Came to the conclusion that I fried my ignition switch. I found a ignition switch assembly with key from an 04 g35.. will I be able to use it on my 03 g coupe 6mt ? I have everything apart and know how to take my old one out is it just a simple replace assembly and call up a locksmith to program my old key to the used assembly I installed or do I have to get blanks and have him cut/program the key and replace the ignition switch fuse because of the short in the assembly it would keep popping the fuse.
I dug the chip out of my key and put it in a new one when I landed on my keys a year ago and broke it in half. If you take a little time you can get it out without snapping the plastic like I did.
The problem is the door locks won't match the ignition locks.
Programming can be handled by a locksmith or you can pry out the RFID chip from the key and physically swap the chip to a new key.
im probably just gonna keep both keys for the manual locks one for ignition and one for if I ever need to unlock the doors by the key. You think I should be ok just dremeling the rivet and disconnecting the 3 connectors on the cylinder and retracing steps replacing a new one and I should be hood from there having the lock smith reprogram and cut a new key ?
