I.e., I have a key that goes in the slot, and at the end of my key is the electronic unlock,lock,panic console. I think a FOB is different, but I don't know in what way.
---I know that the 'programming' will be something silly and easy like what you're stating. I have a B.S. in Physics with a Minor in Mathematics, as well as I am an electrician by trade. I don't want to get a wool pulled over my head with the locksmith's/dealership's so-caled 'programming' when in fact, I suspect it will something as simple as what you're describing. But, again, you stated that you did your method on a different model other than a Rogue. I am hoping to find the EXACT method used for a Rogue, as I am fully confident I can handle the approach myself, provided Ace hardware or whatever can handle cutting the for a couple bucks. Can Ace hardware deal with bulky keys with the electronic heads??? Thanks for your reply to my forum and your new forum. I didn't think anyone was actually listening. Thank you very much :-) |
The programming method is generic for all current model Nissans, including all Rogue models.

A
key fob is a generally decorative and at times useful item many people often carry with their
keys, on a ring or a chain, for ease of tactile identification, to provide a better grip, or to make a personal statement. The word
fob may be linked to the low German dialect for the word
Fuppe, meaning "pocket", however, the real origin of the word is uncertain. Fob pockets (meaning 'sneak proof' from the German word Foppen) were pockets meant to deter thieves and a chain was used (called a Fob Chain) to attach to items, like a pocket watch, that you would place in them.

Fobs vary considerably in size, style and functionality. Most commonly they are simple discs of smooth metal or plastic, typically with a message or symbol such as that of a
logo (as with conference
tchotchke) or a sign of an important group affiliation. A fob may be symbolic or strictly aesthetic, but it can also be a small tool. Many fobs are small
flashlights,
compasses,
calculators,
penknives,
discount cards,
bottle openers,
security tokens and
USB flash drives. As electronic technology continues to become smaller and cheaper, miniature key-fob versions of (previously) larger devices are becoming common, such as
digital photo frames,
remote control units for
garage door openers,
barcode scanners and simple
video games (e.g.
Tamagotchi) or other
gadgets such as
Breathalyzers.
