If its NATS (Nissan Anti Theft System) you can disable it with an Uprev reflash, lots of guys do this when then get tuned so that they can use unprogrammed keys (Its like $200 just to reprogram the key at the dealer). You can't just mechanically disable it though. PM me if you want to give it a try, I've done it many times
i had a question I’m looking into buying a Infiniti g35 coupe s, but he talk about an imobilizer problem could you help talk me through the details and what it would take to fix it

Fix =/= disable
There are two types of ignition systems for the G35, a traditional RFID keyed system and the Intelligent Key system (push button start). Both work in similar ways but with different components and technology.
The components of the NATS is programming in the BCM, CAN system to ECU, NATS antenna / Intel key unit (depending on which is equipped).
The problem could be as simple as the battery in the intelligent key needs replacing or the RFID transponder in the regular key is failing. Or it could be complex like the BCM itself is shot, your options to fix would be to completely disable the NATS system through an UpRev tune or to diagnose and repair the system (recommend the Nissan dealership for the diagnosis).

Hey I have a question about my infiniti g35 coupe 2007, I disconnected the battery and now my ignition and steering wheel are locked. The key shaped icon pops up on my dash but comes out red. Any suggestions ? I believe it’s the NATS but not sure how to disable it.

Red key icon means the system doesn't detect any intelligent key present. Change the battery in your fob, you may have screwed something up and the BCM lost the key information which requires a trip to Nissan to have the BCM programmed again. You can also hold the i-key directly ON the start button as directed in the owners manual which helps with weak signal (antenna is mounted on the side of the ignition lock cylinder).

IF it is the NATS malfunctioning that is causing it to not start then yes we could fix it with an Uprev reflash, but over email I could not guarantee you that that was the only problem

G35 Infiniti wouldn't start, alarm system
Car wont start. Lights turn on and everything, and there is no clicking noise.
I called AAA and they said it wasn't the battery, and its probably the cars alarm that wont let it start, i disconnected the battery recently.
I looked through the manual and the best explanation I got was the "Infiniti Vehicle Immobilizer System". The procedures to reset it didn't work.
Any ideas? I'd really appreciate it.

If the NATS indicator light is solid red then you have an immobilizer interlocking the ignition. Usually though when you turn the key and there is NOTHING (no click, no crank, no nothing) then it's just a starter going bad.
If this only happens when the engine is HOT but once it cools down a little then starts then you DEFINITELY have a starter going bad.
