The battery is new. I have had a new starter put into it (Three times?? They thought it was a bad part). After the third time out of the shop and it was still happening they disconnected the alarm system and keyless entry thinking that was were it was shorting out, but it did not help at all. Same thing is still happening!! So now not only will my pathfinder not start at random, but now I do not have features that I use to have?
If anyone has any feedback I would highly appreciate it. This is becoming a very annoying and very expensive problem. In addition, it is not getting fixed!!! Please Help!!!

I have had similar problems with my 91. I replaced several starters. Things to check, Pull your alternator and have it bench tested. That was my problem. Also spray some electrical contact cleaner on your connection at the starter. The oil filter is located just above the starter and when the filter is changed oil can run down on to the selinoid and cause it to not work correctly. The starters on these pathfinders have a history of being shotty and unreliable. Let me know if this helps.
