Exclamation G37 not starting after GTR ignition switch Swap

Hey fellow Infiniti owners,

I apologize if this is in the wrong section this is my first post.

I recently ordered a GTR oem OEM button from Amazon. I successfully installed the button, the car turns to accessory and the dash lights up, but when I push the clutch in and hold the push start button, the car does not start. I called the dealership and they told me that the button needs to be programmed to the key, and but every video I have watched does not state that as a requirement. Has anyone had this problem and are there any suggestions?

Thanks in Advance.

"Button needs to be programmed." 🤣🤣🤣

Double check your work, totally possible a wire was screwed up, or it wasn't clipped in perfectly. Its a tight fit for my hands on that install, and I cracked one of the clips just by looking at it.

Also could be completely unrelated to the install. Someone more knowledgeable on the 6MT will chime in.

Check your work. Button does not need programming. I've done this on my 6mt plug and play. Is your battery dead?

I just helped member on this forum do this mod for their 6MT. Double check the connector that hooks to the back of the button. It's a tight squeeze so there's a good chance it isn't 100% seated.
