2010 Nissan Sentra

WHILE DRIVING, THE CAR MAY OCCASIONALLY LOSE POWER AND STALL OUT. RATE OF SPEED DOESN'T SEEM TO AFFECT WHETHER THE CAR STALLS. I HAVE TO THROW THE CAR IN PARK REAL FAST AND RE-CRANK IT AND IT TYPICALLY STARTS BACK UP. IF THE CAR WERE TO STALL OUT WHILE MAKING A TURN OR IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, THIS COULD CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT. IT IS UNKNOWN WHAT IS CAUSING THIS, BUT I DID SEE A RECALL ONLINE THAT STATED THE BATTERY TERMINAL MIGHT BE THE CAUSE OF THE LOSS OF ELECTRICAL OPERATION.

THE FUSE FOR THE LOW BEAM 15 AMP THE DRIVER SIDE STARTED TO BLOW REPLACED ONE TIME, LIGHT WOULD WORK AFTER APPROX 2 DAYS BLEW UP AGAIN, REPLACED AND STARTED TO BURN A WIRE FROM THE WIRES UNDER THE FUSE BOX UNDER THE HOOD. I CANNOT PIN POINT WHERE THE WIRE IS BURNING AND NOW THE LIGHT IS VERY DIM AND HIGH BEAM IS NOT WORKING EITHER, BEFORE ONLY THE LOW BEAM WAS THE PROBLEM AND I'M AFRAID IT WILL CATCH FIRE. THE CAR DID NOT GET WET AS THE CAR WAS PARKED FOR ABOUT THREE WEEKS AFTER THE FIRST FUSE REPLACEMENT. THE CAR WAS NOT MOVING AS I WAS REPLACING THE FUSE.

A FEW MONTHS LATER THE BATTERY DIED WHILE IN THE DRIVEWAY, AFTER CHANGING THE BATTERY THE VOLTAGE SPIKE CAUSED THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE TO FAIL.
