Problem overview

Some Nissan NV200 owners report experiencing intermittent crank-no-start issues, often accompanied by a slight sputter and no diagnostic codes. These problems may stem from the engine not receiving the necessary air, fuel, and spark, indicating potential issues with the fuel system, ignition system, or air intake. Additionally, poor engine grounds have been noted as a possible cause for these intermittent starting failures. In colder temperatures, particularly when the vehicle is driven only short distances before being turned off, some owners encounter similar crank-no-start problems. Loose or corroded grounds on the ECM, faulty relays or fuses, and poor electrical connections between the ECM and the vehicle can also contribute to these starting difficulties. It is advisable for owners to check the fuel system, inspect ignition components, verify the air intake system, and ensure clean engine grounds. If the issue persists, consulting a mechanic or dealership with Nissan expertise may be necessary for a thorough diagnosis.
