In this video I show the steps and procedures I use to properly diagnose a bad IPDM And a bad engine relay. IPDM Stands for intelligent power distribution module. And Nissan uses them and all of their vehicles to control all the electric functions of the vehicle including the ECM. The ECM or engine relay or sometimes referred to as ignition relay is located in the IPDM. A bad engine really can give you a no start condition. As well as low power condition, also a stalling condition where the engine turns off unexpectedly. A bad eye PDM can give you issues with your wipers, headlights, AC compressor, condenser fan, and various other electronica components in the vehicle. When you purchase a intelligent power distribution module from Nissan it will come with a brand new AC relay and all the fuses already installed for you. I hope this helps some of you out. if you have any questions or comments feel free to leave something In the comment section and make sure to check the links in the description for the parts and tools are used during this video. Thank you for watching

THANK YOU. This makes up for all the Bubba's I listened to over the last hour.
Hey man can you tell me what relay runs the brake lights I don’t see it on the back of the cover
hi! I've a Nissan Nv300 1.6 145cv x82 2017 (van), and since some electrical problems I had with the charging system back in december (fixed), my front wipers are not working. According to my mechanic, he tested the wipers motor, the relay and everything seems ok… he saids that may be some electronic module… so I really want to do this IPDM selfcheck. The problem is that this VAN has not any "door" button that you can just press. Do you know how to do it in a VAN without this simple button? Ntw Thanks a lot for the video!!!
You're kinda hosed if you're needing to jump a fuel pump relay. Since there isn't one.
I have no tail lights or license plate lights 2013 sentra??? Any thoughts..all other lights work, there is nothing labeled tail fuse
What scan tool you recommend
Thanks for your video. I have a 2013 rogue. The vehicle will not start after it’s parked for 10-20mins. It will only start after 30min. I think it’s a IDPM problem. It is possible to reprogram it or I have to replace it? What’s your opinion?
Great testing nivr one
Hello what if I cant get into test mode?
So this could be why i sometimes cant start after shut off, as well as my headlights operating in odd ways. Only have a high beam on pass. Side and both on driver but no running lights on driver side
HOW DID YOU GET COVERS OFF SO FAST? LEFT SIDE SUPER TIGHT FOR MY FINGERS
So what if the wiper don't come on even if the fuse are good
Does this ipdm self test work on all Nissans? And what year is this titan?
i have an 08 titan. whenever the truck has sat and the weather is cold, the truck takes forever to start. Very long crank and this only happens after it has sat in cold weather. During summer, i do not have any issues. is this a relay issue? anyone else with this issue??
My 2008 Nissan Titan is going into limp mode and says it has a voltage A high and I have no idea what that means. How could I test this
Hey… nice video…I have an Armada 2006 which suddenly the rear door do not open electronically, passenger window don't works, any of the locks only open/close with the alarm beeper.. I thought that replacing the power module can fix this, but now I see you mentioned some different things that can cause different issues… Any idea? Thanks in Advances!!
Good night is that work on those Nissan note right hand drive
Would this trigger the diagnosis even it it's on lock mode?
Great vid. I have a 2011 frontier throws a maf code but after i replaced it, the engine light went off and it ran like crap for about 20 mins then the engine light came back on and the truck started to idol and run just fine again. Could this be a bad ecu relay going out as you mentioned in this video?
Lots of great tips thanks for sharing
Thank you Sir
Very helpful…
So if it doesn't process the self test
