My car will not start.
I just bought a brand new battery.
I checked ALL my fuses in my car.
I tried starting the car with both fobs.
Replaced the battery in the fobs.
I checked to make sure my brake lights engage when pressed.
I don't believe it to be the issue where the switches on the brake are faulty.
When I am in the car, I have a yellow "key" light at the top left and a flashing red security light at the top right. When I put the fob in the holder on the bottom left it the button lights up and is on "lock"
When I press it, nothing happens.
I tried this with both keys.

Also, now the car, when locked is beeping, one louder beep followed quickly by a lower beep. The dash lights up saying "no key"...odd because the car should be locked and just done with....

Any ideas?

I believe the keys to be blown out or need new programming. How would I do this if I cannot get the car to start/take to the dealership? Can I bring them just the keys? Pricing?

Thanks for all the help, this is very frustrating.

This has been resolved. It was a faulty steering lock, Nissan is having a lot of cars come back for this, part is on back order. Took 2 weeks for my car to get done.

Thanks.
