Replacing the battery fuse on a Nissan Frontier. 

Here's an affiliate link to the Fuse and Tester Fuse amzn.to/2Lscboq Tester Kit w/ Fuses (Except 80amp) amzn.to/32x39fp Best Headlamp for working on Engine amzn.to/34zLWDT This the is held in by two bolt which makes this a 20-30 minute job rather than a 2 minute job. But with a few simple tools and some patience, anyone with average mechanical ability should be able to handle this task. The fuse burned out as the result of jumping the truck after the battery died. The cables got crossed (not blaming anyone) and the fuse blew. After the battery was replaced, the truck still didn't start. The fuse was the next thing to check. It was burned through and a trip to the parts store $3 and 30 minutes later the truck was back on the road. So if you cross the cables don't despair. It's a cheap and relatively easy fix.

*This battery reconditioning program exceeded my presumptions. It worked on any drill battery, several AA and AAA batteries, **batery.repair** and any camera battery. The steps are simple and the act itself is exciting to do. No matter what type of battery you`ve got, it is sure to function again!*

Making use of the ru-vid.comUgkxcJ22tnHH9l1vjdIdEIG27iOG55P7LXI8 reconditioning plan, I just saved 2 auto batteries from being completely junked. The guides were very simple to follow. I wish I would have found this years ago! You may use the guide to recondition any battery type

98’ Nissan Frontier here, I crossed some jumper cables for the first time and felt dumb and worried till I watched this video. A trip to autozone and $4.99 later she fired right up. Thanks!!

You saved me a $1,700 repair part and the labor charge to install it. I would have had to buy a fusebox and wiring harness for $1,700 plus the installation charge and maybe a towing charge to get this Frontier to the Nissan shop, if I had followed my local Nissan dealership's advice. Another shop may have gotten it for half that money, but nobody yet has found another fusebox for sale without the wiring harness. I gave your channel a Thumbs Up and Subscribed. I have had this Frontier for twenty years. The top electrical service technician at my local Nissan dealership thought that the 80 amp battery fuse had become too hot and melted and fused itself permanently into the fusebox. He made no mention of the 2 bolts on each side of the fuse that were holding it in the fusebox. And, the 2 prongs on the fuse are solid copper, which doesn't melt easily. Nissan refused to replace the fuse because they thought that it would pull the fusebox out with the fuse, since he thought that it was melted together. I watched your video twice and picked out some tools and replaced the fuse. And, after I left Nissan yesterday, I drove my Frontier to 2 other places (which I won't name) who also didn't know how to replace the fuse because they didn't know about those 2 bolts on the side. How did I start it with a blown fuse to drive it to other shops? We crossed over the fuse with a screwdriver, because we had broken the fuse into a dozen pieces trying to pull it out with needle nose pliers because we hadn't watched your video and didn't know about those 2 bolts that were holding the fuse in.

thank you! as a mechanic I was having the greatest time trying to figure out why the battery fuse would not remove itself while all the others had no issues. THANKS

Late night. Changed battery from old to new. Noticed the car would not start and figured the cables were lose. Quickly realized I hooked the cables wrong and left them that way for 5 minutes or so. Going to have to run to the store tonight and replace. Thanks for making this look easy.

Sir, I just so happen to own a 99 Nissan Frontier and I just may have crossed the jumper cables the other day. (I'm really not that dumb, the light was very dim and....you know) I just want to say that your video was spot on. Well made, good information and it worked. It was a super easy fix and your video gave me confidence to get that fuse replaced. Thanks very much.

Thanks very much for putting this together, a bad day going downhill and you came up with the right answers. Had some help that did not quite work out, box was a challenge until I listened closely re. the front sliding locks. Take care, appreciate your time!!

You may have saved my life today. This fuse has caused me so much grief. You have no idea. Thanks alot! I see this post is super old, but it sure helped me out. I shorted the jumper cable leads together.

Thank You so much as a female I did it with your video My 2001 was a little different on the easy side it had a long tab in the middle that blended in with the entire cas. Who' ever designed that should be shot obviously they never had ro change the fuse! Again you saved me alot of money at the shop! Thank You 🙏

Dude .. I CANNOT THANK you enough for that video....a million thank you’s... seriously lol... you most likely saved me a grand

Thanks. I was ready to give up. Those inside clips were a pain. Thanks again.

Hey I really appreciate this video. It just walked me through. I know nothing about vehicles and don't have anyone I can really turn to for help so thanks for posting.

You saved a lot of brute work for me with this video....Tank you

Just saved me a lot of work. Fuse was burned through and I was only getting power to the blower and some other ancillary systems, but the aux. lights and stuff wouldn't light up on ACC and obviously nothing to the starter. Tried various known good batteries to same effect. Tried to just pull the fuse out and the brittle plastic exploded, leaving the two prongs, so I thought I needed a whole new holder unit. Nope, just gotta get it out and pull the bolts and put a new fuse in (and a 40A one I accidentally exploded with a tool lol).

Fixed my problem. Thanks for the video. Worked like a charm

Thank you so much!! I finally got the car running after crossing the battery. That 80 fuse blew.

You got it right. It was my eyes going bad on me. Thanks Bud.

