2012 Nissan altima will not start. New battery, new starter and new [brake](/topics-brake-nissan/) sensor. The steering lock mechanism has already been immobilized. When I press the start button it make a.click and the dashboard goes completely out Mechanic's Assistant: Which particular sensor are you asking about? And have any trouble codes been triggered? I am not asking about any sensor Mechanic's Assistant: Are you fixing your Altima yourself? What have you tried so far? Yes. I just said everything I have replaced

Answer 1

Sorry about your car problems, have you double checked your battery terminals and grounds?

Answer 2

Any trouble codes, have you scanned it?

Answer 3

Ok, when the dash lights go out when you push start does everything else go dead as well, like interior lights headlights etc..?

Answer 4

OkYou said you replaced brake light switch, did you replace sub harness as well?

Answer 5

Yeah sometimes the aftermarket switches won't work you have to replace with oem switch with that harness....one thing to try if you haven't already would be to take off both battery terminals and hold them together for at least 60 seconds and then reinstall and see if it changes anything

Answer 6

See if brake lights work when depressing brake pedal...back probe and check for constant battery voltage on the red wire to the brake light switch battery voltage supply comes from 10 amp fuse #7 under hood fuse box..back probe and check for good battery voltage on the light green wire out of the brake switch when brake is depressedbrake lights should come on with key up if your getting power

Answer 7

Ok keep me posted

Answer 8

Ok...does your key fob work for anything?Like door locks

Answer 9

Ok, what was your original problem to start with, as in like it wouldn't start one day or what?

Answer 10

I understand, I would double check wiring around the belt area as well, look for any rub marks by any wires close to the belt areaCheck by power steering pump area

Answer 11

Check bulkhead connector

Answer 12

I know you checked grounds but double double check the ground that goes off the battery to engine ground they have a known issue to loose connection there on them

Answer 13

OkIf you push button (key up) and depress brake will it allow you to shift to neutral?I would check for power and verify the wires I told you earlier on the brake switch so you can eliminate that firstIf you can get it into neutral try and see if it turns over as well
