The spanner symbol indicates a service is due!

as for the car not starting......get the codes read from the OBD connection and check the fault codes, this will indicate where the issue is.

SOURCE: i have nissan micra K11 with light flasing code

From what I understand it is the Nissan Anti-theft System (NATS) correct ?
The other numbers you show do not correspond to any codes I can find.
The reason the car is not starting is because the Nissan keys MUST be programmed for that car.
Make sure you did not have a new key made and that if you did you have to program it.
Your owners manual will tell you how.
Please elt me know what you find.

Not an expert on non-us Nissans, but there should be a clutch switch to prevent you from cranking the engine in gear.
I would check the circuit with that switch.

What do you mean by "Kick" started? Get the Glow (heater) plugs checked as badly worn or very old ones can cause a no start issue.

Why justfitted new timeing chain.to 03 micra engine turns over there is fuel and spark at plug but wont kik up?

I suggest you double check the valve timing and then check the spark timing with a strobe to make sure the spark is happening roughly where it should.

When you are certain everything is as it should be per repair manual I suggest you ensure the spark plugs are clean and dry, withdraw the fuel pump fuse and then attempt to start with the throttle well opened.
Do not crank for more than ten seconds and then rest for ten seconds to avoid over-stressing the starter gear. If the car is similar to some I have some experience of the engine should soon show signs of life and could even start for a second or two and then die. It will be then time to refit the fuse and start the engine for real, not forgetting to open the throttle quite a bit.

If all else fails try a brief squirt from an ether spray. If the engine doesn't fire using ether there is something fundamentally wrong and it will be time to go back to basics and recheck everything.

Good Luck!

If you replaced the part, you just need the trouble code cleared. Only a matter of plugging in a scanner and erasing trouble code. Some vehicles reset if you leave the battery unhooked for 10 minutes, so I am not sure if that will work for you.
