My 93 Altima will not start. I did the self diagnostic and got code 55?? It started a few weeks ago ran great for the weekend, got it to work and would not crank to go home.
Josh, Code 55 for your Altima simply means no faults were found/no malfunction. Do you mean car would not crank(engine not turning over) or did you mean engine will crank, but not start. I will post troubleshooting links to both conditions below. If not comfortable, have a good Technician look at it, diagnose and estimate repair.

Truck cranks over but won't start
fuel pump sounds to me like have a friend sit in the cab and turn the key on , just on not crank, you open the gas tank door and listen you should hear the pump kick on for a couple seconds if you dont hear it you need a new one

I have a 93 altima that will crank but will not start...about a couple months ago i went to my work and shut off my car. it was running fine when i shut it off.. when i came back out and started my car...
this year model is notorious for fuel related probs...check the remainder of the fuel system, injectors, and the fuel pressure regulator also verify that the fuel pump is actually running and getting the correct amount of power to the pump itself..... it may not be bad just not getting enough power

1993 Nissan Altima will crank but won't start - sometimes - altitude issues?
The system is not affected by altitude in this way, the thing you need to check is fuel pressure, this may be pump related.
