Most amps have a remote on terminal, which takes a small current wire to "turn on" the amp, and when you stop current to that terminal, it turns off the amp. It sounds like this current is still live when you turn the car off, so your amp doesn't know to turn off.

With the car off, test the lead at the remote on terminal (usually blue wire, as I do it) with a dc meter or test probe. If it reads +12v, it shouldn't. Find a new "remote on" power lead. This is generally provided by the "power antenna on" lead out of the deck. Run a wire to the amp from the power antenna on lead, and retest.

I'll bet on success after this.

2006 Infiniti G35 coupe. NO spark

Presumably you had to disconnect the battery, so you have to reset the security system which also includes the anti-theft engine immobilizer. Solid red light means NATS/IVIS is triggered, the ECM will still CRANK the engine but it will not open the fuel injectors or deliver spark. You may need a mobile auto locksmith to program it.

</quote>
Is your NATS/IVIS indicator LED solid red when cranking the engine? If so then yeah you probably just need to get it reprogrammed, or the RFID chip in the key failed. You can follow the troubleshooting steps in the FSM, section BL - Body/Locks/Security

Infiniti G35 wont open

You can not jump a dead battery

That is also an unsafe practice

Have to disconnect any battery that is
dead & try to charge it first or replace,
if it is over 4 to 5 years old & died

Purchased a new battery for 2003 Infiniti G35 6 weeks ago and went to get in my car tonight after not driving it for two days and now it won't start. What is going on?

Sounds pretty simple. If your starter is not at fault. you may want to check the alternator. If the reason for the battery change originally was due to the battery dying then the alternator could be the culprit.

Trunk stuck wont open with remote nor driver side switch

I had this problem on my 2004 G35x. I checked the trunk lock solenoid. It was OK. The trunk light was not working either. Turns out that there were three broken wires in the flexible harness between the trunk lid and the body of the car.
