P1212 Nissan: Understanding and Troubleshooting the Infamous Code

Hello, everybody! This is JJ’s World. I recently encountered a problem with my 2005 Nissan Maxima where the ABS, traction control, and brake lights were all on. At first, I thought it was the ABS module, so I replaced it. However, that didn’t solve the issue. After some investigation, I found the actual cause of the problem.

As I popped the hood, I discovered a fuse box located under the hood close to the caboose. Upon opening the fuse box, I found the ABS fuse. After replacing the ABS fuse, the issue was resolved. The specific codes it was throwing were P1212 and U1001. Once the fuse was replaced, the problem was fixed, the codes were erased, and they have not returned since. Additionally, the speedometer is now functioning properly, and everything is back to normal.

So, if you’re experiencing a similar issue with a 2005 Nissan Maxima, or perhaps with an Altima, it’s worth checking this ABS fuse. It might just solve your problem as it did for me. Give it a try and let me know how it works for you!
