Transponder Keys
The majority of Nissan vehicles come with a transponder chip inside their keys. These chips disable the vehicle's immobilizer mechanism so that no one else is able to start it without your permission. This system can save the cost of repair and replacement costs.
There are two kinds of transponder keys including crypto and rolling code.
The KeyLab that employ rolling code send data to and from the key, and to the car's computer. The computer in the car is able to verify the data sent by the key, and then alters the chip's code. This is done in a secure way, so that no one can intercept the information.
Crypto transponders transmit information in a secretive way. They are encrypted, and cannot be copied. There are ways to circumvent this. You will need to remove the cover on the key fob using an screwdriver. You'll then have to remove the chip from the keyfob and put it on a piece adhesive tape. The tape must be attached to the ignition lock. After you've done this begin the car with the new key. If it doesn't work, reposition the tape and try again.

Key Batteries
It's quite simple to swap the battery in your key fob. The majority of Nissan key fobs utilize an ordinary, coin-sized disc-shaped battery known as a CR2032 or CR2025 (the numbers indicate the battery's size). These batteries are available everywhere that sells standard coin-sized batteries, so they're easy to locate. They last a long time due to the fact that they're used primarily for leisure and don't make any connections to the vehicle.
Verify that your key fob's display has an indicator light that indicates low battery. This is a clear indication that the battery needs to be replaced. If you've got a new battery, the key fob should snap back together when it's properly aligned.
Another thing to be aware of is that every Nissan key fob includes an extra standard key hidden inside of it. This key can be used in a pinch as physical keys to open your doors and to start your vehicle.
The spare key should be held against the ignition, then press the brake or clutch to turn on the starter button. You'll need to contact locksmiths who have the necessary security codes to program a spare key for your vehicle, so be sure to ask the right questions and choose a reliable auto locksmith.

This kind of key can only be made by a specialist auto-locksmith using the appropriate tools for programming keys. It is possible to bring your vehicle to a breakdown service, but you might be waiting for a long time or discover that they don't have all the tools to complete the job.
