Was driving my wife's Murano and I went to turn and the steering was crazy difficult tried accelerating nothing looked and all of the dash lights were on. Went to restart the car and it didn't want to turn over took about 5 seconds with the key turned. No codes were thrown anyone have any idea? The transmission just got replaced
Example: "...the steering was crazy difficult tried accelerating nothing looked and all of the dash lights were on."
My suggestion would be to check the battery cables at both ends, since it's a slight possibility that there's a loose cable or ground making intermittent contact. (That's an S.W.A.G at best.)
If you don't find anything obvious, your options are to either wait for it to happen often enough that you can spot a pattern to diagnose, or to take it in to a shop. This could be one of those problems that is hard to find until it becomes a regular recurrence - which would certainly be a pain!!
I don't think it's electrical because the radio was still on and air was still blowing... I guess I should have added some punctuation. The steering wheel was difficult to turn, I tried to accelerate to see if it would make it easier to turn (my power steering hose are leaking) and I the car didn't accelerate (because it was of) i looked at my dash and all of the lights were on.
I'm thinking maybe my fuel pump is going out or I have a clogged fuel line that every once in awhile doesn't let enough fuel through to keep the car running...
I had the exact same problem yesterday, with the addition of the Check Engine light staying on. It happened to my 06 AWD at a traffic light, twice. The first time, I turned it off, then back on (started after about 3 seconds) and the light went off. It happened again a few hours later, but this time the light stayed on. How do I pull the codes to find out what the problem is?
Many parts stores will connect an OBDII reader for you and get the codes. I believe that AutoZone is one of those places. At any rate, an OBDII reader is needed - they're not terribly expensive.
