Hello! So, my wife grabbed my truck key instead of the Murano key and stuck it in the ignition and it triggered the antitheft system and now my Murano key will not even turn in the ignition, and I do not have a key fob. How can I get it out of antitheft mode with no key fob?

Hi,

The anti-theft won't prevent the key from going into the ignition switch. Was there damage done to the key lock cylinder?

As far as trying to turn off the anti-theft, take a look through this link and let me know if it helps:

Let me know.

No, there was no damage done at all. The key won't even turn in the ignition. There is a red car with a key in the middle which indicates the antitheft system has been activated. I will try the methods you showed me later today and see if they work and I will update you by tonight!
