Problem overview

Some Nissan Murano owners report experiencing issues with their vehicle not starting after alternator and battery replacement, even when the fan runs. These problems may stem from battery issues, particularly if the battery was weak prior to replacement, resulting in insufficient power to start the car. Additionally, loose or corroded battery connections can prevent the newly replaced battery from receiving a charge from the alternator. Owners also note the importance of ensuring all alternator connections are secure, as any disconnection could lead to starting failures. Other potential electrical system faults, such as a malfunctioning alternator, broken starter, or blown fuses, may contribute to the starting issues. Furthermore, some owners have identified problems related to the battery current sensor, which can cause chronic undercharging and affect the vehicle's electrical load. If these issues persist, it is advisable for owners to consult a professional mechanic or a Nissan service center for further diagnosis and repair.
