I figured out I was placing the battery in the wrong way thanks to this video. 😂 I had to break into my car twice because I left the key in the car because it wasn't detecting the key. As a result as well, I left the doors open one night and got robbed of a jacket and a bottle of liquor. But that was only worth $15. What was really bad was not being able to pick up a client so I lost $40 and time. So that's $55. Plus paying someone for help $5 to help open the door. So I lost $60. Lol. But I'm very thankful people make informal videos like this to help. Thank you so much.
Thank you fam...... This video saved my Ass today!!!! I was literally stuck outside in this Texas heat(102) for 6 hours until I watch how this video....Your the 🐐!!!!!💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
My problem started after changing batteries after a low battery warning. This video is great for getting the car started, but I found a solution that actually makes some small amount of sense. I believe that the root of the problem is that, though the instructions call for an CR2025 battery, many folks use the more common CR2032 because it fits and works most of the time. The problem is that the CR2032 is thicker than the CR2025. When using the CR2032, overtime, it pushes the negative contacts (the 4 spring contacts on the board) down far enough to make contact with the printed circuit board (PCB) metal pins beneath the contacts, causing an unexpected and unplanned for electrical situation in the circuit. By placing a piece of paper beneath the contacts to protect the PCB, this situation is avoided. I used small rectangular sections of the sticky part of a yellow sticky notepad and tweezers to do this, because the sticky side holds the paper in place. An alternative would be small pieces of actual tape and might work better because it is less likely to move from position. Like this comment if this worked for you. Good luck!
I tried multiple fixes...and I'll be damned this is the one that worked! Both of my key fobs were having the same issue with brand new batteries. I was using the CR2032 battery for each of them and I used the small piece of paper from a post it note under the contacts and it works now! Thank you for posting this fix @SteveSoundManEvans !
I found that this works even if the fob has no battery installed. There's a circular inductor on the fob's circuit board at the logo end of the fob, and I'm guessing there's a matching inductor inside the dash, either around or just past the Start button, and this wirelessly/inductively sends just enough power into the inductor inside the fob to allow the fob to be seen by the car. So as long as you still have the physical key to get into the car, you don't have to worry if the fob's battery dies altogether.
I am a Gram whose car (Nissan 2012) is in perfect shape. I love my baby girl. Today, though,- I went to a meeting. Went to hit top button to lock doors and secure car. Doors would not lock ! I struggled along for a few minutes,- and went in to meeting,- hoping my car alarm would protect my girl. Sure enough,- On my return,- the doors were still un-locked,- but my baby started screaming,- (alarm went off) In a panic I went online,- and found this and other videos on how to change battery in fob. It had been mentioned that the battery was needing replacement by my mechanic. Thank you,- for so much help in resolving this with your "How To" video !!!!! My baby is safe !!!!
And of course if your alarm goes off perhaps you locked the fob inside with a bad battery and you had to call AAA to unlock the car as I had to. Well when the door is finally opened by AAA then you can use the valet key inside to turn off the alarm.
Had changed the batteries on my remotes and they stopped working. Guess what, I put in the batteries wrong! Only realized it cause you mentioned this @ 2:56min mark. Thank you! Saved me a trip and cost of going to the dealership
I was having this same problem and what I found to work was to pull the key out of the fob and insert the key into your driver side door and lock the car twice and unlock the car twice. I was able to use the key fine for a month before having to repeat the process.
Have been dealing with this issue for about a year now didnt want to spend the money at the dealership. What i noticed was the contact points on the battery side were compressed. All i did was pull them out with some needle nose plyers so that when the controller is shut the pins touch the contact point on the circuit board. Hope this helps
Not sure if this will work for everyone but I found this while doing a remote start. Behind the instrument cluster is the ecu I believe. I had an issue for awhile and could not for the life of me figure it out. Not kidding, take out the instrument cluster (it's not hard) and push on the connectors on the box behind it. Took me over an hour of trying to figure out out. Pushed on the connector (specifically the 40 pin black connector at the top center) and it immediately recognized the key.
