2021-2022 Nissan Rogue MIL On with DTC P062F-00

Symptoms

Owners of affected 2021-2022 Nissan Rogue vehicles may notice the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illuminated on the dashboard. This illumination is specifically linked to the storage of Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P062F-00 in the Engine Control Module (ECM).

Fault Codes / DTCs

When the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) is on, technicians will find the following Diagnostic Trouble Code stored in the ECM:

Code	Description	Module
P062F-00	Internal Control Module EEPROM Error	ECM

This "Internal Control Module EEPROM Error" indicates a problem within the ECM's internal memory.

Diagnosis / Trigger Conditions

To confirm if this bulletin applies to your 2021-2022 Nissan Rogue, a technician will use the CONSULT-III plus diagnostic tool to check the current ECM part number. If the part number matches one of the specific numbers listed in the bulletin (which typically start with 23761-), and the "MIL ON WITH DTC P062F-00 STORED IN THE ECM" condition is present, the vehicle is subject to this service action.

Repair Procedure Summary

The primary repair for the Nissan Rogue MIL P062F-00 issue involves reprogramming the Engine Control Module (ECM). This procedure updates the ECM's software to correct the internal EEPROM error.

Before initiating the reprogramming, technicians must follow several crucial steps to prevent damage to the control unit:

1. Prepare the Diagnostic Tool: Connect the AC Adapter to the CONSULT PC and ensure the CONSULT PC is connected to the internet (Wi-Fi or network cable). Verify that ASIST and all CONSULT software updates are current.
2. Minimize Interference: Turn off all external Bluetooth® devices (e.g., cell phones, printers) within range of the CONSULT PC and the vehicle's interface (VI). Bluetooth signal interference can interrupt the reprogramming process.
3. Manage Electrical Loads: Turn on the hazard warning lamps. Crucially, turn off all other vehicle electrical loads, including exterior/interior lights, HVAC, audio, navigation, and seat/steering wheel heaters. Leaving electrical loads on can damage the ECM during reprogramming.
4. Maintain Battery Voltage: Connect a battery maintainer or smart charger, set to reflash mode, to ensure the battery voltage remains between 12.0 V and 15.5 V throughout the process.

After successfully reprogramming the ECM, several post-reprogramming steps are required:

1. Idle Air Volume Learning: Drive the vehicle for approximately 10 minutes to meet specific conditions for Idle Air Volume Learning. This includes achieving an engine coolant temperature between 70-100°C (158-212°F), maintaining a battery voltage greater than 12.9 V at idle, and ensuring the transmission is warmed up.
2. System Resets: Perform the Throttle Valve Closed Position, Idle Air Volume Learning, and Accelerator Closed Position procedures.
3. DTC Erase: Erase all Diagnostic Trouble Codes from the ECM.

Required Tools or Parts

Technicians will need the CONSULT-III plus diagnostic system and a suitable battery maintainer or smart charger capable of maintaining voltage between 12.0 V and 15.5 V during the reprogramming process.

Important Warnings

Nissan emphasizes several critical points for both technicians and vehicle owners:

• "Bulletins are intended for use by qualified technicians, not 'do-it-yourselfers'." This repair requires specialized training and equipment.
• "If you believe a described condition may apply to a particular vehicle, DO NOT assume that it does. See your Nissan dealer to determine if this applies to your vehicle."
• During the reprogramming process, "If electrical loads remain ON, the ECM may be damaged." This highlights the importance of proper procedure adherence.

Owner Action

If your 2021-2022 Nissan Rogue is displaying the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) and you suspect it might be related to the "Internal Control Module EEPROM Error" (DTC P062F-00), you should contact your authorized Nissan dealer. They have the necessary diagnostic tools and training to confirm the issue and perform the required ECM reprogramming.
