Problem overview

Some Nissan Juke owners report experiencing issues related to electrical malfunctions that could potentially lead to engine compartment fires. These problems may manifest as engine malfunction warning messages, particularly those that prompt immediate service, along with warning lights such as an orange exclamation mark or a flashing yellow triangle. Additionally, faulty ignition coils and sensors, such as the cam position sensor and crank speed sensor, can trigger these warning alerts. Owners have noted that issues within the electrical system, including malfunctioning spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel injectors, may contribute to engine misfires and increase the risk of fire. To mitigate these risks, regular maintenance checks are recommended to inspect the engine compartment for signs of wear or damage, and to ensure the electrical system is functioning optimally without open fuses. If any electrical malfunctions are suspected, it is advised to seek professional assistance promptly to prioritize safety and address the issue effectively.
