This is how you reset the check engine light. No tools required!

In car ECM Diagnostics/ECM Reset procedure:

1) Sit in the driver's seat.
2) Turn the ignition key to the ON position and wait three seconds. (Do not start the car.)
3) Fully depress and release the accelerator pedal five times in less than five seconds.
4) Wait exactly seven seconds. Fully depress the accelerator pedal for ten seconds until the MIL light flashes.
5) Release the accelerator pedal and start counting flashes to obtain the four-digit trouble code.

Long flashes (0.6 seconds) indicate the first digit of the code; count the blinks one through nine and write down the first digit. (Ten blinks indicates a zero.)
The next three digits follow in turn in the same fashion except with faster blinks (0.3 second) and a 1.0-second pause between digits.

The ECM code repeats intself until you turn the ignition key to the OFF position, at which point the ECM resets itself to standard get-in-and-drive-the-car mode.
You can look up the trouble codes in the ESM/FSM; there's a bunch of them. In the ESM, refer to page EC-639.
Additionally, if you get four blinks of ten (0000), the ECM is indicating no malfunction.

You can clear the code (and the annoying MIL) by holding down the accelerator pedal for more than 10 seconds while in Diagnostic Test Mode II. When you release the pedal, the ECM erases the trouble code(s).

Hey. I post on occasion on the Altimas.net site. Does that make me a knucklehead? I would wager some would say otherwise.. Maybe wild willy for one?

pvick · Apr 3rd, 2004, 03:03 PM

Actually he's over here because we ran him out of Altimas.net. Something about incest or animal sex.. I don't know. (heh, heh.. I'm trying to start something, I know).

Hey there JKWright.. How the h--- have you been???

I don't know what this is about..But...What ever pvick says..is ALWAYS correct.

And pvick...Leave my sister and my puppies out of this

pvick · Apr 3rd, 2004, 03:10 PM

Careful there, Mr. Wright. I caught some flak when I first joined Altimas.net for making a comment to the affect that perhaps some people might wish to take a course in basic English and written communications.

But just like eating, you are what and how you write. Those who know how to write well are quickly recognized for their inherent ability and are perceived as having a modicum of intelligence and education. Those who cannot or will not ascend to this level will always find fault in those who have.

An 1102 code is your MAF. I have the full printed 4-volume shop manual set and had the same code a week ago Friday. I had to have my MAF replaced. What year is your car and what is the part number of your MAF? Also manufacturer of the part.

wild willy · Apr 3rd, 2004, 03:15 PM

You are going to make me go read this entire thread....

Jarrod...where in the hell have you been....?? If I ever find your number in my house...I am going to call you. I know you still have the Altima...Because you have not hit me up for more plugs

We miss you and your quick, always funny, always direct...posts

pvick · Apr 3rd, 2004, 03:19 PM

Hey willy... you have a seester?

Good Lord, Willy JerryJ, Liz.. what's happening? People jumping ship and coming over here?

After having my Frankencar/Apexi intake on my '02 Altima SE for over a year and a half, my original MAF went out last Friday a week ago. I did the backyard mechanic read-the-codes-from-the-blinking-SES-light thing and came up with, what appeared to be, an 1102 code. My shop manual translates this into a MAF problem. And the symtoms were classic MAF. Serious loss of power, poor and jittery idle, fuel cutoff above 2400 RPM. I had a dealer repair the problem this past Wednesday and the receipt confirmed that the code was a MAF failure.

Funny, last Saturday, I bought a MAF from that same dealer to do the install myself. The box had been opened and both the parts man and me were a little skeptical, but I took it home to try it. It was also bad. The MAF which was installed on Wednesday carried the same part number (22680-8J000) as my original and as the failed one I bought to install myself, but is made by Bosch (the failed one I bought was also Bosch).

I'm hoping this one will last, but I won't hold my breath. I did closely inspect the MAF on a 2005 and the portion of the sensor which attaches to the sleeve is different than mine.
