2011 Infinity QX56 will not start though all electrical components inside will light up? It does crank.I've replaced the battery and all is well for a couple of months then back to the same issue.

Have already taken it to the dealership, they could not find the issue. I had them run a draw test and nothing came back negative.

SOURCE: 95 F150 wont crank

the starter should be replaced. The solenoid is kikcing the pinion out but there is no contact being made to turn the starter motor. I have the exact same truck and before i changed the starter used the old starter tap trick. Tap the starter casing with a hammer and it should start turning again. hope this was helpful for you. Good luck.

SOURCE: 2000 Nissan XTerra Electrical Probs

I was told by a loca mechanic that Nissa has had problems with electrical grounding for some time. Ii had a 1997 Altima that I intened to drive forever but finally gave up at (only) 90,000 miles. It went through 4 alternators in three years. Also a corroded radiator. The mechanic said Nissan has used the engine block as a ground, since cards today don't have the old-fashioned frame rails. Any loosening or other disturbance to that engine block ground will cause electriclaly-charged coolant to flow throughout the system: definition of elctrolysis. I don't if this applies to 2000-and-beyond vehicles, but it did in the 90s. Elsewhere in this section someone posted a ground solution (Maxima) that looks good. These are great vehicles, but if you have one (any make) with a persistent electrical glitch it can be one of the most frustrating and costly problems to fix.

My Volkswagen Jetta won't start after disconnecting and re connecting the battery

The first link says you can disconnect the battery cables and touch the Pos and Neg leads together to discharge any stored charge in the system. I don't think that is good, it works on some cars and other cars it can short out electrical components. I think it is better to disconnect the battery and turn the key on and let it sit for more than 1 hour to reset the immobilizer. Just my thought.

2011 Infinity qx56 wont start...replaced ecm will crank but wont start and security light stays on while its cranking...does the key fob need to be reprogrammed? Can I do it without towing it to a dealer?

As part of the security system is embedded in the engine management ECU (ECM) the ECU has to recognise the code sent from the immobiliser before it will switch on and perform its functions.

Sometimes when ordering a replacement ECU using the vin from the dealer it will arrive programmed with the correct code but this is unlikely with aftermarket replacements and consequently reprogramming of the system will be required.

2009 Infinity QX56 AIRBAG LIGHT BLINKING continuously what could be the problem

Issue is more than likely a faulty impact sensor or airbag module. Use an OBD scan tool to find out which one is bad. Could be something else though, OBD tool will tell you. It is a known issue with these models.

QX56 WONT START

there is two "boxes" right behind the battery on the pass. side fender well. take a small hammer or rubber mallot and "tap" the box farthest into the cowling. try starting the vehicle immediatly after. (be gentle as to not break the plastic box, but don't be affraid to give it a smack) lightly tap the CAN mounted directly on the fender behind these plastic boxes as well, if it starts replace CAN communication area network its a fancy name for another computer

2007 infiniti qx56

It sounds as if you are having a battery problem. You need to have the battery checked at an Infinity Dealer. The battery should have warranty on it (pro rated) with such a new vehicle. Hope this helps.
