Key fob programming

[kennett85]

I bought a 1999 QX4 a few years ago and the previous owner had lost the key fob. So I purchased one online but I can't get it to program. I've followed the instructions here but when I finish with step 2 I don't get the hazard warning lamp to flash. I'm pretty sure I'm doing it right. So I'm not sure what could be wrong. Can someone help me out here.

Are you sure you have the right fob? Please post all of the numbers off the back.

The key fob I have is number 16 on this site.. But here is the info off the back.

Model/
FCC ID: KBRASTU09
Canada2111102950A
KANSEI CORPORATION
BRAND NAME INFINITI

I think that's what you meant. Why wouldn't my car enter programming mode whether I have the right key fob or not?

I would call your dealer to verify its right. I know for my 2001, there are two different FOBs, Model A and Model 01A.

If I have the wrong type of key fob the car won't go into programming mode then?

You must do it quickly

That post lies you only have a few seconds to insert anr remove just keep doing it till the hazards flash dont worry if you do it more than 6 times.

Me and 2 other people have tried to do it as fast as we can. And it still won't do it. Is it possible something could be wrong?

[zach7685]

its possible but make sure you FULLY take key out

[kennett85]

Since the instructions I have are incorrect could you please tell me the correct ones.
