Maybe the gear stick is not all the way in park. It has to be in the whole way to p.

Try moving your steering wheel to the left then jiggle the key until it releases, if no luck try the same thing moving the steering wheel to the right, or combination of both ways, If this works then there is nothing to worry about, it can happen almost to any vehicle, you are just in between the wheel locking mechanism and the ignition start or the removal of the key, a common problem in the design of the wheel lock, to prevent it from happening again, just have your steering wheel were you want it before starting or turning off you car.

I bought a 2001 infiniti i30 without remote, now that I bought a new remote and try programing it with no luck, I followed all directions multiple times. I don't get the second set of flasher

1
Enter your Infiniti, closing the door behind you.
2
Use your power door lock button on the driver's side door panel to lock all of the Infiniti's doors.
3
Complete this next step within 10 seconds of completing step 1:
Insert your key into the ignition of your Infiniti and pull it back out 6 times. You will be alerted by flashing lights when you successfully complete this step correctly. NOTE: Withdraw key completely from ignition cylinder each time. If this procedure is performed too fast, the system will not enter 'programming mode.'
4
Next, re-insert the key into the ignition and turn the key to the ACC setting, (immediately before the "On" position.) Within 5 seconds of turning your key in the ignition, push any button on your keyless entry remote. Once again, lights will flash when you have correctly performed this step.
5
Turn key to off position and remove key from the ignition.
6
Exit the vehicle and close the door to end programming mode.

Why can't I unlock my ignition and start my car?

Put one hand on the steering wheel and rotate slightly left and right alternatively whilst turning the ignition key at the same time with the other hand. This might release the steering wheel and start ignition.

Hope this helps.

Infiniti won't start, security system

Your PATS key may have to be reprogrammed to the car.
PATS(Passive Anti-Theft System).
Some key and lock shops may have the scan tool to do it, otherwise a trip to the stealership.
