Infiniti I30t: Dash Lights Flickering / Car Won't Start?
Infiniti I30t: Dash Lights Flickering / Car Won't Start?
Hi everyone. I have a 2000 Infiniti I30t. It's been a great running car, but last night something weird happened. As I was driving up to my house I noticed a light flickering on the dash that I'd never seen before (little guy with a big circle in his lap, which I assume is the air bag indicator). As I pulled into my driveway and put the car in Park all the lights on my dash started flickering (ABS, airbag, oil, etc.).
I shut the car off and then tried starting it again, but it would not start. All the lights would flash and when I turned the key I would get a small clicking sound and then nothing. I recently installed a brand new starter and battery, but I got under the hood and checked the battery terminals anyway. I had cleaned the terminals when I put the new battery in and they were still clean and the connections snug.
I called my local parts store and the guy said it sounds like a ground is loose or bad somewhere. I have no experience with this sort of thing so I thought I would post about it here and see if I can get any advice and/or suggestions.
Thanks.
