i bought a keyless entry remote off of ebay and i cant seem to program it.. can you buy OEM remote that doesnt work? and were can i get a cheap one that does work
If your car has an OEM Keyless entry and you need a remote to work with it, I just found a place the other day that sells OEM remotes fairly cheap and it includes programming instructions as well. Here's the link:
This is how I programmed my remote. I would recommend that you do the same:
1. Get in the car and close and lock all doors.
2. Put the key in the ignition and remove it completely 6 times in 10 seconds. If done correctly, your flashers will blink once and you will enter programming mode. Turn the key to accessories mode and press any button on your remote within 5 seconds. The flashers should illuminate again briefly.
3. Turn the ignition off and remove the key.
4. Unlock and open the door. Exit the car and shut the door.
5. Try your remote out. It worked flawlessly for me!

I just bought a keyless control from eBay, after I followed you instruction (step 2)
. Insert and remove key 6 times in 10 sec, I saw the flash
. Turn key to ACC
. Pressed the "lock" button -- but I did not see anything flash.
My question is,
How do I know if the battery (of the remote) still good?
or the remote I just bought simply DOA?
It works for any Nissan! I work for Midway Nissan in Phoenix!! I program cars all day!!!!!
Hi Vtech, listen I followed the instructions to the t on how to program the keyless remote for my 97 sentra but I can't get it to work. This is what am doing:
1. Get in the car, close it and lock it. (I have locked it both with the remote and manually)
2. I put the key in the ignition and proceed to remove it completely 6 times in 10 seconds. My flashers do not blink.
I have even continue with the complete process even though the flashers don't blink just to see but nothing.
What can I be doing wrong? please help, maybe you have come across this problem at the nissan dealer you work at. Thanks, Felix
Yeah, I'm having the same problem with my Pathfinder. I'm using the exact same steps, but my hazards aren't flashing after I've inserted the key however many times. Is there something that I'm probably doing wrong? I'd like to know if there is some type of extra trick to it.
I can't get it to work on my '03 Altima. I can get the flashers to blink, but only for a second and they turn off. At that point I continue following the steps, but they never flash again and it doesn't work.
