Hi all
New to the 4x4 scene so be gentle lol.
I've just purchased a terrano 3.0sve 2005 and when.I turn the ignition key at normal speed the starter engages but jumps out and won't start but if I turn the key slowly it turns over fine and starts. Any ideas??
Cheers daz

Welcome to the best site for all things Nissan 4x4.

Yours is a common fault, it is the ignition switch, usually the rear contact block.
This is a dealer only part, but is quite cheap to replace.

best regards,
Rustic

Most probably... but other members that have changed them will be able to advise, I would wait a while for their input.


No doubt, you will be asked to show "Pics" of your truck, before the morning is out lol...

You will enjoy this club, we have more collective knowledge on these trucks than any main dealer. We also like cheap fixes.

If you spend your £10 on the annual joining fee, you will then start to fix faults that you never knew you had lol... Some fixes are free...

Just in case you hadn't noticed, I have had my Mav from new for over 20 years...

Hi and welcome aboard. Yeah normally when people post with similar issues turning key slowly is one of the things people suggest to try.
I've seen the ignition switch on ebay but not sure if brand new or second hand which could be just as worn as yours assuming it is the switch of course. The switch has a single screw that holds it to the bottom of the lock barrel, the screw is a pig to get to but not too bad.

So if this has fixed ya truck it's gotta be worth membership as Rustic says. Theres stacks of workshop downloads available and banter too when you have full access.

Hi mate and welcome

A video of you starting the truck pointing at the ignition barrel as your doing it would be great as we could tell you for certain if it's the ignition switch or not.

I wouldn't have thought a 2005 would have suffered with this My 1996 Maverick was terrible, the barrel was loose and the key would sometimes fall out it was that worn. My 2004 is solid as a rock, doesn't move and inch in the barrel.

Hi mate and welcome, yes from your description it is the switch block on the back of the ignition switch/barrel, easy and cheap fix to replace, but would not bother with second hand, those that say odd for a 2004 are forgetting that Nissan did a lot of cost cutting on the later models, so they rust quicker and break easier, they probably cut the grease in the switch, Rick

Sorry just read this first thread, usually a good thing to do before commenting

Mine does exactly the same thing, have to turn slowly otherwise it goes past the "on" stage.

Something else you might experience is the radio, blowers ect not working, engine is running but ignition ect is off thats an interesting one...

This is what I mean!!!! I'm sure the later ones look like a different metal to the earlier ones and I've not seen a wore one yet!!!!
