Owner's Manual?

Page 2-14 from 2009 Manual:
CRUISE Intelligent Cruise Control(ICC) system warning light
(orange; if so equipped)

This light comes on if there is a malfunction in
the Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC) system.
If the warning light comes on, park the vehicle
in a safe place. Turn the engine off, restart the
engine, resume driving and set the ICC system
again.

If it is not possible to set the system or the
indicator stays on, it may indicate that the system
is malfunctioning. Although the vehicle is
still driveable under normal conditions, have the
vehicle checked at an INFINITI dealer.
Page 2-16:
CRUISE Preview Function warning light (orange; if so equipped)

The light comes on if there is a malfunction in
the Brake Assist (with Preview Function) system.
If the warning light comes on, park the vehicle
in a safe place. Turn the engine off, restart the
engine, resume driving and set the ICC system
again.

If it is not possible to set the system or the
indicator stays on, it may indicate that the system
is malfunctioning. Although the vehicle is
still driveable under normal conditions, have the
vehicle checked at an INFINITI dealer.
Also 2-21:
Cruise set switch indicator (DOT MATRIX DISPLAY) :
The indicator is displayed while the vehicle
speed is controlled by the cruise control system.
If the indicator blinks while the engine is
running, it may indicate that the cruise control
system is not functioning properly. Have the
system checked by an INFINITI dealer.
See “CRUISE CONTROL” in the “5. Starting and
driving” section for details.
Which one applies to your specific situation? Either way the dealer is the only one who can give you the right answer.

I don't have the icc cruise just the standard cruise. so it sounds like the one from page 2-21. I downloaded the fsm but it seams to only list the icc system. O well I guess I will have to take it in to the dealer if the problem continues. I waited half and hour and went out and started the car and the light was then out. if any one else has experienced this I would like to here what the problem is.

Nismo, Just had similar problems with ICC in my G. Problem went away and then
reappeared multiple times after pulling and resetting fuse (the fuses were not blown).
I took it to the dealer and they "recalibrated" the radar system to fix the issue.
Good Luck

My point was the problem "reset" when the fuse was removed and
replaced....an electrical issue perhaps. No my VDC was not off, I
always leave it on.

I had the same issue with my car, and the dealer ended up replacing the Cruise Control steering wheel switch the first time....

the problem came back....

then they replaced the ECU....

the problem came back....

then they replaced the brake switch.....

the problem came back....

and they finally replaced the clutch switch, and it has been fixed now and working for about two weeks. Just take it in, it should be throwing a code.