Thankyou so much just got a new battery I had noticed that it would take a few clicks to open and today it wouldn’t detect the key. So I’m glad that I just got a new battery and works sooo good Thankyou again 🙏🙏
Lo que dijiste ya lo había intentado pero nada me funcionaba hasta que viendo tu video me di cuenta que le había colocado la batería nueva al revés, 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 gracias por tu video
Good morning I put the key in the door like you said and it wouldn’t start. However, I opened and closed the twice and turned steering wheel to the left as you stated and PRAISE GOD it started. I will be replacing the battery in it Thank you
Great video, also just to make it to Autozone, O'Reilley's or Home, there is a key FOB holder close to where the Skid control button is - you can place the FOB in that holder and the car will start as well...Again, Great Video...Thanks!!!!
I've found that the battery contacts that touches certain points on pcb isn't making good contact. There are two places. One on the back cover, 2 prongs, and a 6 prong on the pcb. I gently bend them upwards, and clean the 2 small gold contacts with 90% isopropyl alcohol. Worked on both of my fobs.
I have a 2012 Nissan Rogue. It is not push button start, it has a regular ignition that you can put the key in even though you don’t have to. I have replaced the batteries in both of my keys multiple times, and I’m still having trouble with it not detecting my keys. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
I tried it ..it worked then I replaced my key battery but the very day I had the same issue. My brake pedal is hard and it wont again..Any answer for why my brake pedal is hard ? Great video by the way.
I bought a 2019 Nissan Sentra and this feature driving me totally insane. I am 66, high blood pressure, watched many videos, but it's all trial and error until it starts. I just want to trade it back after 4 weeks. Suggestions appreciated.
Hello, I need your help. My car is stuck because it won't start. I changed the battery in the key. I put a standard one from another car in it and I did everything you indicate in the video and it doesn't work, it doesn't do anything except starting it and I disconnected the battery, please help, I'm desperate.
I had to call a friend and once I got a boost from him it started up like new, I haven't had the problem since then. I do keep good quality spare batteries In the glovebox just in case. I checked my charging system and it's okay, so I'm baffled as to why it happened in the first place.
@@torontotonto4023 Thanks for replying! The “No Key Detection” indicator went away in my Altima. The push start button light comes on but nothing happens when I press the key FoB against it. You think I might need a jump? Thank you so much for responding
@@danielboston8806 yes, I'd jump it to see if it starts. It worked for me, my pathfinder Is a 2016 and now I carry booster cables full time just in case.
None of my fuses were broken when I took the positive side off. I'll check the inside of the FOB to see if the battery size 2025 is installed. Thanks for the suggestion; Steve from below.
Nice video man, you saved me a couple of hundred bucks, dropped my fob a few times, and it stopped working, so I didn’t know if it was broken or needed a new battery, so I changed the battery and it didn’t work, so I figured it was broke...so I watched your video and noticed you put the battery in the opposite way I did, & I thought I bet I put mines in the wrong way....low and behold...I did....ghesssh I feel like a NUMB SKULL🤦🏽♂️...thanks man👍🏽
Did all that another nissan sentra 2019 saying no key detected. Smart key when pushed and hold to the button vehicle starting every time but the remot does not function like locking unlocking, The fob is original battery changed frequency rested wiv my vvdi key tool max. Any other idea please?
I have 2015 nissan altima base trim and had this problem since i bought the car and replace several batteries. Honeslty, i am just starting this car by the trick that you showed in the video but my altima still shows " No key detected" everytime. Kindly, help me with that please. Thank you.
What about when this doesn't work, ive changed the batteries in the fob and a new battery for my suv and tonight it took over 10 times of doing what you did before it would start??
Hy thanks for your time. Nissan Murano 2017 gives this massage key No 2 no detected and dosent let the vehicle start sometimes specially with the 1st attempt can someone find me the right salutation. I was going to reprogram the keys.
I tired this but my car still doesn’t detect my key. when and I a new key from a locksmith and he can program it but it still doesn’t detect, let me unlock the car, trunk, or alarm. What should I do?
