Nissan symbols page
Nissan symbols pageThe Nissan symbols page is now the second to be aligned by color. We started what is big change on the site with Infiniti, and thought it would be most appropriate to finish the “family”.
The Nissan page features over 90 entries, about 20 more the Infiniti page. This added a degree of difficulty in the change, but we see paths to simplifying a difficult transition.
Returning to the idea that Nissan uses more indicators than its higher end brand, it is certainly not what we expect. High end brands in general feature more advanced technology, resulting in additional symbols. We anticipate the brand will catch its sibling when the new line line of electric vehicles is introduced in the coming years, as we discussed here.

interior air bags. The symbol warns that the system is not available, either due to a malfunction or because it has already been used. The light appears as the front of a vehicle with the hood separated or broken from the windshield.

the battery in the key fob dies. Which they do all tooo quickly and at what is likely the worst possible time.
Then in 2018, the QX30 was introduced using a pull-out button akin to a version developed by the old Chrysler Corporation. The button can be removed and the key fob inserted into the space and used as a key.
Getting to the key hole is a process also similar to other models with flush door handles. Press the front of the door handle inward. This rotates the rear of the handle outward (right). The handle can then be pulled open.

So lets set some parameters. Our first thought is to look for Troubleshooting chapter. So, result #1 is that not a single one of these 25 manufacturers have a chapter with this title. Only 3, Mazda (right), Toyota and Lexus, even use the word Trouble. Emergency, Roadside or Breakdown are most likely to be found, and this is a pretty short hurdle. VW raises the hurdle, with a Do It Yourself chapter that includes flat tires and dead batteries, etc. that tend to be found in the Breakdown chapters from other manufacturers.
So, back to the our troubleshooting-like chapters. Once inside, only Honda/Acura, Toyota/Lexus and Subaru got this right! Setting aside for a moment the fact that the owner’s manual is most likely inside the car and the driver locked outside, at least if the driver manages to get the car open, he or she will be able to get started.
Subaru (right), Lexus and Toyota chapters point directly to pages with solutions to issues with the electronic keys. Again, it may not be obvious to the driver that the key fob is the problem, but these manufacturers come the closest to nailing the problem. Titling the sections using something like what to do if the car does not respond to the electronic key would come closest to replicating exactly what the driver is experiencing.
Infiniti symbols page has now been re-ordered by color
Our Infiniti symbols page has now been aligned by color. We’ve have now transformed well over a dozen pages, including our primary symbols page, to reflect the new color ordering.
The page features a number of indicators that reach well over 80, now ordered red through yellow/orange/amber (depending on how you interpret the color!), the to green and blue and finally to black and white or gray scale. This generally provides a “mostly serious” to “simply letting you know” range. We used the term “mostly serious” here for red indicators because many legacy red symbols do not point to a problem with the vehicle at all.
Regardless, ordering by color provides a cleaner, simpler option for drivers searching for information.
