I bought a pathfinder once. The dealer wanted $3500 for it. I tested it and it acted like it need new injectors. I asked him if he had any work done on it and he said he just had the whole lower unit done. I told him I would give him 1500 because I would most likely have to buy injectors for it and put them in. I got home and was messing around with it and checking the injectors. My hand was on a wire loom that went to the injectors and it started running smooth as silk. Whoever did the work on it didn’t connect the loom all the way. So I cleaned the connections, reconnected it and drove that car for five years before I traded it in for a new truck.

In my experience garages always want to replace parts at the first sign of a fault code. Always worth checking connections, seals and joints as best you are able before going ahead with expensive part replacements. Just remember to reset you fault codes after the clean (disconnecting the battery will do this on most cars).

Around 6:30 you check the battery, enter 575 CCA which is the label rating, and the tester says 1008 CCA. Then you check the second battery. You're seeing 1008CCA because the batteries are wired in parallel. Each battery is averaging 504CCA.
