enter image description hereI have a 2001 Nissan Pathfinder and it intermittently blows the ECCS2 fuse (Passenger Side, under the hood) on start up. When the fuse blows, the truck fails to start, replace the fuse and the truck starts just fine, it will run fine, no hesitation, plenty of power, no stalling, no idle issues (smooth idle at about 6500 rpm). 10-20 start tries later, it blows the fuse again, replace the fuse, no issues, until 10-20 starts later, really annoying. It also has a code P1320, P1705, and P0120. The truck runs fine at all times once started. This has been an issue for a year, but it's time to get the truck emission tested soon. So I need to fix it. Bad Ground somewhere?

Edit: It's fuse number 63 under the hood, passenger side.

Vehicle: 2001 Nissan Pathfinder 3.5L V6

Hi there,

On these a lot of time it's the wiring harness where it comes over the transmission shorting out. This would give you the 1705 code because the inhibitor switch could cause the code.

Hi. My name is Josh and I am having the same problem only now the vehicle wont start at all. As soon as I try to crank it over ot blows the fuse. How hard is it to track down the short and fix it? And is it expensive? Thank you for your time.
