Hello I'm Bart. I am an ASE certified Master Technician with over 20 years experience in the Automotive Industry.
I'm usually logged in 9-5 Mon-Fri Mountain Time Zone.
I take lunch from 12-1p
I know it can be frustrating having vehicle problems. I'll do my best to help you. Please understand that
I don't know what your skill level is, what tools you have available and I can not physically see what you are doing.
If it is more helpful the site automatically offers a premium phone call service where you can talk to me directly or another Expert may call you if you request it.
You may accept or decline, but please understand that
I may not be able to call right away as I may be helping another customer or researching information related to the problem you are having.
If this is an electrical issue please a have voltmeter and 12 volt test lamp ready to use.
I would also ask that you tell me what parts you have tried
replacing to fix the problem. Doing so will help diagnose the issue faster.
If there are any trouble codes please provide them.
I'm reading the information you provided to the Mechanic's Assistant.
I may request more information or provide an answer momentarily. Just a moment.
This could be many things.
I'd need to see a data snapshot from a scan tool to draw any conclusions for sure.
Some common failures are....

There is a non serviceable screen not a filter.
Still not sure what you need?
Have a certified mobile mechanic diagnose what's wrong with your car, at your home or office.

1999 Nissan Altima won't stay running. I changed the thermostat.
