Issues With Nissan Altima by tivta(m): 9:16pm On Sep 06, 2015
Gurus in the house, I have the following issues with my Nissan Altima 2001 model (Not to sure of the year but below 2003)
1. The short gun mirror is not working aka passenger side besides the driver.
2. The battery discharges quickly (suspecting parasitic drain cause the alternator is working)

I will like to know the estimated cost of the problems listed above and if possible the cost of a tokunbo engine for the car.

As for the mirror check the fuse. What test was carried out to confirm that your alternator is charging. You need to further trouble shoot the problem. If you need to trouble shoot and get a solution and you are in lagos. Call 08156087872 or 08165520837. Bbpin is 7BE1C522

Thanks, I know the alternator is working cause even when the car is driven with the cd player on, the battery doesn't run down, it is when it is left connected over night that it runs down. As for trouble shooting, I will have to get back to you as soon as I have an idea of the cost.

Does not rule out a bad alternator.

I've seen parasitic alternators before grin

Then always disconnect it b4 going to bed, it will even help protect ur car from bad boys who will leave ur car for u when it doesn't start for dem. Also will help u save money buying another alternator
