Nissan Keyless Programming Instructions
In spite of how many Nissan models there are, one set of keyless programming instructions can be used for almost every model and model year of Nissan that has the keyless entry feature. Aside from knowing these instructions, you'll also need to understand that entering the programming mode deletes the car computer's memory of previous remote authorizations. Therefore, you'll need to program all remotes together in the same programming session for each of them to work again.

Tips & Warnings
If you are unable to program the remote, either find the directions in your owner's manual or log onto a website that offers keyless remote programming instructions for your particular model and year. A few models for the most recent years do not allow manual reprogramming; these require programming at the dealership, forcing you to pay upwards of $100 per key.