Did you try the break switch? Take it off and wd it and put back. Often people say just wiggling it works. Also could be car battery is low no? Should always update for others and you for years and years of references for millions too.
@@Vossen_Will there’s a module behind the glove compartment that links the wireless key to the car. you should be able to look it up on TH-cam on how to find it. most likely it is lose or you’ll just need to replace it. It’s around 20$ on eBay I think. 30 minutes fix.
Hi all. I was given a spare key fob with my used 2017 Murano. I lost my other fob. Anyhow, it needed a new battery, so I put in a brand-new Energizer 2032. It wouldn't unlock the doors, so I used the key to get in. I touched the fob to the start button which then lit up. I was able to start the Murano, but the dash stated, "No key detected" with another message below that that stated, "key 2 detected". Both warnings together and those messages came up 3 times. The Murano would now start with just touching the button, but it would give those same messages and the door locks, tailgate wouldn't work. Moral of the story, after 30-45 minutes of troubleshooting? As someone stated below, "don't put the battery in with the positive side facing upwards! And I would like to also add "don't drink and perform the battery replacement at the same time". LOL Thanks for the advice, George. And everyone else.
I changed the battery but the car only starts when I hold it up to the push start button. It also will not lock now or unlock. This is a 2019 QX50. What's the next solution?
I been doing this for a month and now my key won’t work at all. The key is fine got it check but the problem still happening. So would it be the key reader?
I have a 2011 nissan sentra and I have a key fob and metal key option like you showing in the video but i do not have a push start. My car only came with 1 key fob with metal key. I bought another compatiable key fob with metal key off of amazon. I know that the fob has to be programmed and the key has to be cut. But what I am wondering is that I can't seem to get a straight answer on is if the metal key also has to be programmed too? Do you know the answer to this? TIA (=
Can anti theft system can be triggered by trying to remove radio without tools, now my car wont keep running for more than half second. How do i fix that?
Need help ,my infinity g35s will not start, it used to tell me to step on The brake pedal, then push start, but this time it does not said step on brake pedal.
I changed the battery in my Intelligent fob for an Infiniti M37. The key fob buttons don't work and the I can't start the car without touching that Start button with the fob like you've shown. I've tried a couple different new batteries. How else can I fix this?
My Infiniti q 50s keys don't have a signal it's odd because the my key went literally the day after I missed my appointment at Infiniti I wonder if they have a signal jammer of some sort.. anyways. I picked up a replacement key from Amazon for $60 (FCC numbers match up) it's legit I don't know if a locksmith can program without a working key
@@davids5529 If you take apart the key fob you have the battery compartment with 2 prongs. Make sure they are not bent. On the PC board you have four prongs in the middle that provide the link for the energy to travel throughout the board from the battery. Make sure all of these prongs are pointing upward at a 35 degree angle as they were originally.
There is also a lady who is an electronics expert,- who checked the contacts to the battery (delicate work!) but is something you can also check,- if you find other issues.
I put a new battery in my key fob. I am able to start the car by putting it in the slot. However it won't start without putting it in the slot AND it doesn't open the locks. What can be the problem?
I was hoping you would send the link on the video for the Nissan Bluetooth keyless programmer. X431.. what is the cost of this obd tool to program using my phone. Thanks!
I have the dash on, the brake pedal works but the engine doesn't start. The dash's showing "KEY". All this is happening since I replaced dead battery in the fob. 4th day without solution. Can someone help please?
Help! My key fob for my 2014 Nissan Altima won’t start my car. It’ll unlock & lock my doors but won’t start the car. I tried holding it up to the START button & still nothing...tells me Incorrect Key ID
those steering locks result in many individuals stranded . as luck would have it they are definitely straightforward to diagnose in addition to the improved part is not really expensive . We have a DIY on it over at my channel as well .
