What makes Infiniti different
The Intelligent Key needs to be enrolled, not just cut
Cutting the right blade profile gets you in the door. Enrolling the key in the IMMU is what allows the vehicle to start. Both steps are required, and both are done on-site.
Intelligent Key system
Infiniti's Intelligent Key is a proximity-based passive entry and push-button start system. Each key has to be enrolled in the vehicle's IMMU (Intelligent Key Module) before the car will recognize it. A key cut to the right blade profile but not enrolled will not start the vehicle. Programming is not optional.
Shared Nissan architecture
Infiniti vehicles share their platform with Nissan, which means the immobilizer system is closely related. This works in your favor. The tools and techniques used for Nissan key replacement apply here too, and we carry parts and equipment for both brands on the same service call.
Dead or unresponsive Intelligent Key fob
An Intelligent Key that stops working entirely is not always a failed fob. The IMMU antenna, the 12V battery condition, and the fob battery all affect how the system communicates. Diagnosing which component is causing the issue before replacing the fob prevents unnecessary parts costs.
All-keys-lost on Infiniti
Losing every key to an Infiniti is a more involved job than a standard spare. The IMMU has to be reset and the new key enrolled from scratch. This is typically the job that sends people to the dealership. We do it on-site, at your location, for less.
No towing required. We come to wherever your Infiniti is parked.
All keys lost
Lost all your Infiniti keys
You do not need a working key to start the process. We reset the Intelligent Key Module and program a new key from scratch, on-site at whatever location the vehicle is at. Most all-keys-lost jobs are done in under an hour.

- IMMU reset performed on-site

OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. It is the genuine part made for your Infiniti, the same as what came from the factory. We also carry aftermarket and OEM refurbished options. A few things worth considering before deciding:
- How many miles are on the vehicle?
- How long do you plan to keep it?
- What do you use the vehicle for?Daily driving, family use, or occasional use
Aftermarket
A functional, lower-cost option. Works the same as OEM for everyday use. A good fit for older Infinitis or when budget is the primary consideration.
OEM Refurbished
A used genuine Infiniti key that has been tested and reset. OEM reliability at a lower price. A practical choice for mid-mileage vehicles.
OEM
A brand-new genuine key, the same part your Infiniti came with from the factory. Best choice for newer vehicles or if you plan to keep it long-term.

FAQ
Infiniti key replacement questions
What is the Infiniti Intelligent Key and does it need special programming?
The Intelligent Key is Infiniti's passive entry and push-button start system. Each key has to be enrolled in the vehicle's Intelligent Key Module (IMMU) before the car will recognize it. Standard cutting is only part of the job. Enrollment is required for the vehicle to start, which is why programming is included in every Infiniti key replacement we do.
Can you replace Infiniti keys without the original?
Yes. All-keys-lost Infiniti service resets the IMMU and programs a new key from scratch without a working key present. The vehicle stays where it is and the job is completed on-site.
Does Infiniti share key technology with Nissan?
Yes. Infiniti and Nissan share the same underlying platform, including the immobilizer architecture. The tools and programming techniques are closely related, and we service both brands with the same equipment.
My Intelligent Key fob stopped working — does that mean the fob is dead?
Not necessarily. The IMMU antenna, the 12V battery condition, and the fob battery all affect system communication. We diagnose the actual failure point before recommending a replacement, which often saves the cost of an unnecessary fob.
What Infiniti models do you service?
We service most Infiniti models including the QX60, QX80, Q50, QX50, QX55, and G37. Confirm your year and model using the quote tool above and we will verify coverage before scheduling.
How much does Infiniti key replacement cost in Charleston?
Infiniti key replacement in Charleston runs $125 to $185 for a spare transponder key or standard fob, and $225 to $295 for an Intelligent Key when you have a working key. All-keys-lost pricing starts at $185 and goes up to $365 depending on key type and the part quality you choose. Use the instant quote tool for an exact price.
