nissan key fob replacement Car Key Replacement

Replacing a Nissan key fob battery is generally a quick and simple process. But first you'll need to know if your car uses an intelligent fob, push to start button or regular remote/non-transponder key.

You'll also need your key code which should be stored in a secure location and should match the one that came with your vehicle.

Transponder Keys

Most often found in modern cars, transponder keys include an RFID microchip within the key that transmits a specific code to the car when it is put into the ignition. It is designed to ensure that only the correct key can start the engine and stop theft. If you'd like to learn more about the technology's working, contact your local locksmith or dealer to schedule an explanation.

When the transponder keys are inserted into the ignition, it transmits a signal to the chip within the vehicle's engine control unit (ECU). The ECU is then able to determine whether or not the number in the key matches with its own digital serial number. If it does, then the ECU disables the immobilizer in order to allow the engine to start. If the code doesn't match, the ECU will reject it and prevent the engine from starting.

These keys are more expensive than traditional metal keys but give you extra security. The cost of these keys is higher than traditional metal keys however they offer more security.

Many people ask if they could copy a transponder keys for themselves. The answer is yes but it's best to leave it to professional auto locksmiths. The process can also vary dependent on the make and model of your vehicle.

Mechanical Keys

Many older Nissan automobiles were equipped with mechanical keys. These traditional metal keys did not have remote functions, and were capable of unlocking the doors and the ignition cylinders in the car. Locksmiths can repair the internal components of a damaged key or a damaged case and create a replacement key that functions exactly like new. A reputable and experienced auto locksmith can also cut you keys at a lower cost than a dealership.

There are various types of mechanical keys that each have their own distinct replacement procedure. Linear switches have an actuation chart that is linear, for instance. When you press the switch down, it will move until it comes to the stopper. When the key is inserted into the ignition, the switch will send an electronic signal to the car to turn it up.

Intelligent keys have a chip inside them that communicates with the computer system in your vehicle. This means that when you lose your keys, it will need to be replaced with a brand new one that has been programmed to work with your particular vehicle. This requires a higher level of technology for keys that is only available through a specialized automotive locksmith, and will cost you more than a regular replacement key would at the dealership.

Key Fobs

Key fobs have become a standard feature in most cars since the mid 1990s. They let you unlock, lock and arm the alarm of your car with the pressing of a key. Many people believe that the systems are secure enough that only someone with access to your keycode can drive off with your car. Unfortunately, this is not always true. In a couple of easy steps, people who aren't terribly careful can take advantage of these systems.

Most key fobs use rechargeable CR2025 or the CR2032 batteries, and they generally last between two and three years. If you're unsure of how to replace the battery, consult the owner's manual for instructions.

If your key fob doesn't work due to a larger problem, it may need to be replaced or programmed. These issues can be more complicated than simply replacing the battery and keys could require an auto locksmith's help.

A functional replacement key fob could save you the expense of an extra trip to the dealership, as well as the hefty fee to replace your lost ignition keys. Fobs emit frequencies that communicate with the computer of the vehicle to perform tasks such as locking and unlocking doors or trunk release, and the sounding of a panic alarm.
