1995 Nissan Maxima Logo
Posted on Sep 21, 2009

My 95 nissan maxima alarm went off when i tried to open the door. it wasn't locked and now it won't let me start my car. is there any way to fix this at home? i've tried opening the door and trunk with my key like it says to, but no change.

    i don't have a remote for it. we also tried disconnecting the regular car battery, but that didn't help either. i was hoping there was a tool i could buy or way to reset it at home. if not, i will have to pay for towing and labor as well.

Unplug the battery, the computer, and the alarm, then plug them back in in the following order: computer, alarm, battery. I found this worked for me. I got new keys made for my 99 maxima without knowing it had a chip in the original key. It basically locked me out. I couldn't start it or anything. After I "cycled power" on those three things it fired up immediately.

SOURCE: 95 maxima hard to start

Remove the high tension cable to the distributor from the ignition unit. Conduct a spark test. If there's no spark, try to replace the ignition coil or the igniter.

SOURCE: 1990 nissan maxima trunk release switch

Actually, this car has security system that prevent the trunk opened without using the master key. I often use this to lock my trunk. Just slid up the tiny lever upward to allow the trunk open from inside. the lever is on the back trunk (in the center, behind the Tail light) where the trunk door hook up with the lock system.
Cheers..

SOURCE: factory alarm wont stop

You can try to use another key if you have one, get one made. Also try to lock and unlock the doors, if this does not help you will need to bring vehicle to shop with high end scan tool so they can monitor what part of the security system is activating. Thanks

SOURCE: 1992 Nissan Maxima Alarm System goes off with key entry

Opening the trunk with the key (not the valet key) will shut off the alarm.

Can't offer help on permanently disabling the alarm.

'95 Nissan Maxima-Alarm goes off-then windows & doors won't work

Open the drivers door panel and locate the inside lock cylinder, there is an alarm switch that wrap around it with an electrical wire came out, it might also have another one on the passenger side in some other model . What it does is arm and disarm the alarm when you use the mechanical key and in some other model, it also lower the window when you disarm. The switch might pop out of place or deteriorated due to age. Good luck all.
