Infiniti Key Programming

Infiniti uses Nissan’s NATS immobilizer, so any key that starts the car — chip, remote-head, flip, or push-to-start intelligent key — is programmed by an automotive key professional with a tool, not the dealer, and still well under dealer pricing. The older standalone keyless remotes you can program yourself. Find your model below.

Keyless-entry remote — program it yourself

Infiniti’s standalone remotes sync onboard with the 6×-insert method — about 5 minutes, no tools. (This is for the separate keyless remote; a key with a chip that starts the car still needs an automotive key professional.)

  1. Close and lock all doors using the driver’s-side power lock/unlock switch.
  2. Insert the key into the ignition and remove it 6 times within 10 seconds (do NOT turn it) — the hazard lamps flash to confirm programming mode.
  3. Insert the key and turn to ACC (accessory).
  4. Within 5 seconds, press LOCK on the first remote — the door locks cycle to confirm it programmed.
  5. For each additional remote, press LOCK within 5 seconds of the last. Turn the ignition OFF, remove the key, and test.
