Cruise control button stopped working 1996 nissan maxima, I've replaced it twice but it's stil not working, What to do?

are you sure that the switch is bad and not the vacuum line that operates the cruise function. check under the hood for a loose hose or a vacuum leak.

When I put my 98 Maxima in gear, it starts making a very loud noise under teh car. It will go into gear and move, but the noise will only stop if I put it in park or neutral.

If noise comes from transmission in D range -no drive.Then i thing of AT internal problem. If in D during driving then you have to check drivetrain,like axles or bearings. or AT.

1996 nissan maxima wont start, windows wont roll

I think your ignition switch has quit working, or it has stopped getting power. If you pull the connector apart to the ignition switch and check if there is one wire on the harness side of the connector that has power, it sure looks like a bad ignition switch. One fat wire, about 12 gauge size, going into the switch should be hot at all times. If you have it, pretty obvious that power is not going out of the switch. key on should send power out of the switch to the fuses for the windows and other accessories, and also send power to the dash for the warning lights and gauges. Power to the switch will be either from one of your fusible links near the battery or from a maxi fuse in the fuse/relay block under the hood. The funny action of the key kind of points to the ignition switch, though. Still, check for power into the switch first.

1996 nissan maxima loses power when driving only

Your theory has some merit, but when this problem occurs, you should also see a "battery" warning light on your dash or a drop on your Volts gage (if our car is so-equipped). Another possible cause is something in the ignition/spark or fuel system. A cracked or ill-fitting distributor cap, an old, worn or cracked spark plug wire, or even a poor connection on your fuel pump could cause similar symptoms. When this happens, does your Check Engine light come on? If so, read the code stored in your onboard computer and look at the system that causes the code to set.
