My wife has a 01 Pathfider with 18,000 miles on it. Runs fine.. Service engine light came on..runs fine..My daughters Sidekick has a hidden "secret" reset switch for her check engine light..120,000 miles..runs great..Does anyone know of such a switch on the Pathfinder ???? Thanks much..undefined

I don't think so. better find out what the code is first before resetting it

If you want to avoid the Stealership, pay a visit to Autozone or other autoparts superstore, as they have code readers to help you on your way to what is truely wrong.

Give them a visit!

Good luck!

This happened to by 02 Pathfinder as well. Engine light comes on with nothing apparently wrong, engine running fine, etc. Turned out to be an 02 sensor problem. Fortunately, it was under warranty and fixed w/o a problem at the "Stealership." ha ha

Yep that's exactly what it sounds like. Had the same problem with my Path back in the day.

I had an '01..light came on for a camshaft sensor with around 34k miles on it. Rented the code reader, spent $70 on the sensor at the dealer and 10mins to swap it out.
