Service engine light and traction light on, and syncrorev wont work
So today I was leaving a parking lot and traction control and service engine light came on. Syncorev also turned off and won't turn on.
Also a few seconds after starting the car began to shake when idleing and then went away. After starting now, the service engine light is staying on Last edited by Zenmaster; 05-06-2013 at 08:53 PM. |

Sounds like it went into limp mode for a brief. This happened on my G37 once and never happened again. But if the lights are gone and everything is working I wouldn't worry.

Check engine light codes. Get a code reader, or borrow one from an auto parts store to diagnose it

Most of the major auto parts stores will have OBDII code readers that you can borrow, and/or clerks that are savvy enough to hook it up and read whatever DTC's (diagnostic trouble codes) are saved on the cars engine control module (ECM). You can buy a decent one at Sears, and the instructions are a breeze to use them. It really helps out with the maintenance and diagnostic work on any modern car.

if the traction turns off and your syncro doesn't work, your brakes are extremely low.
I had the same exact problem without the check engine light. Go to Nissan and tell them to check your brakes. Should be free unless you need to get them changed. $300 to get the rear brakes changed.
