Primastar Gear Selection Display Fault

I am writing to inquire about a potential fault with my 2008 Nissan Primastar diesel. The gear selection display in the speedometer is non-functional. Symptoms include inability to engage gears, implausible automatic transmission behavior, gearbox slippage/unclean shifts, and grinding noises. Error codes are also present in the memory.

Summary of the thread

The gear selection display in a 2008 Nissan Primastar diesel is non-functional, leading to issues such as inability to engage gears, implausible automatic transmission behavior, gearbox slippage, unclean shifts, and grinding noises. Error codes are present, suggesting a potential fault. The problem is consistent, with the display completely blank, indicating a likely defective control unit. A workshop diagnosis confirmed the defective control unit, recommending its replacement.

I had a similar issue with my Nissan Primastar. Is the digital display showing any signs of life at all, or is it completely blank? Does the problem occur intermittently or constantly?

The display is completely blank. The issue is constant, occurring every time I start the vehicle. Do you suspect a defective control unit as well?

Given the consistency of the problem and the blank display, it does sound like a defective control unit, as was the case with my van. I would recommend a visit to a workshop for diagnosis.

Thank you for the insight. I have arranged an appointment with a workshop. The diagnosis indicates a defective control unit requiring replacement, with an estimated cost of 1000€.
