I keep charging the battery of my 370z Nismo nearly every night but after I have driven for a short while, then park up and lock, the alarm goes off every ten minutes.
There is an odd thing happening, if I put the car in reverse and the reverse camera comes on, the in-car battery volt metre reads 14, when I take it out of reverse, it goes down to 13. Please help, is this an electrical fault, how can I fix this- problems always seem to happen just after the warranty runs out.
Thanks,
Jo

we do not have that model in USA so no real information on it. However I am going off of a Sentra here it has a battery current sensor on negative cable as well as a module either of those could be a problem. So a mechanic will need to scan for codes. You might contact the dealer to see If there are any service bulletins on your problem as this may be covered .
