My van has had a wiring problem. For two years the check engine light has been on but the engine is fine. Recently, the traction light came on but nothing was wrong. The front right passenger turning signal light went out. I just had it replaced in February so, I am guessing the wiring is making it burn out. Lastly, once the light was replaced, the open door alarm is going off even though all doors are closed. It stays on while driving.
I love this van and would like to keep it but the mechanic says it will be hard to locate the problem. I just viewed your video about testing wiring and it seems pretty easy. I know you cannot really say without looking but do you think my van can be saved for a reasonable price? Or, if I get a meter perhaps I can tackle the job? I did replace the starter in my Sentra a few years ago.
I would appreciate any advice you can give me.
Sincerely,
Mary-Margaret
