    Hey guys, I am trying to find a replacement alternator and starter harness for my 07 Xterra. Of course, I checked on it through Z1 Offroad and it said on their site if you have an 07 to check for VIN capability. When I called, they said the harness for my VIN is discontinued. The part number is...

    Hi all, I followed the advice on a video by Eric The Car Guy to troubleshoot a parasitic draw, by attaching a multimeter (set at 10A) from one terminal of the battery to the cable, then proceeded to painstakingly pull every single fuse out, one at a time and check the meter for a drop. All...

    Hi! Dash on my 05 Xterra start lighting up and lost power. Revved fine in neutral but in gear was very slow). I was told it was the alternator so I changed it but with a 130amp alt, volts were low 14s with the volt meter and I had it running for over half an hour no problem, drove off volts...

    Hey folks, I need to clean up my wiring a bit. Looking to add a fuse panel in the engine bay. A couple of questions: 1. There's some sort of a current sensor that the smart alternator uses to ramp up/down based on load. Where is this sensor and how do I take advantage of it? 2. Right now, I...

    I replied to an old thread, but now my issue has changed, so I guess I'll start a new one. I just purchased a set of Spec-D halo light assemblies for my X, and installed them. It is the (supposedly) smoked lights version. I wired the halos and the LED strips to the backup lamp circuit fuse under...

    I own a 2005 Xterra SE, and when I bought it, the radio didn’t work. Upon further inspection, I found out the fuse keeps blowing (pull out the old one, put in the new one and boom, it’s blown). Not sure what the issue is, unplugged the radio and put new fuse in, doesn’t blow until I plug the...

    Ok so I used to store my 07 X at my buddy’s property with the shop and nearby trails, but I parked her 4 months ago in my driveway because it has had an overheating problem even though it was not leaking/losing any coolant and has now basically had a cooling system overhaul (radiator + caps...

    Hi . hope everyone is safe and doing well. So my steering wheel button for skipping tracks stopped working recently and the dealer informed me that the issue is due to the spiral cable (also called clock spring?) just under the steering wheel. The part is currently not available with the...

  11. How-to's
    I did mine slightly different than others that I've seen. I attempted to make it look as OEM as I could. It looks pretty good even when the lights are off. I'm really happy with the results. I initially wanted to 3D print an insert to put into the empty diamonds and install the lights in there...

    Hey everyone, not sure if this was supposed to go here or in the interior section so bear with me. I've looked through countless threads here and on other forums and cannot find any solutions. The other day, I noticed my X started locking all of the doors on its own continuously while I was...

    Hey everyone, I need some help identifying some factory/aftermarket wiring in my 2012 Pro-4x. After I bought the truck in 2015, I noticed a push-button type switch under the steering wheel/dash (pic1&2). I would push it every now and then when I was driving just to see if it did anything that I...
