Murano Hybrid Fuel Pump Issues

I'm having trouble with my 2016 Nissan Murano Hybrid. It has 119677 kilometers on it, and I think the fuel pump is defective. Sometimes the engine won't start, it stalls at idle, and the check engine light is on. Also, the engine runs rough, and my fuel consumption is higher than usual. The diagnostic scan stored an error. Could this be a defective cable or plug connection?

Hey, I had similar issues with my Murano (not sure what year mine is). Engine stalling and the check engine light were the first things I noticed. Have you checked the fuel pump relay? That was the culprit for me a while back. Could be a cheap fix before you start tearing into the fuel pump itself.

Thanks for the quick response. I hadn't thought about the fuel pump relay. Can you tell me more about your experience? Did you see any other symptoms besides the engine stalling and the check engine light? Did you also have rough engine running or increased fuel consumption?

Yeah, after a while the rough idling came too, and I noticed I was filling up more often. Honestly, after the relay didn't fix it, I took it to a shop. Turned out to be some connector issue, so I would definitely check the cables and plugs as you thought. I would say take it in.

Thanks for the help. I checked the cable and plug connections of the fuel pump. It was a defective plug connection. The repair cost 95€. Your shared experience helped me resolve this.
