P0501 is an OBD2 trouble code that indicates there is an issue with your Dodge Nitro’s Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS). It occurs when the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) gets a signal from the VSS outside its normal operating range (in terms of voltage). P0501 is a generic powertrain code, which means it has the same … Read more
P0008 is a somewhat uncommon OBD2 trouble code that can occur in the Dodge Nitro. It indicates that the crankshaft and camshaft are not synchronized properly, and should be considered a breakdown risk. Driving your Nitro with P0008 can lead to engine damage and a costly repair. While P0008 is a generic code (it has … Read more
P0725 is a common OBD2 code that can occur in the Dodge Nitro. It indicates an issue with the engine speed sensor input circuit (which measures the engine speed at the input shaft and helps the PCM determine when and how hard to shift the transmission). It’s a generic code, which means it has the … Read more
P0193 is a generic OBD-II code that can occur in the Dodge Nitro. It indicates that your Nitro’s fuel rail pressure sensor is sending a signal to the PCM that is above its normal operating range (in terms of voltage value). While P0193 is a generic code (it has the same meaning for any vehicle … Read more
P1128 is a manufacturer-specific troubled code. In the case of the Dodge Nitro, it indicates that the engine did not enter “closed-loop” fueling on the bank 1 side. If any other codes appear with P1128, start with them since this code does NOT indicate what has caused the engine not to go into closed-loop operation. … Read more
P0523 is a standard OBD2 trouble code that can occur in the Dodge Nitro. In layman’s terms, it indicates the signal from the oil pressure sensor is higher than its normal operating range (in terms of voltage). P0523 is generic (it has the same definition for all vehicles), repair steps will depend on your Nitro’s … Read more
P0705 is a very common transmission-related trouble code that can occur in the Dodge Nitro. In layman’s terms, it means that your Nitro can’t tell what gear you’ve selected, which can have some real consequences on how it drives. It’s most likely caused by a bad Transmission Range Sensor (TRS), but there are other causes … Read more
Chrysler-made vehicles, such as the Dodge Nitro, commonly use an oil pump with a high-pressure mode and a low-pressure mode. P06DD is stored in the PCM’s (powertrain control module) memory when the engine is stuck in low-pressure mode. P06DD is a very common code to find in the Nitro. P06DD can be caused by a … Read more
Daytime running lights (or DRL) are specialized lights that come on when your Dodge Nitro’s regular headlights are turned off. Their purpose is to make it easier for other drivers to see you, theoretically decreasing the odds of getting into an accident. If your Nitro’s DRL warning light is on, the powertrain control module (commonly … Read more
