Put this in the convertible section but really belongs in the general tech question forum and I need help! Currently stranded in my garage.

2010 G37 Convertible was showing the SES light. Took to O'Reilley's and read codes. Had several - C1109, P0106 history, permanent & confirmed, P0463 history, pending & confirmed, U0164 history, pending, permanent & confirmed. Cleared OBDII codes with code reader. After reset vehicle shift lock stuck, climate controls won't work, gauges won't respond, radio will play and station memory is still there. Also was getting the Intelligent Key warning light.

I was able to pop out the Shift lock cover and get the vehicle in gear. I could drive home but climate controls, tach, speedometer, odometer did not register. Climate controls still won't work and seat heaters won't come on.

Got vehicle home, attempted ECU reset (multiple procedures so far but no success, probably operator error). I disconnected the battery for about 1/2 hour, pumped brake pedal several times with battery disconnected. Reconnected battery. Now the Intelligent Key warning is gone but shift lock still engaged and climate controls/dash indicators do not show. Vehicle starts and brake lights work.

I'm sure this is all due to the OBDII reset I did but how do I fix or is this going to be a trip to an Infinity stealership? I've got the battery disconnected again and going to try and leave it off for longer but really need help.

Help please!!! it's cold out there (5 F this morning) and New Year's day so naturally dealer isn't open.

FML!

 

Sorry man. No help.

INFINITI. nonetheless.

 

Still sitting in the waiting room at the dealership while they change my oil for free from a coupon received in the mail.

they discovered 2 blown 10 amp fuses that were hidden behind some other module, they were not fuses in either the passenger compartment or under hood. No idea what causes them to pop. Cost will be the diagnostics fee and the 2 fuses but they got me in and out right away.

Props to Plaza Infiniti in Creve Coeur Missouri for getting me in right away. They did a multinpointninspection and didn't try to upsell me on anything I didn't need. They'd like to sell me a car but, no convertible, no new car!

 

Let us know where exactly those fuses are and if it solves problem so we can document to help others in the future

 

Fuses were in the IPDM module - Intelligent Power Distribution Module. Service description was "Found that the shift assembly and the A/c unit was not getting power to both units, checked power and ground on both circuits and found in IPDM that fuses are blown causing this issue.

I've been researching online trying to find where this module actually is, seems to be under hood but pictures of it show plenty of fuses. They fixed the problem and didn't charge me for the fuses, granted that is a little charge but - hey, those things cost money. All I had to pay was the diagnostics fee, which is expected.

I apologize to Plaza Motors in Creve Coeur Missouri for calling them a "stealership" in my OP. They were extremely helpful, polite and as stated before didn't attempt to upsell on unneeded services. They pointed out things that could be fixed and how much it was. Service manager Kody Bradford did offer a service to inspect, adjust and lubricate the top mechanism. He said many 'vert owners do that in the spring. Quoted me a reasonable price as well.

 

Glad this was a simple fix.
