Nissan Car Key Replacement
Nissan key fob batteries are easy to replace. But first you'll need to know if your car uses an intelligent fob, push to start button or regular remote/non-transponder key.
You'll also require your key code which should be kept in a safe location and must match the one that came with your vehicle.
Transponder Keys

Commonly found in newer vehicles transponder keys are typically found in newer cars. They contain an RFID microchip in the key which transmits a unique code to the car when it is inserted into the ignition. It is designed to ensure that only the right key can start the engine, and to prevent theft. Contact your local dealer or locksmith to see the demonstration of this technology.
When the transponder keys are inserted into the ignition, it sends an electrical signal to the chip within the engine control unit (ECU). The ECU is then able to determine whether the code contained in the key matches its own digital serial number. If it does then the ECU will then release the immobilizer, allowing the engine to start. If the code is not compatible with the code, the ECU will refuse to accept it and stop the engine from beginning.
They are more expensive than traditional metal keys but offer additional security. However car thieves have developed over time and found ways to get around this anti-theft system, so the extra cost is not enough to keep them from doing anything.

This means that when you push the key down it will move certain distance until it reaches an obstruction or triggers an internal spring. The switch will transmit the signal to start the car when the key is inserted into the ignition.

This means that if you lose your keys, it will need to be replaced with a new one that has been programmed to work with your specific vehicle. This requires more advanced key technology, which is only available through an locksmith for automotive. It is more expensive than a standard key replacement at the dealership.
