How Infiniti car keys and key fobs are programmed, by model year, what you can sometimes do yourself, and when a mobile automotive locksmith is the faster, safer choice. Dealerkeys programs Infiniti keys on site across East Tennessee.
Infiniti uses a different key system for older and newer vehicles. Find your vehicle below.
Method: On-Board Key Fob / OBD2 Transponder
Note: Transponder chip keys require OBD2 programming tool (NATS system).
Method: OBD2 / BCM Security Code
Requires OBD2 programmer with Nissan/Infiniti 20-digit BCM to PIN conversion software for smart key fob programming.
Note: High security rolling code immobilizer.
This guide is general information. Procedures vary by model, trim and equipment, and a wrong attempt can leave a vehicle unable to accept new keys. Call or text with the year, make and model, and we will tell you what yours needs.
Some older Infiniti models (G35, FX35, Q45, I30, M35, 1998–2009) list an on-board method above. Even where one exists, it usually needs a working key or remote to start it, it differs by model and trim, and it often programs the remote only, not a chip key. Newer Infiniti vehicles, and any key whose chip the car must recognize, need a diagnostic programming tool.
