Different Key Fob

neodc · 06-03-2011, 11:37 AM

Hey people, first post from me,

I'm in the UK, our forums are pretty dead as the cars rather expesive here and costs over £110 to fill the tank..anways

I've been watching these forums for ages and i thought i'd ask a question

Loads of you guys on here have a keyfob with 3 buttons on it, my manual states i should have 3 buttons, but my bottom button is a blanker. I understand the third button can open windows, set off an alarm etc..

My Nissan dealers dont know what i'm talking about so i wondered if anyone has any idea how i can get a uprated fob or if anyone the states has upgraded. My dealership thought it was a bit petty and not worth their time to look into it for me..

Thanks in advance.

Wait. So you're saying your key fob doesn't look like this?

Yeah it does, exactly the same. But the 'alarm' button is blank for me and doesnt click in.. obviously its not a button, but it'd be nice to get one that does open windows etc.

My FOB has a "Z" on it instead of Nissan

neodc · 06-03-2011, 11:49 AM

Thats mine.

TheGreatOne · 06-03-2011, 11:53 AM

Hmm, no panic button...you may get raped

lol

FYI - I've seen FOB's with the Panic button on EBAY...so you can definitely get one

neodc · 06-03-2011, 12:16 PM

I think they changed the FOB with the 2010 models. My '09 has the Nissan logo just like an Altima and other Nissans. BTW are we sure the UK models are equipped with the panic capability? It may take an additional relay to blow the horn and flash the lights...?

Here's the key that came with our 2011 purchased in March:

Is that plastic where the key ring attaches now?

Econ · 06-03-2011, 02:21 PM

the 09's says nissan, '10 and '11 say Z

Lemers · 06-03-2011, 02:27 PM

Hmmm. Why would Nissan delete the panic button from the FOB in a deferent market? Maybe some kind of socialist law against panic buttons?

TheGreatOne · 06-03-2011, 02:35 PM

I will say I hate when I accidentally set off the panic button when I'm in my underground parking

You would want the panic button over there especially if you pulled up to a Football match displaying the wrong colors

"The UNLOCK button operation also allows
you to open a window that is equipped with the
automatic open/close function. (See “POWER
WINDOWS” in the “2. Instruments and controls”
section.)

To open the window, push the door UNLOCK
button*2 on the Intelligent Key for about
3 seconds after the door is unlocked.

To stop opening, release the UNLOCK
button.

Window cannot be closed using the Intelligent Key."
