike-s8n8y]

[@wafel19781]

I wish you do video how to do those light bulbs testers and how to use them for different circuits. Thank you for that a little information appreciated it

[@JessGartner-w1i]

I like the idea of a 194 bulb on the leads with the banana jack adaptors, I appreciate the time you took to add a link to amazon for them. I have been using the load pro for a lot of stuff over the years and it has its place but it’s selective where you utilize them.

[@autodiagyt]

With the loadpro in every scenario it can be used, you could use a test light. But not every scenario you can use a test light you can’t use a loadpro.

[@Mr2004MCSS]

I have made some test lights from light sockets off of a junk car we have out in the field. I prefer those over anything electrical Dorman. I have also used those banana jacks that you have listed in your store and have had several crack with minimal use. I just put some liquid electrical tape on the cracks because I didn't feel like making new ones. As far as the Load Pro goes, it wasn't made to back probe connectors. It was made to front probe them with the connectors disconnected. Lisle came out with a test light a couple of years ago that has a digital display with red and green LED lights and also a button to put an 800 mA load on the circuit. I guess it's their version of the Load Pro with a couple of additional features. Nice diag by the way.

[@autodiagyt]

Yes the Lisle tester is actually a tool I use a lot when checking fuses. As for the loadpro being made to front probe connectors, yes I’m aware but in the reality that is a design failure as well. When do you see male terminal ends the use that concaved tip to help steady it on the male terminal? Here in the US I don’t think I’ve ever seen a male terminal connector at a device. They are only used on inline connectors and usually the power flow direction is designed to be hot on the female side and not the male side.

[@Mr2004MCSS]

@@autodiagyt That is true about the male terminal connectors at the device. That is probably why they make a piece to screw on the end of the Load Pro to attach back probing pins and other accessories. No doubt that various test lights are more effective to load the circuit with compared to the load Pro.

[@markmaguire3554]

Another excellent video. True professional.

[@dittocopys]

I've been looking for a video like this for months, didn't realize when it was uploaded until I saw the comments were less than 2hrs ago. Having this problem on a 2010

[@JoseSilveira-newhandleforYT]

Interesting (weird) case and a great diagnostic, Jake! If the passenger door actuator didn't start working, I would have said that the BCM expects some sensing from the driver's door, to actuate the other doors. But it could be that the car was parked for a long time and the actuators got stuck and that short pulse from the BCM is not enough to make them move - maybe forcing them with a test lamp directly, can wake them up (BCM disconnected, of course 🙂).

[@zackclark2214]

I know with fords it’s not about battery voltage. It’s about the vehicles battery calculated state of charge and how much current is leaving the current sensor. Going to assume others manufactures a similar. This would mean putting the charger negative cable directly on the battery negative post will bypass the current sensor. The vehicle would only see current leaving the battery and not see it being charged. Using a jump post or chassis grounding point will be the best method to hook up a power supply so the current sensor could see the current entering the battery.

[@autodiagyt]

Fords I usually can get by with unplugged the current sensor.

[@marstedt]

Thanks for sharing this troubleshooting adventure and testing procedure / tools. Hope you can post an update video or post the solution here?

[@sergioc2342]

They do have adapters to back probe with the load pro. I had one, but like you said, it has no visual indicator to let you know it's working. Mine was working one day and stopped the next, sent me down the wrong path till I checked the load pro and found it was broken.

[@autodiagyt]

That button could stop working at any moment and you might never realize it.

[@LynxStarAuto]

Used to be commonplace on VW too. Multiple door lock actuators. Same with ABS speed sensors

[@windward2818]

Do you know the failure mode of the door lock actuators? why do they fail?

[@Bobbaabuilda]

The bulb filament is completing the circuit back to the BCM, letting the other door locks operate. They must see the Driver’s door lock operation first.

Awesome video bro. But ultimate user fail on the Load Pro! You really couldn't find a way to help you pin out a curcuit??? I recommend it. It had helped me out tremendously! And you really can't compare a Load Pro to lightbulbs. Two different tools.

[@autodiagyt]

Definitely not user fail. There is no test the loadpro can do that a test light can’t do but there is several situations where a test light can be used and a loadpro cannot. The major failure point of the loadpro is having no indication that it is actually doing anything. That button could stop working and you may never know if you don’t test it.

[@usrpro6755]

@@autodiagyt The button could stop working.... well, I guess anything is possible during auto diagnostic testing, but I've had my loadpro for years and nothing like that has happened.

[@kwashelby2010]

I've got a load pro taking up room in my toolbox as well. Maybe used it once. Better to use a bulb.

[@matthewbrice737]

Meh - I’m just a DIY’er, but the Loadpro works just fine for me. Tip is his concave “steady tip” design, not made for backprobing. Far, far more important is knowing when & how to use it and what it is telling you. Which has astonished me watching channels like this, South Main, Super Mario, Realfixes realfast, Royal Auto, Bernie Thompson, etc. when they all solve issues from other shops that turn out to be just basic electrical problems. Because of that, as a consumer I’d be more worried seeing someone with a Power Probe in their hands than Loadpro. Cheers.

[@autodiagyt]

Yeah that "steady tip" is meant for front probing male pins which is pretty rare to be front probing male pins for power.

