Kubistar fuel filter heater issue

I'm having trouble with my 2008 Nissan Kubistar diesel. It has 164011 km. Engine power is down, response is poor, fuel consumption is up, and the idle is uneven. The error memory shows a fuel filter heater error. Could a bad fuel filter heater cause these symptoms?

A 2008 Nissan Kubistar diesel was experiencing reduced engine power, poor response, increased fuel consumption, and uneven idle, with an error indicating a fuel filter heater issue. The problem was traced to a defective cable connection to the fuel filter heater. Repairing the cable resolved the symptoms, restoring the vehicle's performance.

I had similar symptoms with my Kubistar. Check the cable and plug connection to the fuel filter heater. A bad connection there can cause those issues.

Thanks. What exactly was wrong with your connection? Was it visibly damaged, or did you use a multimeter?

I didn't dive that deep. I wiggled the plug, and the issue improved temporarily, so I knew it was that connection. I'd recommend a workshop; it’s probably a faulty cable, and it's better to have it properly fixed.

Thanks for the advice. I took it to a workshop. The cable to the fuel filter heater was defective. The repair cost 95€, and the issues are resolved.
