Infiniti Q50 key fob replacement in McKinney, Plano, Frisco and nearby cities starts with knowing which key your year uses. The 2014-2023 Q50 uses an Intelligent Key. Our Apex Locksmith Pros technician cuts and programs your Q50 key on-site by VIN, wherever the vehicle is parked, and pairs it to the immobilizer so it starts the engine. Before a technician heads out, you hear the flat total on the phone, and no call-out fee is added.

What Key Does the Infiniti Q50 Use?
Every Infiniti Q50 (2014 and up) uses Nissan/Infiniti's Intelligent Key: a proximity smart fob with push-to-start. There's no metal blade you turn, but each fob hides a small emergency key inside that fits a backup slot for the door. The fob talks to the car's BCM (body control module) over an encrypted handshake, so a new one can't just be cut and tossed in the cupholder. It has to be registered to your specific Q50, and on these later Nissan-platform cars that registration is pulled and written by VIN with a programmer like an Autel IM508. We read the security data, add your new fob, and on most jobs your existing keys keep working. If you've lost every key, we can still get you a fresh one made and synced on-site.
The most common Q50 call
The most common Q50 fob complaint we hear is a "Key System Error" or the dash flashing the no-key symbol while the fob's sitting right in your pocket. Most of the time that's a dead CR2032 coin battery in the fob, not the car. Swapping the coin cell usually clears it. If it doesn't, hold the fob against the start button and press it that way, the Q50 reads the chip up close even with a weak battery. When the button itself stops responding or the case has cracked from years of pocket wear, the smarter fix is a fresh fob programmed to the car rather than nursing a failing one.
Infiniti Q50 Key Fob FCC IDs
Flip your fob over: the FCC ID is printed on the back of the case. Find it below, or just read it to our dispatcher. It tells us the exact remote your Infiniti Q50 takes before the van rolls out.
| Years | Key type | FCC ID |
|---|---|---|
| 2014-2023 | Intelligent Key | KR5S180144014, KR5S180144204 |
Trim and market can change the fob, and several IDs often fit one model year. We confirm the exact part by VIN on every job, so a mismatched guess never reaches your driveway.

What Do Infiniti Q50 Owners Ask?
Straight answers for Infiniti Q50 owners in McKinney and nearby cities: which key your car uses, what to have ready and how on-site programming works.
Yes. As long as you've got at least one working Intelligent Key, we add a spare on-site and your original keeps working too. We pull the security data by VIN, register the new fob to your Q50, and you drive off. No dealer trip, no appointment weeks out.
We can. An all-keys-lost Q50 takes longer than adding a spare because we have to generate a brand-new key from the car's security data, but we do it right in your driveway by VIN. Bring out your photo ID and proof you own the car and we'll get you a working Intelligent Key the same day in most cases.
Q50 proximity smart fobs run more than a basic transponder key because of the push-to-start electronics, but our mobile rate still comes in well under what an Infiniti dealer quotes, and we come to you. Adding a spare costs less than an all-keys-lost job. We give you the exact price by VIN before any work starts.
We do. Every Q50 runs Infiniti's Intelligent Key, so a 2016 takes the proximity push-to-start fob with the small emergency key inside, registered to the BCM by VIN right at the car, and your existing fobs keep working on most jobs. Lost every key? Still a driveway fix. Any Q50 year is covered.
It depends on the year. 2014-2023 Infiniti Q50: KR5S180144014 or KR5S180144204. The ID is printed on the back of your fob case. Trim and market can change it, so we confirm the exact part by VIN before the van rolls out.
