ZD30 NATS Problem

[bmnader91]

Hi guys,

Got a slight problem. NATS.

Have read a few forums about bypassing the TD42, but can't find nothing about ZD30.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

I have already tried disconnecting the battery and restarting the engine as per the owners manual but no luck.

Have a search,top right corner and see what you come up with
other wise ET or one of the others will be along to help you out

I did yes

Plenty on the TD42 but not ZD30. Hopefully they are something similar.

I wouldn't automatically be disabling the NATS System .....

What is the problem ... no start?

Hi Happy

RACQ confirmed its the NATS. Engine cranks but does not ignite. Little red light on dash stays lit when ignition is turned on.

Could it possibly be a faulty relay or something of the like?

There is a chip in the key which engages with the NATS System to ensure that you are the one starting it...

Do you have a spare key to try first up, in case the chip is missing?

[bmnader91]

No spare key unfortunately.

Is it a Nissan key, or generic copy ?

The copies have a battery, when it fails the key is useless. I had this happen and had to pay Nissan for a replacement so I could drive the car.

Not sure to be honest. I hadn't had the Patrol all that long. What was involved with getting a new key?

A day with Mr Nissan.
