Transponder Keys
Nissan keys come with transponder chips on the majority of models. The chips disable the immobilizer system so that no one can start your car without your permission. This system could save you a significant amount of cost in repair and replacement costs.
There are two kinds of transponder keys that are used: crypto and rolling code. Transponders that use rolling code transmit data both to and from the key as well as to the car's computer. The car's computer is able to verify the data sent by the key, and alters the code of the chip. This process is done in a secure manner, so that no one could intercept the information.
Crypto transponders transmit information in a more secure manner. These keys are encrypted, and cannot be copied. There are ways to circumvent this. The first step is to remove the cover from the key fob with either pliers or a screwdriver. The next step is to remove the chip from the keyfob before putting it onto a piece of adhesive tape. The tape must be attached to the ignition lock. Once you have done this begin the car with the new key. If this doesn't work, try repositioning your tape.
Contact a locksmith when your key is damaged or has been lost. Locksmiths can replace your key quickly and at a lesser cost than a dealership. They have the tools to reprogram your Nissan key if it is lost.

Key Batteries
Changing the battery in a key fob is surprisingly simple. The majority of Nissan key fobs have a standard, coin-sized, disc-shaped battery known as a CR2032 or CR2025 (the numbers indicate the size of the battery). These batteries are sold everywhere that sells standard coin-sized batteries. They last for a long time due to the fact that they're only used for passive purposes and don't have any connection with the car.
The first step in getting your fob running again is to check whether your key fob displays an indicator light for battery level. The KeyLab is a good indicator that the battery needs to be replaced. If you've got a brand new battery the key fob should snap together again in the event that the alignment is right.
A hidden standard key is also found in every Nissan key fob. This key can be used in a pinch as an actual key to open your doors and even start the car.
Place the spare key in the ignition, then press the clutch or brake to activate the starter button. To program an extra car key, you'll need to contact a locksmith that has security codes. Be sure to ask the right questions and choose a reputable auto-locksmith.
