OK, I have not figured it out yet, my display shows four Ovals with the tire pressure in them. They are stacked from top to bottom. I am wanting to know which Oval represents which tire, front left, front right, rear left, rear right. I don't know and did not find it in my owners manual. Please help. they should have labeled them so I could be lazy and not have to figure it out. :duh:

The displays are random; they do not indicate which tire is which. As it states in the Owner's Manual, "The order of tire pressure figures displayed on the screen does not correspond with the actual order of the tire position."

Then what the heck is it for then? LOL What nucklehead at Nissan decided not to label them? I don't have NAV, but just think that is a bit weird! :chainsaw:

Hmmmmmmmm

On some Nissans and Infinity's each tire is identified. It is more difficult to do since each sensor would have to be encoded differently, and every time you rotated the tires you would have to have the sensors re-encoded.

Not jumping ship from Nissan to GM, but my girlfriend has an 05 Tahoe and it has LF,RF, LR, RR designation.

If GM can do it, I betya the Japs can! ;-)

Not flaming...just find that tidbit interesting. But I do see your point on the sensor encoding issue, etc.

Does the order change everytime you start the car?

Its a great truck in many ways but that is just one of a number of things the Nissan engineers need a smack in the head for. There is no excuse for them not to be labeled.

i think i figured it out :

1: left front
2: right front
3: right rear
4: left rear

i tested it several times and its the same every time.

Let the air out of one tire at a time and check to see which sensor reads low. The next time you rotate your tires you'll have to do it all over again. The system reads sensor one, two etc. it does not know which wheel sensor one is attached to. There may be some predetermined order from the factory but if you've rotated your tires its no longer that way.
