@EliborI took some type of upgrade, then the screen went black. It came on once for about 30 mins. Any fix ideas?

@EliborI fixed the issue!!! 2018 nissan pathfinder sl display control unit!!!
After trying fuses and relays, I went to the dealership paid $201.85 for a diagnostic test, (for nothing a waste of money) they said it was the display control unit, and also I needed to change filters. Which I’ve done myself with filters from auto zone way cheaper than Nissan prices. To replace the DISPLAY CONTROL UNIT at the dealership it would cost around $5,000 US dollars. They tried to get me to trade my car in which I was not doing because it’s finally paid in full. So I left tried reaching out to local shops and mechanics. No one was able to fix the issue. So I went on YouTube and trained myself on how to remove the display screen. Then I went on EBay and found the exact display information screen for my make and model. (2018 Nissan Pathfinder SL ) it arrived in like two days with Fed Ex. I paid $178.50 plus taxes $191 TOTAL & free shipping. My fiancé and I installed it today and THANK GOD IT WORKS!!!! Took us less than 2hrs.

Javelin from Australia a year ago
I’m in AUSTRALIA and I just changed my radio head for one with the same numbers and still unit won’t start. After 30 minutes of driving it comes on and all works. I’m thinking a relay not contacting properly but does not match up with why.
DCUFix from Canada a year ago
For anyone else who has this issue, it's most likely a fault with the DCU (Display Control Unit); specifically a Micro SD Card inside the DCU.

Disclaimer: I own the website I'm about to link

See this article here: https://dcufix.com/2025/06/02/denso-dc…
It details the failure, and how to fix it.

Check engine light and power loss

Nissan Pathfinder 2003  116000 miles
The first problem that appeared was the the check engine light remains turned on. The error code suggests that there is a fuel leakage. The smoke machine was connected but nothing could be detected. I've changed the fuel lid but the check engine light is still on. The other problem that it has is power loss: when I am driving along an uphill road, the car won't go over 20 mph. If I remove the gear and put it neutral then the acceleration problem disappears. An error code has appeared suggesting that there is a valve failing but my mechanic said that was not the cause. It's been a year that I'm driving with these two inconvenients, can someone help me please?

Why don't you visit another mechanic and see what he suggests? It happened to me and, after visiting four different experts, the last found the cause of the problem and it was nothing too huge or expensive that needed to be repaired.
kiah from Australia 11 years ago
HI There, I have the same problem with my Nissan Pathfinder my mechanic said that the exhaust gas regulator value was very badly clogged up with carbon dioxide deposits. He found that problem the second time I complained that the engine light was on and on occasions power loss when accelerating. If I stopped and turned off the car then started it again the power came back.

Intermittent Limp Mode / No Acceleration Issue

Nissan Pathfinder 2013 Model S 97000 miles
“It started with the battery light coming on. I replaced the battery and the alternator. Now the battery light no longer comes on, but all the other dashboard lights do, and the problem still persists. While driving, I lose power: the RPMs go up but the vehicle won’t accelerate. Multiple systems stop working (radio, A/C, power steering, etc.). If I turn the vehicle off for 30 minutes or more, the issue goes away, but it returns sporadically. Sometimes after restarting, the dashboard lights are off but it still won’t accelerate. ”

Electric trailer brake controller not connecting to trailer brakes

Nissan Pathfinder 2024 SL/3.5L 10000 miles
Cannot get an electric brake controller to recognize when my 7-pin trailer plug is connected to the 7-pin receptacle on the vehicle. Trailer wiring is okay. Brake controller has also been checked. Brake controller gets power when connected to the factory-installed harness under the dashboard, but there’s no power to pin #7 at the back of the vehicle. There’s no continuity between the wire for the trailer brake under the dash and pin #7 at the rear. Nissan is unable to assist.

Sounds like you're missing a fuse for the towing circuit

Cranks but no start

Nissan Pathfinder 1996 4x4 296873 miles
It turns over but won't start. The lights on the dash that always light up just before you start your car are dim-lit for a few seconds and then I hear a sort of click sound and then I can get it to start to crank. It will only crank for a few seconds then I hear a click under the dash and it stops cranking the engine over until I wait a few seconds again. Oh and some of the dash lights are bright but some stay dim.

Digital gas marker and needle

Nissan Pathfinder 2013  4500 miles
I've been having trouble with my car's digital fuel marker and the needle, which are two different systems to check and know when fuel needs to be added. The problem is that they do not correspond to one another, for example: the needle says 1/4 tank is full and the digital marker (which supposedly informs how much fuel is left in term of miles) says 30 miles. After adding some fuel to the car, the needle reacher 1/2 of the tank and the marker only raised 5 miles. Something is wrong with my car and I don't know what.
