P155B-00 – Electric Intake Valve Control Actuator Circuit Range/Performance (Bank 1)

This code indicates that the Engine Control Module (ECM) has detected a performance issue or an out-of-range condition in the electric intake valve control actuator circuit for Bank 1. Unlike traditional oil-pressure-driven VVT, some Nissan models use an electric motor-driven actuator for continuous valve lift/timing control (e.g., on MR20DD, QR25DE, or VQ series with electric VVT). nissan p155b-00


Based on the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) format, P155B-00 is a manufacturer-specific code used by Nissan and Infiniti vehicles.

Here is a detailed breakdown of the code, its meaning, causes, and diagnosis.

For 90% of cases, the fix is replacing the coolant bypass valve assembly. Here’s how to do it:

Compare actual coolant temperature with the valve’s commanded position. If the engine is at 200°F and the valve shows 0% open, replace it. Overview

⚠️ Important: Do not attempt to repair the IPM internally — the hybrid inverter contains high-voltage (up to 650V DC) and can cause serious injury or death. Always de-energize the high-voltage system before any work.

To give you a more specific answer:
What is the exact year, model, engine, and transmission of your Nissan?
Also, is this a hybrid or conventional gas vehicle? That changes the diagnosis significantly.

If you own a modern Nissan vehicle—especially models like the Rogue, Altima, Sentra, or Pathfinder—and your check engine light has just illuminated, you might be staring at a code that reads P155B-00 after a scan. Unlike common oxygen sensor or misfire codes, this one often leaves drivers and even some novice mechanics scratching their heads.

So, what exactly is Nissan P155B-00? Is it serious? Can you still drive your car? And most importantly, how much will it cost to fix? Key Features