Cars really clean

Great Job.Very informative

Thank you very much, ,,and God bless you, ,,very helpful vid

Saved the day man! Thanks a mil!

This works on an 02 xterra as well. It was a 100a fuse, but same procedure. I blew it again because someone marked the negative side red, so I'm on attempt no. 2.. this time a 120a fuse should do the trick. Thanks, this video helped me alot. Pain in the ace to get those screws back in though, gotta hand it to nissan marketing.

This helped a lot. Thank you!!

Same battery fuse was blown on my 2000 Nissan Frontier XE (2.4L 5 speed). Which cause my truck to have no power at all to any systems when trying to start her up at a parking lot. I was over here trying to pull it out but thanks for demonstrating on how to replace it. Lol 👌 In my case, i also had to replace the battery since it was completely dead. According to my multimeter it only had 10.70v

That was fantastic and very hopeful big thank you from Kuwait 👍🙏

Thanks for help. God bless you!

Remove the negative cable first. Always!!!

Thanks, for the great tip.

You saved my a$$. Thank you sir

You save my life muchas gracias.

Good job

Thanks!

I tore mine apart trying to get it out. Now I know why…..😂

Thanks for the video I couldn't figure out how to get to the other fuse box it was a pain I talked to various other ppl none of them could remember how to access the fuse box

You can by pass this by taking a wire and putting it on the positive terminal, then putting it on the batter main bolt and nut that is sticking up, if you really need to go to work etc...

help please!! i have a 1999 frontier and the horn its not working , i tried looking for a fuse related to the horn but nothing

I sure hope your still around and can help. I am so at a loss. I parked my 2012 frontier in the garage but it would not stop rolling after parked. Tried several times and then decided to cut it off. Well it stopped rolling but wont start now. It has a ringing, buzzing... a sound... coming from the front of the engine when the key is turned over too. I am totally alone. 60 year old grandma... I can not get it out of the garage. Do you have any clue? Thank you ver much in advance for any help! I truly appreciate it ❤

I'm having trouble I cnt open it to get through the fuse

My Nissan Frontier super charged takes 120 fuse and they didn’t have that one at the store so I used a 100 and the stereo was dead. I hope I didn’t cause further damage by blowing that fuse

Yo thanks for this video my dude you are a savior man!! - QUESTION?? .... what wrench or tool did you use to get those bolts off ?? I feel like I can’t fit anything. I don’t want to pull it too high and mess up the wires

Hello thanks for thé video :-) i just buy Nissan Frontier 2006. 6cyl 4l. But the battery light- break - and sealt belt are open in dash. The battery and alternator are new. Can someone help me please. I see wire broke under the driver side ( maybe it's one of the ground ) thanks for helping me.

What were the symptoms of this vehicle?

I blew two fuses trying to reconnect the battery after installing new fuse

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! (Subscribing)🚙

we just replaced our fuse and we got a brand new battery and connected it and the fuse started getting hot and the truck still wont turn on, do you think the wiring to the fuse could be messed up? and how do we fix that if it is?

Like this app

Uao fuiste una tabla de salivación

My friend l have a question, ,,that fuse can cause, ,no power on the dash when turn the ignition to on position? ??? No power nada! !!

Was the fuse box making a clicking noise and the lights flash?

I’m wondering if this will work for my 2008 Nissan Versa? Someone put my battery in wrong I’m assuming while I was away for about six months.

I have a 1997 Frontier and this happened to me but i dont know where that fuse is located in this truck could you help me with this?

The main positive battery terminal fusible link has blown about 3 times in the last 3 years. Started to get really annoying but I knew nothing about cars, shorts or shit. Then last week it blew TWICE in a single day. I had it towed to firestone because I was tired of buying $40+ fusible link each time when its just gonna blow again (and I had an overheating issue which I was set to be seen there for that day...apparently it's just coincidence that the overheating and fuse blowing happened at the same time, according to firestone). Anyway, apparently firestone isn't really a place that would diagnose such an issue but I've been studying and researching 24/7 since then about various issues in my car. And it appears to me there must be a short on the cable that goes from the battery positive terminal to the starter or possibly the negative terminal to the transmission. I have no idea how easily it would be to find a short visually in those cables because my car is still at firestone but I'll be getting it back soon so ill start there

Things like this would make it very satisfying to bitch smack the engineer who thought it was a good idea... I mean seriously wtf.

A bad fuse will make the battery drain?

Thank you for saving my wallet. 🤑🤑

My engine fuse keeps on blowing out i put a new it starts but then i turn it then back on but when i do it blows the fuse but my truck stays on when i turn it off and then restart it wont turn on..

I have a nizzan frontier 1998 it starts but doesn't charge, has new battery and alternator

Would this cause crank no start conditions

What's the fuse called ?

I love his beards!

I connected my battery wrong by mistake and now my car doesn’t crank or nothing, now that I have the battery connected properly I only get power to the radio but my car is a no crank no start, do you think this fuse can cause a no crank no start for my situation?

Nissan just HAS to make shit difficult don’t they ??.or is it Japanese revenge ? Hahaha... just kidding

HD vrs Honda. If 1 bolt will hold it and 2 will make sure.. Use 4..and the Japanese invasion began..

This is such a stupid design I'm selling my xterra.
