Terrano Control Module Cable Issue

I've got a 2006 Nissan Terrano diesel with a weird problem at only 26436 km. Driving mode errors pop up randomly, error lights flicker, and the audio and navigation systems are acting up, sometimes shutting down or going unresponsive. My OBD-II tool found an error stored. Could a bad control module cable connection to the BUS system be the culprit?

Summary of the thread

A 2006 Nissan Terrano is experiencing random driving mode errors, flickering error lights, and issues with the audio and navigation systems. The problem might be due to a faulty control module cable connection to the BUS system, as indicated by inconsistent communication errors found using an OBD-II tool. A similar issue was resolved by checking and repairing the cable connection, suggesting this as a potential solution.

Sounds familiar! I had similar issues with my Terrano – sporadic errors, especially with the audio/navigation, plus warning lights. Did the scan tool give you any specific error codes? Does it happen more in certain weather or after driving for a while?

Thanks! The scan tool showed various communication errors within the CAN bus system, but the codes weren't consistent. Weather doesn't seem to matter. The errors appear randomly, no matter the engine temp or how long I've been driving. Did yours act the same way, and were your error codes all over the place too?

Yep, inconsistent error codes and random failures sound exactly like what I went through. Turns out it was a faulty control unit cable connection to the BUS system. Given your symptoms and error codes, that's likely your issue too. I'd get a good technician to check the cable connection for damage. Cost me 155€, and it fixed the problem.

Thanks for sharing your experience! That confirms my suspicions about the cable connection. I'll book an appointment with a trusted workshop to get it checked out and fixed. Appreciate the help!
