Car is throwing a p0101 code then shortly after the traction control light comes on then the car will start shacking and will not accelerate. I have already replaced mass air flow sensor with new and cleared codes. I am looking for any fixes for this problem please.

Unfortunately, there are other causes of this code then just the sensor. I attached the complete testing, so we need to run through this and see what turns up from testing.

Let me know if you have questions as you work through this but unfortunately as I said, this is the only way to find out what the cause of this is as it will cause the concern you are seeing.

Hello.

Please see the attached TSB's from Nissan, one is for the original Altima P0101 fault in the original post and one is for your vehicle .. you will need a dealer to update/reprogram your cars ECM/PCM software.

Hope this helps with your repair. Please keep us updated on your repair outcome and do not hesitate to contact us again for further information or assistance.

Thanks for using 2CarPros.
