drysd4le Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 So, about a year ago, my lock switch from the internal of my key broke off the main board, disaster! Anyway low and behold it has now happened to my second key, obviously I must be pressing it like the hulk or something! I managed to get two used keys from a breaker mate, have replaced the board, blade and immobiliser internals with mine so the car still starts etc however I cannot reprogram the new fob for remote locking as none of my originals work to allow me to start the programming sequence. Has anyone any suggestions as Nissan quoted me almost £270 a key! Couple of helpful guys on here have offered me some possible send away options, but just wondering if anyone has any diy ideas?

BulletMagnet Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 (edited) This worked for me after loosing my keyprogramming while moving the innards to flip key housing. 1. Turn the ignition switch from Position 0 to ON 6 times within 10 seconds. 2. Then turn ignition switch to OFF position. Leave key in ignition switch. 3. After 2 seconds, the system will enter programming mode and will flash the warning lights twice. 4. Press and HOLD the unlock button on the keyfob. 5. While pressing the unlock button, press the lock button 3 times. 6. Release the unlock button. 7. The warning lights will flash once to indicate successful programming. 8. Repeat procedure 4 to 7 for up to 4 keyfobs. 9. When completed turn ignition ON, and the warning lights will flash 2 times. 10. Remove key, and check all keyfobs for operation. Also, once you start reprogramming you have to programm ALL the keys to the car, because the programming sequence will erase all previously saved keys Edited October 3, 2015 by BulletMagnet 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Payco Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 (edited) As above.Did mine last week without any problems.Timings are the most important thing.Nissan are crooks,they will only do exactly what Bulletmagnet has set out which is the process for resetting keys.

veeg33 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 I did the same as above but for some reason, my warning lights did not flash but I can hear my lights relay 'clicking'. Give it a few go, timing is the key. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drysd4le Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 (edited) Yeah they are from a 350z and it's a UK car, mate works in a breakers yard and got me the keys to try, didn't work though. Looking like i'm gonna be £270 lighter soon! Edited October 4, 2015 by drysd4le Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toon Chris Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) I have told the OP days ago that I can probably fix his old circuit boards if they are just mechanically broken, or make a new one up from the old and new circuits. No need for any bandying about of £270 dramas. Mate, ok it's not free but its cheap and all you need to do is ask Edited October 5, 2015 by Toon Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drysd4le Posted October 5, 2015 Author Share Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) Again, tried and tried and tried, I think the issue is that I do not have a working original remote to unlock the car and initiate the "handshake" I am having to manully open the car with my key. Total nightmare and just about to bite the bullet and part with £270! I appreciate your offer mate, I will pm you.

BulletMagnet Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Find a friend who can solder and transfer the microswitches from the keys from the breakers yard to your originals... Then do reprogramming procedure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drysd4le Posted October 7, 2015 Author Share Posted October 7, 2015 So........ I have a new one for everyone, I finally got the key coding to work! However, it involved me getting it by sheer luck as it only seemed to work for my by double clicking the unlock button after I went through certain steps! Very strange, but I now have working keys again! Cheers for all the help and direction though as usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
