Car doesn't start!!
 
Hello, I am having another problem with my Maxima, The car doesn't start, no crank at all, this past week, the car had some trouble starting very heavy crank , took several tries in order to get the car to start, now! it doesnt start at all, i dont hear any crank nada capout !!!! I started off by changing by myself the igniters, I then tried to start the car, same problem! No crank nothing !!! what is the problem, is it the starter ? because battery is brand new so we can rule that out directly !

have someone checked your battery if it has electricity. I think your alternator has gone so the battery drained out.

I am not having problem with the battery, its brand new! :( all power in the car is perfect! , its not turning on, no ignition!

I know it's new, but it doesn't mean that it has power.
have someone given you a jump start then you will know if your battery is empty or not.
if the jump start can start your car, it means your battery is empty, check your alternator.
otherwise, check your starter.

we tried jump starting! nothing at all i had the battery for 4 months now!, I will have myfriend check the alternator, otherwise you think its the starter ? Because this week the car has been giving me signs! had to crank for a long while in order to have the engine started! If its the starter, I can change it myself, if its the alternator which i hope its not, i had it changed 2 years ago by the way!

if a jump start won't start the car, check the starter and it's wires and fuses.

Had the exact same problem recently...car started slowly for a few days then wouldn't start at all. Check your battery terminal connections, but it's most likely a dead starter.
