got a new one I think. installed HU amp and subs and now my car tells me there is no key detected. but if I put it in the slot it lets me start the car?
where is the receiver for keyless start system?

OH OH!! I'm having the same problem and have been having it for over a year now. Exactly the same. What did you do???

I haven't fixed it yet. the only thing I can think of that I did not plug back in was the rear electrical connector in the center console? I zip tied it up by the power port cuz It looked like it was a blank plug kinda like the rear fog light is. I might go recheck that tomorrow. 6 hours of install today with all the wire routing and tearing apart the car. im done

Also if this helps you, it's probably not the fog light. I have a nismo.

To answer your question, the master control module for the wireless antenna is underneath the center console.

at the rear of the center console? if so then problem solved I know I didn't plug that back in. I wasn't saying it was the fog light.. I was referencing the blank plug looking thing. I didn't see abox of any kind at the back on the center console but ill got look and ill repost.

so tore apart my center console and plugged that "blank" back in. I check all my wiring again and the 2 big connectors right under the HU (big black ones wrapped in foam) were loose. not falling apart but they had about 1/8" of push-in left. Vwaa laa. key works with out putting back in the slot. coulda been that back plug or that loose connector either way im good to go and I fixed my air bag light just like the instructions said. BOO YA
