Problems with maxima starting
Need some Nissan advice.
I have a 2002 Nissan Maxima 3.5ltr. 90,000 miles. I have never had any trouble getting the car to start. My buddy yesterday backed into my car and busted the foglight and minor scratches. NOTHING BIG.
I get in my car later that evening and try to start it. The engine turns over and over but never fire's. As I turn ignition switch to the start position, I do notice that the security light illuminates and does not go off.
We have tried kiling the power to the car for several minutes, but no change. Is it possible where he hit it. It may have an inertia switch or maybe locked security due to the jar to the car? Anyone who may have any experience in this area please help.

Take it to Tech Talk, I doubt anyone here will be able to diagnose your issue. Take the car to a dealer or mechanic you trust and if you're gonna get buttrammed then file a claim, not a cool thing to have to do to a buddy, but neither is hitting your car.

well google says there is no fuel switch...so maybe not...
if they security light flashes...try using the key in the pass door or trunk and turn both ways...
then see if it starts

Getting buttrammed doesnt knock the fog light out............ and no worries paying for it isnt an issue...Hes just trying to see if we can get it started first. I have every intention of funding his car being fixed wether we fix it or we have to tow it or whatever.........Just Saying...
