You wouldn't happen to have this recall info? I can't find any info on the issue you are referring to.
Thanks

I can find NO INFO on this supposed recall............If you unplug the sensor you will compromise the charging system. It uses that sensor to monitor/change the charge rate.

Hi OBX. Just checking to see if you're still running ok with the sensor disconnected. I have a 2019 w/starting issues and disconnected my sensor this morning. Took a run to the store and it's charging solid without the needle moving.

One weird thing I noticed is that when it refuses to start with the pushbutton, I can sometimes (but not always) start with my Viper remote start which immediately kills the engine when I try to put it in gear (designed that way) but then it'll usually start with the button. It's a real head scratcher.

I also have been using Nissan batteries since I bought the vehicle new, and have a Odyssey batter on order as a replacement. I don't trust the Nissan batteries and they have replaced 2 of them when I took it in for charging/starting problems.

Here's my latest reading after disconnecting the sensor. The charge was 12.1v before I pulled the plug on the sensor.

Would appreciate your comments..thanks!

I fixed my occasional no start by replacing the brake light switch. What I found was went out to dinner with my wife and another couple who has the same vehicle is when both of our cars would not start when leaving the restaurant they only started when the brake lights illuminated. I had them hit the brake pedal several times while holding the button and as soon as the lights illuminated the car started.

That's a new one! My dealership said my bake switch is ok when I had it in the shop a year or so ago. Is that the same switch as the "brake light switch"?
So you keep the button depressed and pump the brake until it starts? Am I reading this correctly?

Thanks for your reply!

That's exactly what I did it happened on both vehicles I was able to verify it on both vehicles and as soon as the brake lights come in the car would start. And I'm not sure I haven't looked this up but when I called to order two brake light switches I was told there is a recall on them. The problem is the switch is $45 and is not worth my time going back to the dealer so we're fixing it at my shop

Very interesting. May I ask how you plan to repair the switch? I might be inclined to do the same thing on mine.

There is no repair you have to replace it mine is a 19.
