Vehicle data

Nissan Pathfinder vehicle data API: signals, model years and connection options

Get API keys →

DIMO gives developers API access to Nissan Pathfinder vehicle data. Model years 2008 and newer connect with a DIMO device (DIMO LTE R1 or AutoPi). Headline signals include odometer, fuel percentage and vehicle speed.

DIMO gives developers API access to vehicle-state data: diagnostics, fault codes, battery and fuel health, odometer, and maintenance signals. For the Nissan Pathfinder, that data comes through a DIMO device, and model years 2008 and newer connect. Coverage for this vehicle has been tested, not just expected. DIMO adds vehicle-state depth on top of GPS tracking; it doesn't replace it.

No factory connectivity?

Nissan Pathfinder model years 2008 and newer have no OEM cloud connection listed. For these years, a DIMO device (DIMO LTE R1 or AutoPi) plugs into the OBD-II port and streams vehicle signals once the owner connects it and consents to sharing.

See the developer quickstart for how owners connect vehicles and grant access.

Events available

  • Idling
  • Refuel
  • Harsh braking
  • New diagnostic trouble code

Build it

Query the latest Nissan Pathfinder signals with the DIMO TypeScript SDK. The vehicle owner must first share access with your app through DIMO Connect.

import { DIMO } from '@dimo-network/data-sdk';
const dimo = new DIMO('Production');
const tokenId = Number(process.env.DIMO_TOKEN_ID); // from DIMO Connect
const developerJwt = await dimo.auth.getDeveloperJwt({
client_id: process.env.DIMO_CLIENT_ID,
domain: process.env.DIMO_REDIRECT_URI,
private_key: process.env.DIMO_API_KEY,
});
const vehicleJwt = await dimo.tokenexchange.getVehicleJwt({
...developerJwt,
tokenId,
});
// Latest Nissan Pathfinder signals
const data = await dimo.telemetry.query({
...vehicleJwt,
query: `
query {
signalsLatest(tokenId: ${tokenId}) {
powertrainTransmissionTravelledDistance {
value
timestamp
}
powertrainFuelSystemRelativeLevel {
value
timestamp
}
speed {
value
timestamp
}
}
}`,
});
console.log(JSON.stringify(data, null, 2));

FAQ

Can I read fuel level remotely on a Nissan Pathfinder?

Yes, through a DIMO device. Both listed devices report fuel percentage, and the DIMO LTE R1 also reports fuel level in liters. Query these signals with a Vehicle JWT in the GraphQL Telemetry API.

How do I track a Nissan Pathfinder with no connected services?

Use a DIMO device, listed for this vehicle as the DIMO LTE R1 or AutoPi. Once the owner shares the vehicle with your Developer License, exchange your Developer JWT for a Vehicle JWT through the Token Exchange API and query the Telemetry API.

Can I get check-engine light alerts for a Nissan Pathfinder?

Yes, with the DIMO LTE R1 device, which lists the dtc event. Use the Vehicle Triggers API (webhooks) to have DIMO push events to your endpoint instead of polling.

How do I detect idling on a Nissan Pathfinder?

Use a DIMO device, since both listed devices include the idling event. Query the segments resource in the Telemetry API with the idling detection mechanism, which finds contiguous periods where engine RPM stays in the idle range.

How do I verify Nissan Pathfinder mileage?

Use a DIMO device, since both listed devices report the odometer signal. Request an odometer statement from the Attestation API at /v2/attestation/odometer-statement/:tokenId, then retrieve the resulting credential through the Telemetry API.

Which Nissan Pathfinder model years work with DIMO?

DIMO devices have been seen working on Nissan Pathfinder model years 2008 and newer. For older vehicles, contact DIMO for additional support.

Do I need hardware to get Nissan Pathfinder data?

Yes. DIMO lists no OEM cloud connection for the Nissan Pathfinder, so data comes from a DIMO device.
