Nissan Rogue Forum

This is how I did it on my Frontier and Titan but haven't had a chance to try it on a Rogue yet.

1. Just get in your vehicle and close all the doors.
2. Using your power lock switch lock all doors.
3. Insert your Ignition Key and remove it slowly from ignition switch. (97 and earlier remove it quickly)
4. When you see the hazard lights flash, put key back in ignition switch and turn it to the On position (but don't start the vehicle or you'll have to Start over)
5. Push the Lock button on remote, Hazard lights should flash Note:you have to reprogram all remotes when adding a new one , if you don't your old remotes will not work If you're doing just the one , turn ignition switch off, unlock the door, get out and give it a test run.
6. If you are doing more than one. While still in the Vehicle with the original Key in the ignition switch and in the on position use the master lock switch to unlock the doors and then re-lock, push lock button on the Second Remote, Lights should flash again , repeat if adding a 3rd remote, etc.
7. After you're done turn the key to off, unlock the door, get out and give it a test run.

I'm scared to try this method on my Rogue since if I do something wrong, my original could also fail to work. What is a FOB??? I can't seem to understand the difference between a FOB key and the key that I have. I don't think I have a FOB. My key and remote are a SINGLE RIGID UNIT. 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 :-)

I stay with my initial reply. The dealer is the pro with this reprogramming the key thing. In short, they have the know how.

That's correct, the key has to be registered with the ECM so if it's a new key you have to go to the dealership and have that done with the Consult. This is just to program the FOB portion (Like if you change batteries).
