Electrical problem
2001 Nissan Quest 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

recently my wife was driving her van on broken motor mounts. She hit a pothole drove van to work then it wouldnt start when she got out of work. Had a friend find out ground from computer was disconnected. Repaired it but then instruments on panel wopuldnt work unless you pressed brakes. Then replaced engine and tranny mounts and ac clutch. Now car will start but gauges dont work at all charging system, radiator fan, and ac clutch wont ingage. My friend checked all those parts and there good. Seems to get no power somwhere past the battery

Hi moots24,

Thank you for the donation.

Check the following:

1. Fuse J ( 75 A ) in under hood fuse/fusible link box.

2. Fuse L ( 20 A ) underdash fuse box.

3. Fuse B ( 140 A ) underhood

4. Fuse 29 ( 10 A ) under dash

Does the charge indicator light come on when the ignition switch is turned on?

Check Fuse K in fusible link box underhood.

At ignition switch test for battery voltage at White/Purple wire. Battery voltage should be present.

Fuel pump relay receives its power from Fuse # 43 in fusible link box and Fuse # 29 underdash.

Are you getting battery voltage at the relay terminals?

I have the exact same problem on my 2000 Quest. Had motor mounts replaced, a month later car is running rough so I take it to the mechanic. Suddenly it won't start at all without jumping the fuel pump. No instrument cluster.
I suspect a bad ground(s) (fuses and links check out). Mechanic thinks the harness is bad. Any ideas where to start? Moots24, did you locate the problem?

Hello Moots24. Did you ever resolve the problem? I have almost the exact same issue, down to the motormounts being recently replaced.
