Transponder Keys
Nissan keys are equipped with transponder chips on the majority of models. The chips disable your vehicle's immobilizer so that nobody else can start it without your consent. This method will save you lots of cost in repair and replacement costs.
There are two kinds of transponder keys which are rolling code and crypto. Transponders that roll code transmit data in both directions between the key and the car's computer. The car's computer confirms the data sent by the key then alters the chip's code. The procedure is carried out in a secure way so that no one is able to intercept the data.
Crypto transponders transfer data in a more secret way. They are encrypted, and cannot be copied. There are ways to get around this. First, you must remove the cover from the key fob with a screwdriver or pliers. Then, you need to remove the transponder chip from the fob and place it on a piece tape. In the end, you'll need to place the tape on the ignition lock. Once you've done that then start the car with the new key. If that doesn't work, try repositioning the tape.
If you've lost your key or is not working, contact an locksmith. thekeylab.co.uk can replace it for you quickly and at a much lower cost than the dealership. They also have the equipment needed to reprogram your Nissan's key should you have lost it.
