Nissan Key Replacement in Houston

Between Nissan vehicles the Altima and the Rogue make up the bulk of our business in relation to Nissan in Houston, and all of this work is done by Paul Car Key Houston regardless of where your vehicle may be parked. There is one aspect about the vehicle in relation to its structure that we feel you need to know prior to making your call, and that is the location of the security data.

Intelligent Keys and Ordinary Keys

Our technicians work with many Nissan models, including the Altima, Versa, Sentra, Maxima, Murano, Rogue, Rogue Sport, Armada, Frontier, Titan, Z Series, Pathfinder and Ariya.

The proximity fob in a Nissan is known as the Intelligent Key, and in any car equipped with this function, both the remote control and the identity that the car will verify before the engine starts must be registered instead of only one. Old Nissan models with the bladed transponder key system are much simpler, and thus, less expensive. The transition period between these two types of vehicles varies depending on the model, so the year of manufacture is the very first question we'll be asking when you call for help, and it is definitely what determines the price.

Holding the Fob Against the Start Button

One of the most common Nissan problems reported by customers involves the refusal of the vehicle to respond to the fob unless it is placed right on top of the start button. The great news is that this problem is not a fault but rather a fallback plan of the car when the battery installed in the fob becomes depleted. It's better to solve this problem before the battery dies altogether, because it takes no more than a minute to do it.

When Every Key Is Gone

The loss of the last functional car key should not necessarily imply towing your car to the dealership, in most cases our specialist will program a new key right where the vehicle is, including in your driveway or garage, at the office or at your home address. After the new key or Intelligent Key has been programmed, we test the new key to see whether it works properly and activates the remote control functionality if any.

Nissan Fobs That Have Been Through the Wash

Nissan Intelligent Keys are so tiny in size that they can be easily slipped into the pocket and unintentionally washed in the washing machine. Do not attempt pressing the buttons continuously or expose the fob to high temperatures in case it gets wet because this will cause further damage, take out the coin cell battery, if possible, and let the key dry well. In any case, our technician will be able to evaluate the fob and check whether it is worth repairing depending on the degree of the water damage and the state of the circuit board.

Nissan key fobs can be cut, programmed and tested right where your car is parked all we need from you is to be ready with your driver's license and vehicle documentation and we'll take care of making the new key, so call us now we're waiting at (832) 910-9448.
