What causes a Pathfinder’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate?

The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your Pathfinder can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.

Can you clear the Pathfinder check engine light on your own?

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your Pathfinder's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue. Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your Pathfinder.

How serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my Pathfinder?

If you experience a drivetrain malfunction in your Pathfinder, it is important to have it inspected by a professional mechanic as soon as possible to identify the underlying cause and perform the necessary repairs. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can be dangerous and cause further damage to your car.

Does my Pathfinder transmission belong to the drivetrain system?

Yes, the drivetrain system in your Pathfinder includes the transmission. Other components in the drivetrain are the driveshaft, axles, and differential. Together, these components deliver power from the engine to the wheels to push your Pathfinder forward.
