You can activate the alarm by opening the door window, close the door, set the alarm and then reach in an open the door. The alarm will register that as an intrusion and activate the alarm.
Nissan P1614 is not quite so easy.
The P1614 fault code is set because there's a problem with the Nissan Anti-Theft System. Typically this code is triggered because a damaged or unregistered key FOB was used in an attempt to start the engine. It signifies that the IMMU (immobilizer control unit) cannot read the key ID signal. In other instances, it means something more severe is wrong with the immobilizer or ECM itself. Check the fuse; if that's OK, then try a new battery in the FOB. If the FOB is defective, you'll have to buy a new one and get it registered by a locksmith or a Nissan dealer.
Yeah whenever the hoods popped her a jar open there's a safety switch that won't let it start in case you're under the hood or working on it the front and you have the key in your pocket and you accidentally trigger the start mode I recently found out my wouldn't start and it was just simply just popped a little bit and just need to close it all the way
It is possible that the car's alarm/immobilizer system is preventing the vehicle from starting. Manufacturers, in an effort to prevent car theft, have the immobilizer activate if the battery circuit is interrupted for more than a certain number of minutes. This keeps car thieves from cutting battery cables to prevent alarm activation. If the battery goes flat-line dead, the same thing can occur. You need a special tool available at a dealer or repair facility to reset the immobilizer.
Simple thing to do is have your coils checked.. You should have spark if they are good.. If you still dont then disconnect battery at least 20 - 25 mins see if it resets ecm and alarm. May begin to work properly again..
Sounds like you've got an issue with your alarm module, causing the immobilizer to activate (also known as a "start inhibitor"). I'm not sure what type of alarm you've got, but this will probably help you find out if there is something wrong with it:
There is a panel with relays on it behind the dash. At the bottom of the steering column, by the drivers feet, there is a panel. Remove it to get access to the relay panel (just a couple of torx screws, no breakable clips as far as I can remember). Remove the "double size" relay (probably marked 210-211). Put a wire between the terminals 50E and 50F. This will hotwire the immobilizer and make sure that it always activates when turning the key.
Drive around with the wire in place instead of the relay for a while to see if this helps. If it does you'll know that the problem is related to the alarm system. Keep in mind that you will be without alarm and therefore probably also without remote central locking while doing this.
Make sure that the wire is connected firmly enough so it doesn't come loose. You can also put a fuse on it if it makes you sleep better at night ;)