Wow either I'm blind or there is nothing in the manual about how to start the car with out a working fob. Doing laundry I forgot my keys in a set of pants, needless to say when I realized it was too late. I took the fob apart dried it with a blow dryer and checked the battery with my volt meter. It said 2volt being a volt low I worried and went and got a new battery. The car started but I was so worried when I got to my local walgreens I locked the car knowing I could open the door with the key and left it running. Drove home and this morning dam thing wouldn't start. Watched your video and pressed the start button with the fob and it started but still will not start with the fob only by pressing. I don't think I can ever trust the fob very worried what this is going to cost to replace. 2016 Nissan Rogue.? Thanks at least I can get to the dealer now.
why does my Nissan Altima 2015 fab not work? any suggestions, people are telling me to have it reprogrammed, WTF? replace the battery and my $300 fab dont work, wont buy another Nissan for sure.
George, my 2012 Infiniti g25 has power. The fob unlocks,locks and opens trunk. Nothing else comes on. The only thing is a blinking red car with a key in it. I changed the battery out and it still doesn’t work with both of my fobs. Any advice would be much appreciated!
@@jasonlightbearer335 ok thanks J. A key guy supposed to be looking at it soon to let me know if the key fob is the problem before I end up getting it pulled to Infiniti dealer 🤦🏾♂️😭.
Joshua Powell do it yourself bro it’s not the key . It’s the same box that locks the steering wheel from turning . It has a metal slider inside that gets stuck when this happens it acts as if no key is around .
I've tried pressing the key fob against the push start button but it still doesn't start up, even after I changed out the fob battery. Am I still doing something wrong? Is my car battery low?

I have a 2011 nissan sentra and I have a key fob and metal key option like you showing in the video but i do not have a push start. My car only came with 1 key fob with metal key. I bought another compatiable key fob with metal key off of amazon. I know that the fob has to be programmed and the key has to be cut. But what I am wondering is that I can't seem to get a straight answer on is if the metal key also has to be programmed too? Do you know the answer to this? TIA (=
Basically does metal key need to be just cut? or does metal key need to be programmed and cut in order for it to start the car?
This trick got me home. Thanks bro. Great video
Can anti theft system can be triggered by trying to remove radio without tools, now my car wont keep running for more than half second. How do i fix that?
Hola mi carro es igual un Infinyti Qx60 año 2015 y tiene ese problema se le cambio la batería y sigue dando ese código de incorrecto
Need help ,my infinity g35s will not start, it used to tell me to step on The brake pedal, then push start, but this time it does not said step on brake pedal.
Mine did the same thing. It's acting a fool😠😠
This is freaking awesome and totally works. Thanks for the great video
I changed the battery in my Intelligent fob for an Infiniti M37. The key fob buttons don't work and the I can't start the car without touching that Start button with the fob like you've shown. I've tried a couple different new batteries. How else can I fix this?
Pandafam1983 I’m having the same problem didn’t u ever figure it out
Did you wnd up having to reprogram the key? Im having similar issues
They have other electronically issues, sometimes or most of the times the battery is not the issue
soolly 357 what’s the other issues? I changed the battery 3 times
My Infiniti q 50s keys don't have a signal it's odd because the my key went literally the day after I missed my appointment at Infiniti I wonder if they have a signal jammer of some sort.. anyways. I picked up a replacement key from Amazon for $60 (FCC numbers match up) it's legit I don't know if a locksmith can program without a working key
@@davids5529 If you take apart the key fob you have the battery compartment with 2 prongs. Make sure they are not bent.
On the PC board you have four prongs in the middle that provide the link for the energy to travel throughout the board from the battery. Make sure all of these prongs are pointing upward at a 35 degree angle as they were originally.
I have a 2007 Altima and it tells me no key found.
And also my f.o.b
Will not unlock my doors do I need a new f.o.b.?
I have tried all these steps.
This video just saved my life!!!
thank you very much this video saved me from being dumped away from home 💜
You saved my life today and I love you forever, ok?! 🤣🤣
How would you fix an issue with the fob buttons? The key works perfectly to start it but none of my buttons on the fob work
How do you program a new smartkey for a Nissan pathfinder 2014
There is also a lady who is an electronics expert,- who checked the contacts to the battery (delicate work!) but is something you can also check,- if you find other issues.
But what about the flashing orange symbol on the dash? What does that mean? Just bought this car. Great video though.
