C1708 on Nissan by model: symptoms, diagnosis and fix
Nissan bulletin NTB13-088 covers TPMS radio-frequency interference causing C1708/C1709/C1710/C1711 “No Data,” along with sensor leaks, registration, wheel-service damage and environmental pressure effects. GT-R-specific records also require verifying whether the sensor transmits before replacement; on certain 2018 cars, a transmitting sensor with recurring codes can lead to HVAC-blower diagnosis. A sensor should not be replaced based on one code alone.
Common Symptoms
- TPMS 'No Data' fault codes (C1708-C1711)
- Air leaking at a TPMS sensor or valve
- TPMS faults after tire or wheel service
- Recurring TPMS codes even though the sensor transmits
How to Fix
Confirm cold tire pressures, read the exact wheel-position DTC and use the approved activation/diagnostic tool to verify transmission. Remove or relocate nearby aftermarket electronics when RF interference is suspected, and inspect for sensor or valve leakage and tire-service damage. Establish the transmission result, code path, wheel equipment and VIN fitment before buying a sensor, valve kit, activation tool or HVAC blower.

Frequently asked questions
What does C1708 mean on a Nissan?
C1708 stands for "Data From Front Left Transmitter Cannot Be Received." A Nissan and Infiniti chassis code meaning the TPMS receiver/body control module is getting no data from the front left tire pressure sensor. It is one of a set of four "no data" codes covering the individual wheels (C1708 through C1711). The TPMS warning light will be on or flashing, and pressure for that wheel typically reads blank on the display. Because Nissan TPMS sensors transmit around 315 MHz, radio-frequency interference from cheap aftermarket 12V accessories is a well-documented cause of this code in addition to an outright sensor failure. Confirm against Nissan service information for your specific model year. On Nissan it is documented across 1 model: GT-R.
What are the most common causes of C1708?
The most common causes of C1708 are: Dead battery inside the front left TPMS sensor (most common; sensors typically last roughly 7-10 years), RF interference from aftermarket electronics - cheap USB phone chargers, wireless charging docks, dash cams, radar detectors, Sensor damaged during tire mounting, or broken valve stem, Sensor not registered/relearned after tire rotation or sensor replacement, Faulty TPMS receiver or body control module, Aftermarket wheels with non-compatible or missing sensors. The specific cause varies by vehicle.
How much does it cost to fix C1708 on a Nissan?
Repair costs vary widely with the root cause and Nissan model; each issue on this page carries its own estimate where one is published.
