How to program your key fob

This remote can't be programmed with a do-it-yourself procedure. The vehicle needs a diagnostic tool connected to its OBD port to pair a new remote, so a replacement has to be set up by an automotive locksmith or a dealer.

Order the correct replacement remote below — match the FCC ID on your current fob first — then have a local automotive locksmith or the dealer program it to your vehicle.

Find your key type below, then match the FCC ID printed on the back of your existing fob — or, for a plain transponder key, the blank code — to be sure of the right part.

Proximity Key

Stays in your pocket — the car unlocks and starts without inserting a key.

FCC ID: CWTWB1U787

Photos show the OEM part for each number listed. Aftermarket replacements sold online are often slightly different in appearance — the FCC ID, not the shape, is what determines whether a fob will work with your car.

Infiniti Q70 key fob battery

Your Infiniti Q70 key fob uses a CR2032 3V lithium coin cell. A fresh one typically lasts 3–5 years.

How to replace the battery

1 Slide the release latch and pull the metal emergency key out of the fob.
2 Use that key (or a coin) to pry the two halves apart at the seam.
3 Lift out the old coin cell — note which side faces up.
4 Drop in the new battery the same way (printed + side usually faces the back cover).
5 Press the case back together until it clicks, then test lock/unlock and push-to-start.

Battery tips

Use a fresh, name-brand 3V lithium cell — bargain cells drain quickly.
Even with a dead fob battery you can usually still start the car by holding the fob against the start button — check your owner's manual.
If the fob still won't work after a new battery, it may need re-syncing or programming.