Thank you so much!!! I thought I was stuck there for a hot min lol. Your a life saver!!! 👍💯
Does it depend on the year.? Mine is 2008
I put a new battery in my key fob. I am able to start the car by putting it in the slot. However it won't start without putting it in the slot AND it doesn't open the locks. What can be the problem?
I was hoping you would send the link on the video for the Nissan Bluetooth keyless programmer. X431.. what is the cost of this obd tool to program using my phone. Thanks!
Thanks u helped me fix my key fob problem ❤
I have the dash on, the brake pedal works but the engine doesn't start. The dash's showing "KEY". All this is happening since I replaced dead battery in the fob. 4th day without solution. Can someone help please?
Help! My key fob for my 2014 Nissan Altima won’t start my car. It’ll unlock & lock my doors but won’t start the car. I tried holding it up to the START button & still nothing...tells me Incorrect Key ID
Hey ! Buddy ! Thanks , Thank you a lot ! I was able to solve! Thank you again !
Wowwwww this just got me out of a bind . Thank you !
those steering locks result in many individuals stranded . as luck would have it they are definitely straightforward to diagnose in addition to the improved part is not really expensive . We have a DIY on it over at my channel as well .
Super great video! I am very impressed ! Thank you so much!
Thx bro save my life last night😅
Wow either I'm blind or there is nothing in the manual about how to start the car with out a working fob. Doing laundry I forgot my keys in a set of pants, needless to say when I realized it was too late. I took the fob apart dried it with a blow dryer and checked the battery with my volt meter. It said 2volt being a volt low I worried and went and got a new battery. The car started but I was so worried when I got to my local walgreens I locked the car knowing I could open the door with the key and left it running. Drove home and this morning dam thing wouldn't start. Watched your video and pressed the start button with the fob and it started but still will not start with the fob only by pressing. I don't think I can ever trust the fob very worried what this is going to cost to replace. 2016 Nissan Rogue.? Thanks at least I can get to the dealer now.
Changed the battery and still says no key detected
Same trying to see how to reprogram
Lana Regush me too changed battery nothing
why does my Nissan Altima 2015 fab not work? any suggestions, people are telling me to have it reprogrammed, WTF? replace the battery and my $300 fab dont work, wont buy another Nissan for sure.
LOL
If the primary keyfob and the spare are unrecognized, I believe the vehicle needs to be reprogrammed. A dead battery isn't always the cause.
In my case it was showing me key Id incorrect and the problem was one small fuse in left side below the buttons.
Thanks for the info! I thought I was stranded but you’re suggestion worked!!
i jus just got called to say you can get it to to
Thanks a lot my friend, you save a lot of works trying to solve my problem...
S
Thanks for the DIY tip.
George, my 2012 Infiniti g25 has power. The fob unlocks,locks and opens trunk. Nothing else comes on. The only thing is a blinking red car with a key in it. I changed the battery out and it still doesn’t work with both of my fobs. Any advice would be much appreciated!
Team Prestige did you eve get it fixed?
Jason do u have any information on this that would be helpful
Joshua Powell yes it was steering wheel locking mechanism . I removed put a screw thru mechanism and put it back
@@jasonlightbearer335 ok thanks J.
A key guy supposed to be looking at it soon to let me know if the key fob is the problem before I end up getting it pulled to Infiniti dealer 🤦🏾♂️😭.
Joshua Powell do it yourself bro it’s not the key . It’s the same box that locks the steering wheel from turning . It has a metal slider inside that gets stuck when this happens it acts as if no key is around .
Worked as charm! Thank you!
I've tried pressing the key fob against the push start button but it still doesn't start up, even after I changed out the fob battery. Am I still doing something wrong? Is my car battery low?
Wondering if you got the problem fixed? I'm having the same problem.
holy shit thank you brother i was stuck in the cold with this car and i just searched for the heck of it
Thank you George for a great helpful video. Appreciate!
Thank you so much! You saved my day!😊
Solution is at 1:25 GENIUS
What if u put a new battery in a the key still doesn’t work please help ?
