If you have good voltage in the battery and a clicking sound ... either the start solenoid is faulty or the starter is faulty. You can check the start solenoid with a voltage meter. Place the probes one to the starter side of the solenoid the other to ground. Have someone turn the key. The battery side of the solenoid will always have 12 volts on it. The battery side should only have 12 volts when the solenoid is activated (you turned the key). If you get 12 volts on the start side, suspect the starter.

2008 nissan rogue wont start. Had battery checked and recharged. Will start after jump. What is problem

Are you sure the battery is good and properly connected to cables? Low voltage connections are very prone to poor connections where the electricity does not have enough pressure to "jump" over obstacles.

Make sure that all battery connections are squeaky clean and tight.

2008 sl awd Nissan Rogue, won't start Battery seems to have power making a clicking sound may be starter, having hard time finding starter location.

Know this problem was posted several years ago, but having same issue with my 2008 Nissan Rogue. We've tried everything short of having the battery replaced, (including charging it), and nada. So, tomorrow morning, that'll be our next move. Sucks, but best thing to die. Much rather than than an alternator, starter or solenoid.

"2008 nissan rogue problem shifting

It is the battery. It is bad and shorting out. Check the manual for directions to trouble shoot until you replace it. There is a small button that you need to remove next to the shifter, place the key in the hole and hold for about 10 seconds. It is a shift release.

I had the same problem. Fixed!

I have a 2008 Nissan Rogue with the Intelligent Key keyless ignigition and entry system. Both of my keys appear to have dead batteries but I can't figure out how to open them to change the batttery

I also have a 2008 Nissan Rogue, and my intelligent keys quit working too. However, I do not believe it's the batteries, as one of my keys has never been used. I checked the fuses, but they are fine.
