After crushing head-on, my Nissan almera 2005 just switched off. The headlamps and water tank for wipers broke. But when I try to turn the key on, the dash body does not light and the positive terminal of battery is hot, what could be the problem or reason

You have a dead short in the wiring harness some were and are in real danger of a fire starting. I would recommend you disconnect the negative battery cable until the short is located and repaired.

Yes, you have a short somewhere from the positive side to the frame. A very thourough inspection of the positive side cables will probably reveal a cut by the "crushed" body through the insulation on the Positive side of wiring. I had a similar problem. Light front end and driver side fender. Found problem at or near wire going through driver side firewall.

SOURCE: won't start after cleaning battery terminals

Sounds like you have an aftermarket alarm with starter disable. By disconnecting the battery the alarm reset and the defualt setting is usually to set the alarm automatically (active arming). You have three options..
A. If you have the key fob that went with the alarm you can disarm the alarm.
B. If no key fob is available you can disconnect the battery again, turn the ignition key to the on position and reconnect the battery. This usually doesn't allow the alarm to set and allows the car to start.
C. Remove the aftermarket alarm system. This is usually the long term fix i recommend if the fob isn't available. Option B should get you going though.

SOURCE: issue with dash lights dimming while driving,

If the battery and alternator tested fine. I would have the charging system rechecked when engine is hot and at high rpm's. This way the checks are being done as if you were driving and driving for a long time. Alternators can work fine when cold but weaken when hot or stop working. This problem is not rare but only is seen occassionly. Unless it was checked at an electrical shop the average shop doesn't run these tests for they don't see the problem often enough to automaticly run them at all times. Good luck and let me know how you make out.

Nissan almera 2005 1.6 water runs out quick in the radiator but still full in the water tank,i took out the thermostat problem not solved and no leakeage from radiator and water pump?

Water from the storage tank to the radiator is moved by suction produced in the radiator as it cools off. When the water gets hot it expands and pushes water into the storage tank. When it cools the water goes back into the radiator. If there is a leak in the system, then there will be no vacuum made so the radiator will not refill. To find a coolant leak sometimes you must put pressure on the system.. Also at times the water pump may leak and then stop.

My nissan almera tino ignition key comes out with the engine running and every thing works like the key is in??

The tumbler is probably worn. The best best is to leave as is or to visit your local automotive parts store to get a new one

My Nissan Almera keeps cutting out completely whilst driving?

run the fault codes and look for cam/crank position sensors.
faulty or loose connections may cause this fault. If you have more than 1 key in the ignition then it has been known that the mass of swinging keys will switch off the ignition
(current recall on all GMC ignition switches for just this reason)

Resetting after installing a radiator on nissan almera

Not sure on the Almera, but some vehicles need the light to be re-set with a scanner, it has stored the radiator fault in it's memory, trip to a garage I'm afraid.

The park switch in the wiper motor is faulty, an auto electrician may be able to fix it, but possibly you may have to replace the wiper motor
