How Infiniti immobilizers work
Infiniti uses Nissan's Intelligent Key architecture with the PIN stored in the body control module. Q50, QX50, QX60 and QX80 are proximity-key vehicles throughout their recent generations.
No locksmith can honestly promise every Infiniti model and year. Whether a key can be made for yours — and where — depends on the year and system. Call (312) 478-6125 with the year, model and VIN and ask before anyone is dispatched. Mr Locksmith is an independent locksmith and is not affiliated with Infiniti.
Common Infiniti key types
- Intelligent Key (proximity)
- Transponder key
All keys lost on a Infiniti
Infiniti all-keys-lost means recovering the BCM PIN first — the same core procedure as Nissan, with model-specific differences in module access.
Worth knowing
An Infiniti proximity key that fails at only one door points to that door's antenna or handle sensor, not the key. Replacing the key will not fix it.
Before you call about a Infiniti key
- The year, model and trim of your Infiniti
- The VIN — visible through the windshield on the driver's side, or on the registration
- Whether any working key or fob still exists
- Where the vehicle is: driveway, street, parking garage level or commuter lot
When the technician arrives, expect to be asked for photo ID and proof of ownership — the registration, the title, or a lease or financing agreement in your name.
Car keys by make
Key types, immobilizer systems and all-keys-lost notes for each make. Call with the year and model to confirm what can be done for your vehicle.
Common questions
My Infiniti key fob battery died — how do I start the car?
On push-button Infinitis, press the brake and touch the start button with the Intelligent Key. Some older models have a key slot near the steering column instead. The mechanical key inside the fob opens the driver's door.
What does adding a spare Infiniti key involve?
Adding an Infiniti key needs the BCM security PIN and diagnostic equipment, and registration on many models rewrites the key list — every key you want to keep must be there.
