xx1i4c. Official Nissan key no longer being recognised by my Qashqai Friday 23rd February 2018 Hello All,I have finally decided to get a second key for my Qashqai J10 (2011) as it was bought with only 1. Got the mobile auto electrician round this morning and now have:> 1 new programmed key BUT> my original key no longer is recognised for central locking and engine starting. Pres the buttons... nothing. Turn the key in the ignition, nothing....He checked it is still giving out a radio signal. Everything is the same ie blade and electronics, but it seems adding the new key has knocked the original key out somehow. He tries numerous times to copy the new working key onto the original key, but with no joy. In the end he gave up. Anyone know why, and what the solution is? Thanks in advance.

Hence me asking here is there is an alternative method! Friday 23rd February 2018 Did you get both keys programmed at the same time? I got the impression that any new keys would have to be encoded at the same time the original key(s) were recoded. I could very well be wrong.

NK then worked, but OK strangely stopped. He tried to reprogramme OK using NK but to no tried this numerous times, with 2 different machines.

Hence me asking here is there is an alternative method! Well, you would have paid the other guy? If you've only had 1 key to date, another 3 weeks isn't going to hurt, whether that's convenient or not is subjective and something you missed in the original an aside, you asked for a solution, not an alternative option, sell this car, and buy one that comes with two working keys. Friday 23rd February 2018 Get an auto locksmith who knows what they are doing rather than an auto electrician Friday 23rd February 2018 Local Mazda dealer charged me £270 for a new key that wouldn't work as a remote, expected me to open the car and let the alarm go off and then turn the ignition on to stop the alarm. Said it needed a whole new alarm system at £800. This was after 3 weeks and 3 attempts to get the right mins from the owners forum showed me the technique to code all keys in 2 mins....Have a look here: it suggests it's a similar procedure I used: irc 3,687 posts 115 months Friday 23rd February 2018 In the linked thread " I took delivery of my lovely 59 plate silver Acenta QQ last Tuesday. It’s the nicest car I have ever owned! Unfortunately, the garage could only provide one key,"Personally I'd be wanting to test both keys for a second hand car before handing my cash over.

I am a fair man. The extra three weeks will 'hurt' as I am looking to sell the car. I don't see how the inconvenience is 'subjective'? It is 'objective' due to the nature of my job. The fact is waiting three weeks and having to drive a long way to an authorised garage is an inconvenience. Why are you questioning this?Yes I asked for a 'solution'. An "alternative method" would hopefully give me the 'solution'. How are the two mutually exclusive?To address your final point, is a key with one key just as marketable as one with two keys? In my opinion no, so not as easy as you suggest to 'sell this car' if I want a decent price for it. Do you give all new posters on this forum such a warm welcome Big Dom, or do you like flexing your muscles with the new, inexperienced little guys?Edited by NISSANDAL on Friday 23 February 16:55 Friday 23rd February 2018 TooLateForAName said: Get an auto locksmith who knows what they are doing rather than an auto electricianSorry, my mistake, it was an auto locksmith not an auto electrician.

Friday 23rd February 2018 If the electrician has just cloned the other key's ID without incrementing it, chances are once he used it once it would then keep encrypting the rolling codes to the new key - the old one is left out of the sequence and no longer has the right hash to decode the signal should be set up with unique IDs so that the codes are A bit more detail on defeating the HiTag RKE scheme used by the Quashqai here: by Krikkit on Friday 23 February 17:00 lbc 3,134 posts 196 months Friday 23rd February 2018 It sounds like too many keys have been programmed for the vehicle will probably need to go to a main dealer to reset the number of keys allowed.

I didn’t advertise as having one key, I didn’t see any price drop, did you get a discount when you purchased? To be fair, you have two keys, so sell as this is the main key, this is the unlikely to be resolved outside of taking it to a main dealer now as both keys are likely to be factory reset to the ecu, so you’re likely to have to put yourself out if you want to sell it with two keys; unless there’s such a thing as Nissan independent specialists?Flexing muscles.
