Electrical problem
2000 Nissan Maxima V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

I took the car up to the dealer to look at it b/c our normal mechanic suggested it. The power door locks, all dome / vanity lights, and rear defrost went out at the same time. The fuses were checked, relays checked, and the dealer beleives that it is the Body control module is the problem. They want to charge a huge amout to fix it, i have found a replacement BCM from a 99 maxima, is it compatable?

Hello –

Thanks for the info…………

The engine size can be located in the engine bay looking around at some of the decal information.

Well, the bad news is the auto manufacture doesn’t release that info to us.

My suggestion is to check with the parts department to see if they have the same part number.

Also, once you have the part number I have attached a website below that folks have had excellent results with getting their BCMs from them.
