Problem with 2003 Cube??????

[loromo]

PROBLEM: Engine will start, idle for approx 10seconds then cuts off and will not start. It will tumble but not start.
When it is idling the tacho meter will read zero or close to zero, also if you depress the gas pedal it will not accelerate.

TROUBLSHOOTING:Did a Diagnostic, shows no error codes, there is a smell of gas.
Was told it was the throttle body or the ECU.
Changed both and problem continues.

Anyone experienced this OR knows someone who will be able to help?
Thanks.

check your maf sensor to see if the jack unplugged (although this will not stop you from starting)
check your cam or crank sensor
did you engine check light come on?

did you wash your engine when the problem occurred?

cube uses MAP sensor
sounds throttle related though

[loromo]

Thanks for your help guys.

I checked the map sensor, in fact I changed it...did not resolved the problem.
There is no check light or error code coming up.
I changed the entire throttle body with the cover that has the MAP sensor as well.....problem remains.

I removed All the plugs they are all black and is wet with gas... does this mean that I am getting no spark?

Any help??

Try a coolant temperature sensor

Changedthe Cam sensor....problem remains.

Checked the fuel pump it is good.

Is there a Crankshaft Sensor?

Keep your suggestions coming, thanks.

UPDATE:
another mechanic came and his checks.......did not find anything.

Has taken it to an electrician to do his thing(s). Awating his findings.

UPDATE:changed the sensor on the pedal......problem remains
changed the crank sensor..................problem remains

What else to do???????????????

GOT THE PROBLEM:
its the white square box in the engine compartment. This has a lot of fuses and relays inside.
I changed it and proble solved!!!!

book marking this thread.....experiencing a problem similiar to this...

[AKI]

Correct is right the white box or ipdm ( intelligent power distribution module ) is what its called. That was the first step to take in solving that problem . NOTE DO NOT GET IT WET..... It controls the tps, head lights, ac, fogs , injectors.....etc very important little box cost between 700 - 1200 tt depends on the fu parts place... I also have a nissan bz11 2005 cube .....other than that its a great car no problems had mines for 5 years.....
