★ Top Answer
There is no specific limp mode reset procedure for the 2005 Nissan Altima. To resolve the issue, you must address the underlying transmission problem that caused the vehicle to enter limp mode initially. Once the problem has been fixed, you can turn off the ignition for one minute or more. If everything is in order when you restart the vehicle, the Altima will automatically exit limp mode. It is essential to understand that limp mode is not arbitrary; it is designed to prevent severe damage to the transmission. If you are encountering this issue, it is crucial to promptly identify and fix the problem to avoid potential catastrophic transmission failure. Instead of seeking ways to reset, focus on finding solutions for repair.

To reset the limp mode in a 2005 Nissan Altima, first, turn on the ignition for 3 seconds. Next, press the accelerator firmly 5 times. Pause for 7 seconds after the fifth press, then press and hold the accelerator for 10 seconds. Release for 10 seconds, and repeat the pressing and releasing sequence about a dozen times. Once completed, the vehicle should be no longer in limp mode.

Is there anyone who can help me figure out what to look for after my nephew drove my 2004 Altima too fast over a tall speed bump, causing it to go into limp mode? I plan to prop the car up on tree trunks in my makeshift garage so I can check underneath for any crushed wires or lines. I can't afford to take it to a professional mechanic, so I'm relying on myself to fix it. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
