There is an Infiniti service bulletin for this that replaces a control board. I had it done on my car (back in 02 or 03).
 
   ITB03-007b
VOLUNTARY SERVICE CAMPAIGN 2003 INFINITI G35 SEDAN; AUDIO FINISHER CIRCUIT BOARD
On some model year 2003 G35 Sedans manufactured through August 21, 2002, the audio and temperature controls may not operate as expected. When using the audio equipment or the temperature controls, the unit may become inoperative. In some cases, this can be corrected by turning the ignition switch off and back on again. In other cases, the unit remains inoperative and requires service by an Infiniti technician. To prevent this condition, Infiniti has initiated a Voluntary Service Campaign to replace the audio finisher circuit board on these vehicles. Use Infiniti Net to confirm if a specific vehicle is affected by this service campaign (P3104).

I have been experiencing this exact problem for 2 months now. When I hadn't started my car all weekend, then my car won't start on a Monday morning. I had the battery replaced twice, but the problem still persists. How long have you had the problem? You 've ruled out alternator already? I have a 2003 G35 sedan. Other than the gas mileage and this problem, I love this car...

I copied that from infinitihelp.com, but they require some sort of registration to get the full details now. they do have a free registration, but I didn't look into it. Possibly also at nhtsa.gov

Ok i was working on my 04 infiniti G35X sedan. I am fixing all the rattles and all the vibrations. I really love this car and take extremely good care of it. This was an accident. this is what happened. I opened up the front passenger door panel unscrewed it and lifted it up and away. i didnt disconnect any wires. i got a wrench and was tightening the bolts. as i got to the bottom of the door i saw a little blue light go from the wrench to the bolt and all the interior lights the vanity mirror lights, the map lights, the door lights, and rear door overhead lights went out as well as the trunk light. I replaced the fuse in the fuse box. Can anyone please tell me what the problem is i want to fix it without taking it to my INFINITI DEALER. They will charge me a fortune. PLease tell me if i can repair it myself. And how much it costs to do so or if you have any tips. I live in miami FL, so if you know any good cheap auto lighting places please let me know. Thank you.

2003/2008 Electronics Problem by radioman18

There are threads on the Forum referring to 2003 and 2008 electronics freeze-ups. I discovered today that Infiniti is shipping a large number of control boards for 2008 vehicles experiencing nav, audio, and climate freeze-ups. There are so many dealer requests for the control boards that there is a production/shipping backlog of about 4 weeks. The freeze-ups may be effecting cruise control and outside temperature readings, as well. Check with your dealer about a possible Service Bulletin on the freeze-ups. While waiting for the replacement part, you may be able to re-boot the system by turning the ignition off and on a couple of times. This isn't a permanent fix, but restores the system to temporary operation.

I am having the same problem and the dealer is positive it is the Audio Finisher, but says my serial number is not included in the Voluntary Service Campaign. My problem is intermittent -- the dash lights, a/c and stereo go out. Sometimes I can restart the car and it will work. It will cost me a minimum (with a refurbished stereo) of $1200 to repair. My Boss stereo was just replaced with a new stereo in 7/06. Does anyone know of anything I can do to get Infinity to cover my costs?
Also, I was told by Infinity dealer that I absolutely could not put an after-market stereo in my car because the a/c controls would not work. Does anyone know if that is true?

I have that same problem of the ac controls and the radio buttons not working. What do I need to do to fix the problem for free or cheap. I thought of getting a new CD player would that fix the problem? What is the web sit for infiniti's service, or problems that are discontinued?

We got another opinion from an expert in Tennessee and he says it is the ignition that is the problem. He said they saw where replacing the stereo did not fix the problem. He said to try giggling the ignition switch when it failed to see if it would work, and it did.

Add me to those with the continuous battery drain problem (03 G35 sedan). I was also starting to have problems with the 6-CD changer, but thought it was unrelated. This week it went into the shop (Nissan specialists) and they determined it was the control module. $730, and they said the CD player was definitely not working right and they'd order a new one next week. Problem was the thing continued to click continueously even after the ignition was turned off. It's Friday at 5:30, so I take the car anyway (I've spent $200 on a rental for the week while the G35 was in the shop). So I get home, and try pulling the audion fuse -- clicking continues. Try a few other fuses, one at a time, just to see -- put them back one at a time so no mixups. I disconnect the battery and leave it for a couple of hours. I go back out to try a few more things -- I reconnect the 12V, and now the car will crank strongly, but not start!!! What in the world? The fuses are all fine. Now I have to wait until Monday to start his process all over again. And now that I'm reading more of these posts, I'm starting to wonder if a repair is in sight, and at what cost. I love the car, but this kind of electrical problem can be a deal-breaker -- might have to start looking for something new... While I see others with the same problem, has anybody gotten this problem FIXED???
