Guys can anyone tell me whats going on here.. I just bought a car on auction.. pressing on the buttons on the key does not open or lock doors, putting the key into the "key" hole, starts up a car...

Any help would be appreciated

Have you checked/replaced the battery inside the key fob? It is a coin cell ... type 2025, as I recall. Should be in the Owner's Manual ... PDF available at http://www.infiniti-techinfo.com if you do not have one!

Another possibility: you may have to get the key re-programmed at an Infiniti dealer ... but, since the car starts, this shouldn't be the issue.

Thank you for your feedback szhosain. I will see if changing the battery helps.

Most Excellent™! Glad it turned out to be relatively simple fix.
