Control of the parking, license plate, and tail lamp operation is dependent upon the position of the lighting switch (combination switch). When the lighting switch is placed in the 1ST position, the BCM (body control module) receives input signal requesting the parking, license plate, side marker and tail lamps to illuminate. This input signal is communicated to the IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room) across the CAN communication lines. The CPU (central processing unit) of the IPDM E/R controls the tail lamp relay coil. This relay, when energized, directs power to the parking, license plate, rear side marker and tail lamps, which then illuminate. Testing starts at 134

Check the transmission fluid for level and condition topup or change then try driving forward or back if that sorts it get a quote for service or repair sometimes the replacement transmission option works out cheaper

Check the blower motor connector for signs of overheating. It will be discolored

You'll need to get a lock smith ect to program it for you

Sounds like you need oil in your transmission, low pressure light for hydraulics. Get it checked right away or it could seize up. Make sure all your fluids are checked both for levels and leaks. Your brakes may need looking at too.

located under the hood in fuse box. its a big green fusible link which houses 3 fuses together in one big block.if you remove it, your speedo will not work.

your maxima has 2 a/f ratio sensors. they are both screwed into the exhaust manifolds. bank 2 which is the front bank by radiator has sensor clearly visible right by the fans. bank 1 is a pain in the rear to replace, because of its location by the firewall. you will need to perform "self learn reset" procedure after replacing the a/f ratio sensor, or the code will come back on, even tho you don't have an issue with the sensor. reset procedure gets done with nissans consult scanner.

COULD BE AIR IN SIDE?

On most newer cars, the bulbs come out from the inside of the car. You will have to open the hood and look at the lights from this way. Your bulbs should be "twisted" in and you should have no problems taken them out. Just turn them to the left or right (depending on the car) and take them out.

Could be a bad fuse, bad switch, or bad connection.

Sounds like there's a problem in the charging system. It could be as simple as a loose fanbelt, or as major as a bad alternator. I have a very similar car, 2004 Infiniti I35, same engine/alternator, and my alternator went bad in November. Replacement is a pain, the book calls for removal of the AC compressor, though my mechanic pulled the radiator instead.
