Need help to find ignition coil fuse or relay

Hello everyone, i have a nissan máxima qx,model year 2000, and the car has been stopped long time algo.
i want to spin the engine a few times with the starting motor, before starting the car definitely so the oil can go where It needs before the engine start running
I know the two fuses of inyectors and fuel pump, but i cant find any fuse or relay Who send power to the six ignition coils.
I dont know if this car has a fuse or a relay to check that but i think so
Can you help me please to find the fuse le the relay??

Just remove the fuel pump fuse.

The spark plugs can continue to fire.

it won't matter, because there will be no fuel inside the engine.

To download the 2000 Maxima QX service manual:
1) click on this link - www.nicoclub.com/nissan-service-manuals
2) scroll down and click on Maxima
3) click on 2000

What you will see is a list of the different sections. There are 21 or 22 files that make up the manual. Click on one of the section names and it will be displayed to you. You can now download the section to your computer as a PDF file. You will have to repeat this process for all sections. You will need 59MB of space on the hard drive.

The alphabetical index file (idx.pdf) is for the whole manual, but each section has an index for that one section. The a33_manual.pdf file is the owners manual that describes the features of the car and how to operate them.

If you want to remove the power to the ignition coils you can remove fuse # 58 (section EC.PDF, Engine Control, page 371). Fuse # 58 is under the hood by the battery (section FOLDOUT, page 4).

Helpful parts of the manual:
The General Information section, GI.PDF, explains how to understand the drawings in the manual.

At the beginning of the Electrical section (EL.PDF) there is a information on how the electrical system is wired. For example, on page 9 is a chart of all the fuses and what component uses that fuse. Page 10 starts a more detailed breakdown. Following the fuse section is t the ground section, showing where all the ground wires are and what components use that ground wire. The first 35 pages of the Electrical sectional will be very important to you if you are troubleshooting electrical problems.

Towards the end of the Electrical section (EL.PDF) there is a chapter titled ELECTRICAL UNITS LOCATION (page 396) that shows where the relays, control modules and what ever are located. Following that is information about the wire harnesses that shows where the connectors are.
