Transponder Keys

Most Nissan cars are equipped with a transponder chip in their keys. These chips disable your vehicle's immobilizer mechanism so that no one else is able to start it without your permission. This feature can save you a lot of money on repair and replacement costs.

There are two kinds of transponder keys that are available: rolling code and Crypto. Transponders that employ rolling code transmit data to and from the key and to the car's computer. The car's computer verifies the information sent by the key then alters the chip's codes. The process is conducted in a safe manner so that no one is able to intercept the data.

Crypto transponders send data in a more secret way. The keys are encrypted and cannot be duplicated. However there are ways to circumvent this. First, you have to remove the cover of the key fob using a screwdriver or pliers. Next, you have to remove the transponder chip from the fob and place it on a piece tape. Finally, you need to stick the tape to the ignition lock. Once you've done that begin the car with the new key. If it doesn't work, try repositioning the tape.
