Question:
I have a 2008 Nissan Xterra and I bought the kit from this video: C56225 and did everything exactly like in the video and everything works except for my running lights. I used a tester and the running light pin isnt showing a signal either. Any Ideas?

Expert Reply:
A common issue with Nissan vehicles is a missing relay in the in-cab fuse panel like your 2008 Nissan Xterra. You will need one of the blue relays from the Curt Relay Kit # C57000 to take care of that. See attached picture to see where to install the relay.
