Took the M45 to be retinited today, and they killed my battery or something

[nkeesy76]

I took my 07 M45 to the local tint shop today, well about half way through the tint job I looked in my car and seen all the LED's on the panel. Well I said something but didnt pay to much attention to it. Came back about a hour and half later and the had to push my car out of the bay. They told me they couldnt get it started. So I took the battery out had a friend run me to the local auto store and after 100 dollars still nothing. Had no idea what the prblem was? Well I do remember the led's on without the car running when i mentioned it I thought they would have turned the vehicle into the lock mode. Guess not. I ended up getting it towed about 30 miles to a closed infiniti Dealer. So thats my mission tomorrow. I hope they dont hit me with a big bill. The M45 only has 25000 miles so I hope it can be coverd from the warranty. Although i did have a Python remote starter/alarm installed about 2 weeks ago. I hope that doesnt void my warranty. Any Ideas fellas? PLease let me know where I went wrong thanks nick

You mentioned "still nothing" ..... no power or no vehicle ignition start-up?

A member had the same issue with no vehicle start-up. I think it was due to the battery being fully drained for a period of time and losing the coding to the ignition system. The dealer had to reprogram the keys.

Good luck

Yeah its crazy because when I get in the vehicle it sill shows when it recognizes the key because the key signal shows on the panel.

I'd like to know what happens.

I'd like to know what happens.

Well i went down today to the dealership and they took a look after the sevice charge of 100.00 and told me that the fuse box on top of the battery needed to be replace. So the guys that were tinting my car tried to jump it before i got there and messed the fuse box up. So I purchased the battery before knowing this all together theis ran about 265.00 , battery+install of a new box. And it came outta my pocket thas the crazy part. Not only that when i got the back i noticed the speakers werent working , so the mechanic came out and replace the fuses. So everything is cool now,, nah Driving form the dealership i went to turn on my AC and the fan was out! So i replaced them myself and finally I got everything in working order, For now on when I drop my car off for anything i will be taking my keys with me unless its at a infiniti dealer.
