could be an issue with the shift interlock switch/relay keepin the cylinder locked so you cant remove the key.....do you hear a clicking noise at the key cylinder when you press the brake?

Yea move the shifter from P-D and play with it the key. Or maybe your steering wheel lock is on, try wiggling the steering wheel.
I think i came across that issue once or twice a long time ago or maybe it was another car haha. But thats what I did.

Next time, try turning your steering wheel while trying to take the key out
I bet the steering wheel locked it

HOw about this key thing is more serious than i thought.
My key was stuck once again, and this time, it wouldn't come out, but the car wouldn't start either. I got a jump start and as soon as I put the car into reverse, the car died. I took the alarm key fob, off and locked the doors, left the hood popped, but not up, and left to buy a battery. Left the car at school overnight, came back in the am, and the car wouldnt start with another battery, so i put the old battery back, and when the tow truck driver broke into my car, and manually unlocked the door, I sat in the driver seat, and was able to release the key after putting the terminals back on the battery.
When I realized this, I attempted to start the car, and low and behold, the blood clott ting, start.
My initial question is why is the key getting stuck, and also why didnt the car start initially the first time? Is the alarm assuming the car is being stolen, and shuts itself down?
Need some answers, i know you guys dont just dress these cars up, without actually tinkering on em

are there any warning lights that remain on after 10 seconds?(brake, slip, abs). Does the car idle like pure crap, or feel like it wants to turn off? The only thing i can recommend is to take the car and keys to infiniti so they can reprogram the key, nats system, and transponder. Im looking into alldata now... 1 hour labor time. Should cost $120.00 to get it done.

nothing like that. idles fine. im just stumped as to why it wouldn't start initially. I think it may have to do with my parking brake sensor, cuz today the car wouldnt start, but as soon as i put the car in neutral and then back in park, it started.

you have an aftermarket alarm wired in?

nope? Im just going to run through my wires and check for continuity issues. it could possibly be my ignition, or even my parking lamp sensor, because it may be sending a signal that the car is not in park when it is. I'll figure it out

the brake lamp switch, shift interlock switch or relay (in gear shifter assembly), shift interlock assembly (on ignition switch)

yup thats what im thinking it is...cuz car wouldnt start again until i put the ignition in the on position, shift to neutral and then back to park, then boom it started, does anyone have an fsm, or link to download one
