I have a 1995 GLE Maxima. Sometimes I turn the key all the way and it will not start. So I sit for a little while and then maybe it will turn on. This is not because I need a jump, and I try turning the wheel and tilting it etc.. and it doesn't work... Any suggestions?

Starters commonly fail on the 95 and 96 cars. You'll probably need a new starter be fore too long.

By the way, there's no such thing as a Maxima GLS. You probably have a GLE.

Does the car crank when you turn the key. I had my starter fail and usually thats the problem. How about your interior lights? If they are on, then most likely it is not the battery or the alternator

Last week I changed my starter. Get in ur car and leave your door open so u can hear this. Turn the key to the "Start". If u hear the solenoid on the starter make a "click" but it doesn't crank, ur starter is seized, go get one.

One the other hand, if u turn the key to "Start" and u hear no clicks from the solenoid and no crankin either, there might not be any power or enough power getting to the starter. Check that ur battery is good and that ur cables are in good condition (and correctly connected), and check all the ignition-related fuses and relays.

Also, my factory starter was already giving me signs that it was close to it's "death". I'd move the key to "start" and take it back but my starter would drag for about 1/2 a sec (it was starting to seize). Then afterwards it it wouldn't crank at all. I'd have to turn the key like 3x for it to crank, until last week that it totally seized.

During my inspection I found that my battery terminals are more rust than metal, and my cables look like they've been put in a 500 degree oven. SO I'm changin that stuff by the end of the week.
