I had the same indications on My 2000 Maxima but the engine was also running rough . I replaced the number 3 cylinder ignition module and all of the spark plugs and all of the error lights are back to normal I had to reset the check engine light by disconnecting the battery for about 15 minutes.By the way my car has 253,000 miles on it so if you have a lot of miles on your car you might want to check all of the ignition modules so pull your spark plugs and read them they might tell you where your problem is .

Hi Wild Bear
No 1....... Check your wheel nuts ! !!!!!!
If OK.....
Is the problem worse on full lock, one way ?
If so, it sounds like the drive shaft CV joint is shot.
If no....
Jack up the front, support car on axle stands.
Spin your front wheels, check the treads, and I should think, you will be able to tell the problem wheel.
Expect it might be in the brake caliper area, something loose and fouling the wheel or rim ?
Check for play too, in your front wheel bearings, by gripping the tyre, top and bottom and pulling, there should be no movement.
Give these things a try, and get back to me.
Good Luck !
A FixYa rating would be nice thank´s

The light comes on when the car's computer detects that something has an incorrect reading that is sending that incorrect reading from the sensing unit to the computer.
Here's how i would attempt to solve it. To reset an service engine soon light take the positive terminal off of the battery and let it drain all the voltage and currents in your vehicle. Like try turning on your radio and turning your car over while the positive terminal is taken off of the battery terminal.
I would say let it sit for atleast 15 minutes then put it back on and start the car back up. If the light still comes back one then you have a small problem that could be many different little things
Check to see that your gas cap isn't worn out and still keeping a seal so when you take it off you should hear air escaping from it
Could be a filter in your fuel tank.
Could be o2 sensors
The list could go on, but to make sure before you start spending a huge amounts of money go to a shop and get them to plug in a scanner into your car to see what exactly the code is.
Good luck bud!
