my car runs and start good but when it's left under the sun it wont turn on and gives off a clicking sound from the ECCS. Does any one know what might cause this problem and how to fix it?

Do you have any error codes ? I would say that your starter solenoid is going bad. Or it could be that your injectors are leaking causing the flooding. I am not sure if nissan has a clear flood mode, but you can try holding down the gas and cranking a car for 10 sec.

The check engine light. Try taking it to autozone to have them scan the codes, you might not have CEL but the car could still register something.

autozone will only check if the car is obdII. check the tech section for checking the ecu.
