Hello
The 1st thing you should do here is clean and lubricate all the parts, this includes the door edge rubber seals and the lock and latch assembly, this easies the amount of force needed to latch the door and many time cures the problem. To lube the rubber hatch seals get a can of Silicone spray from any auto parts store or hardware store, using a rag soaked with the silicone (shake it before use) clean and generously lubricate the rubber seals around the edge of the hatch. To lube the latch itself get a scan of spray Lithium grease, it is a white grease designed for lubricating these types of mechanisms, if the latch is full of dirt and grim clean it first with a product called Brake Clean, it dries very fast and will remove the old grease and dirt, after it is clean re-apply the spray Lithium grease to the latch mechanism. CAUTION! Do not get these products on the paint or plastic trim of the interior, it can discolor it, tile trim with masking tape or a rag while you apply it..

A code P0430 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:

• The catalytic converter is no longer functioning properly
• An oxygen sensor is not reading (functioning) properly
• There is an exhaust leak

If the Ox sensor has never been replaced I would do that.. Its a lot cheaper than the CAT. The one that needs to be replaced is AFTER the Catalytic Converter.

A good shop should be able to tell if this is your issue or not though.

TPMS-Tire pressure monitor sensor. low tire or bad sensor. if your tires are more than 3-5 pounds under pressure, this will trigger the light. Check your driver door for proper tire pressure, air the tires up and drive for 15 mins. If light doesnt go out, check the owners manual for reset procedure.

The answer for fuse should be printed in raised letters on inside of fuse box lid, and in you cars manual.

By this statement I assume you mean your phone is connecting to your car audio system via Bluetooth. If this was a one time event I would say that it could be your network. Again, I assume that this is not just a single occurrence. Try connecting a friends phone to see if the problem persists. If not then it is likely your phone and you can try to get a replacement from your carrier. If you still have the problem with a second phone it is likely the audio system. Check your warranty and seek maintenance from the manufacture.

Wiggle the steering wheel while trying to turn the key.Try shaking the steering wheel while using the manual key. The steering wheel ultimately unlocks and the car started.Try hitting the steer wheel hard,with a rubber mallet on its center.Take care nothing gets cracked. ----------- INFINItI Intelligent Key tM This system allows you to lock and unlock your vehicle, open the power lift gate, and start and stop the engine without having to remove the Intelligent Key from your pocket or bag. Two Intelligent Keys are provided with your INFINITI vehicle. Ignition Switch To Start the Engine: With the Intelligent Key on "your person" or within the vehicle: 1 Apply the parking brake. 2 Move the shift selector to P (PARK) or N (NEUTRAL). P (Park is recommended). 3 Push in the ignition switch and crank the engine with your foot off the accelerator pedal by turning the ignition switch to the START position. Release the ignition switch when the engine has started. To Stop the Engine: 1 Put the transmission in P (PARK). 2 Turn it to the LOCK (OFF) position. The ignition lock is designed so that the ignition switch cannot be turned to LOCK (OFF) unless the transmission is in P (PARK). --------------- Also its possible that key fob needs reprogramming or your present key is not getting detected.if you have any other key,then try with that spare key.

Battery is weak/dead or bad battery connections. Turn headlights on and turn key. If lights go out or go very dim, that is your problem.

A P0335 "check engine light" code could be caused by:

• Damaged CKP sensor connector
• Damaged reluctor ring (missing teeth or not turning due to sheared-off keyway)
• Sensor output open
• Sensor output shorted to ground
• Sensor output shorted to voltage
• Failed crank sensor
• Broken timing belt
• Failed PCM

1. Using a scan tool, check if, when engine is running or cranking, that there is an RPM signal.
2. If there is no RPM reading, then visually inspect the crank sensor and connector for any damage and repair as necessary. If there is no visible damage, and you have access to a scope, you could check the CKP 5 Volt square wave pattern. If you do not, then, obtain a resistance reading of your crank sensor from a repair manual. (There are so many different types of crank sensors that there's no way to put here which resistance reading is correct). Then check the resistance of the CKP sensor by disconnecting the sensor and measuring resistance of the sensor. (It is best to check resistance readings from the PCM connector. This rules out any wiring problems from the start. But it does require some mechanical skill and shouldn't be performed if you\'re not familiar with automobile electrical systems). Is the sensor within resistance specs?
3. If not, replace the CKP sensor. If so, recheck resistance reading from the PCM connector. Is the reading still okay?
4. If not, repair open or short in the wiring to the crank sensor and re-check. If the reading is okay, the problem is intermittent or the PCM may be at fault. Try reconnecting and checking for RPM signal again. If there is now an RPM signal, wiggle test the wiring harness to try and induce the fault.

please check this maybe

The waring sign ( ! ) is your Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Indicator. This means that the computer has detected a difference in tire pressure between your tires of more than 10psi. Look in the owners manual for more information or take it to the dealer. Most cars with TPMS systems require a special tool to reset the light, but you may be able to reset the system by adjusting the tire pressure in all tires including the spare, and driving at more the 15mph for 30 minutes.

I had the same problem on my 04. Found a used unit on Ebay for $150 and just pulled ou the old one, put in the new one. Appears to work. Do not ahve the manual and am not able to enter in other states (appears to only have addresses for CA?)

that is a brake warning light. check your brake fluid and make sure it is not low. If it is low you may have a leak somewhere. Look for a puddle under the vehicle. It may also mean time to change brake pads.

If the ! is inside of what looks like a tire it is a low tire pressure warning. Your description could go either way so I wanted to give you both answers

sounds like a wiring problem unless you are a mechanic take it to a dealer

Did you check for DTC'S ? diagnostic trouble codes .Hook up a scan tool an check live input data to the control module for cruise control? Factory Service Manuals - NICOclub

What colour is the smoke? The easiest way to check this is on first start when the engine is cold. This can give clues as to where the problem could be. is the vehicle doing anything else different? A blue exhaust smoke is commonly oil getting into the cylinders. White smoke suggests coolant getting into the cylinders. Black smoke is the engine running too rich. Blue or white smoke can often mean a blown head gasket. On a 2001 engine that could the most likely reason.