[@nuwansameera6547]

[@mikechiodetti4482]

Like you, I'm skeptical about all 4 locks being bad unless water got down past the door window seals and went into the locks. It could also be that the original locks were upgraded later for better protection and operation. I see where you got the light bulb sockets from, but what about the ends that plug into the meter? Good diagnostics Jake.

[@autodiagyt]

The ends that go in the meter are just banana jacks. Everything is on my amazon store link in the electrical testing section

[@mugsymydog]

sir, have u ever found a comparable U test kit beside the one from AES Wave that is $300. I get the point about getting quality tools but I just do this as a hobby because I am retired. Thanks

[@autodiagyt]

Well the answer is not that I’m aware off. Mr. Subaru did a video a while back about some cheaper kit and then got an aeswave kit and said it was much better. You might can find his videos about it and see if the cheaper kit would work for you. The majority of the leads I use are all the smaller ones like the micro 64 but it really depends on what vehicles you are working on. There is no kit out there that has everything that you would ever need and most will have a lot that you’ll never use but as a professional this kit was designed but real professionals and not some China company that put terminals in there they think works.

[@iloveburittos]

I literally find issues where bodyshops place the door from a used salvage yard to a car without replacing the salvage with its original wiring harness, nissans have 3 different wiring harnesses. The driver door plays a major role by supplying a voltage to other doors. With power pins are misplaced other doors won't get power or supporting grounds.

[@alvaroreyes4707]

Nissan tech here. When the door don't lock it's the door lock actuators, when the windows don't go up n down it's the switch. The door actuator motors are known to fail.

[@kristiang.5237]

You would think, but not necessarily. 2016 Rogue… driver window would not go back up. Throwing a switch at it would have done nothing. Broken power wire to the driver window switch at the door jamb rubber flex boot. Appears to be a common issue with 2nd gen Rogues.

[@autodiagyt]

I mostly use the uScope from aeswave.com for quick signal checked. If I need something more precise or more than 1 channel I use the pico scope.

[@CJRock-xn5qf]

The battery jump is bypassing a current sensor. The system sees current flow but nothing sourced from the alternator. Not sure where a necessary source input connection would be. (maybe?) ; )

[@autodiagyt]

I’ve tried connecting several different ways and have yet to find something that works. Sometimes you can ground the maintainer to the engine or chassis so the current sensor sees current flowing in the battery and keeps it from turning off and then other times it does work. Sometimes unplugged the current sensor disables it and other times it doesn’t. It’s just a frustrating thing. Like add a line of code to that algorithm that just says if the battery voltage is >13v disable the battery saver mode.

[@mikesabin8568]

Well, different circuit, however, they all lock and unlock at the same time. Just like headlights, usually burn out same time because when you turn them on, they both come on at same time… but i still think its sort of unusual

I've been experiencing some issues with my car NISSAN ALTIMA 2017 over the last two days. The problems are as follows: While Driving or Park mode, the car locks and unlocks automatically. The front seat side windows roll down by themselves when the car is parked. Here’s what I’ve tried so far: Reset the car’s CPU by disconnecting the battery for 15 minutes and reconnecting it. Reset the power windows by pressing the button for 10 seconds in both the fully down and fully up positions. I suspected the issue might be with the key fob, so I removed the battery from fob and locked the car with the windows closed in parking. However, after 10-15 minutes, both front windows were found down. Has anyone experienced a similar issue? Any suggestions on what could be causing this

It's crazy that the major KZbin techs hate on the load pro without coming up with a solution for the shortcomings of the tool and design a better one. Dan Sullivan designed the tip to be like that so that wires don't get poked which is a big mistake b/c we're gonna poke wires sometimes regardless. I bought his book which was bundle with the load pro but the tool is too cumbersome for me to use it, so it's been sitting somewhere for years.

My issue with the tool is clearly shown but the to fix the tool to be usable would just be replacing it with test lights. I see no realistic use for the tool.

I agree that tool is not the best but shitting on it makes you look lame to me. It is like when hollywood adds a gay scene to a movie when they didn't need to. Your video was great. Didn't need to even add that part to the video. It was gay to add that

[@autodiagyt]

It might be for you but I often get comments about how a loadpro does what I show with a test light and in my opinion it was a half assed tool put out in the market and technicians trying to learn don’t understand how the tool can mislead them and I bet there isn’t many videos out there that show the short comings of the tool. So for you that information might seem pointless to include in the video but it’s definitely not pointless and who knows maybe they will see this video and pull the tool off the market and fix it because it’s a broken design.

I don't see the need for loadpro or power probe I can save 200+ $ and use it to make test lights and practice and be proficient and buy test leads and test kits

[@DavidRodriguez-d8e]

boring and no useful information. waste of time

[@autodiagyt]

What part of the system did I not cover that you was looking for?

[@curtisroberts9137]

Well if you were sponsored by them you aren't anymore! LOL. Definately doesn't look that usefull. If it had a built in light and the tip was banana jack compatible it would probably be useful at least to some extent.

[@autodiagyt]

I'm sure if I really dove into it more I'd find more things to complain about but I thought that was enough lol
