How to Replace a Nissan Juke Spare Key Nissan Juke is a fun and stylish hatchback with an unusual engine configuration. It's a bit noisy, but it's enjoyable to drive. Replace the key fob battery of your Nissan Juke every two years or when it is low. The KeyLab is easy to do at home, but you'll need a few tools. Dead Coin Battery If the key fob in your Nissan Juke has stopped functioning, make sure you check the battery for coins. It may be dead and must be replaced. This is a simple fix that takes only a few minutes. It's as easy as flipping the fob upside down and accessing the tiny latch/release on the back. Remove the battery that was in use and then replace it with a new one, making sure that it is facing downwards on the fob. Line between the two halves of the fob carefully. The fob needs to be cleaned if it has been exposed water before you can install the new battery. This can be accomplished by using a paper towel and isopropyl alcohol or electronic cleaner, and then waiting for it to dry completely prior to re-inserting the battery. The key fob needs to be connected with the car in order to start it, which is done by following the directions in the owner's manual or using an OBDII scanner. If the key fob has not been linked, it is most likely the reason of why it stopped working. It is also possible that the fob is equipped with an issue with the chip, but this is extremely rare. A new receiver module might be required in this situation. If this is the situation, it's best to be replaced by a certified technician. Water Damage Key fobs operate on batteries and the batteries should be replaced every two years or as soon as the car stops responding when you hit the “start” switch. Keys are fitted with rubber seals to keep water out, but placing the key in a pool or ocean water can damage the chip that is inside. If this happens, you will require a new key from Nissan or an automotive locksmith. It's possible that the computer has lost connection to the key fob, which could be caused by a variety of reasons. This can be resolved by restarting the car. If the “Key ID error” message is still visible, you will need to contact Nissan for assistance. Three typical causes are a dead key fob battery, a key that is not programmed, and an unrepaired key fob. The first two are fairly easy to fix, and the third is more difficult to identify and repair immediately, but it is usually fixable with a bit of perseverance.

Faulty Chip The key fob of your Nissan Juke has a special chip that transmits an indication to the car whenever you turn it. If that chip is faulty, it can cause the key to stop functioning. If this is the case, the problem can only be solved by replacing the key. Your Nissan Juke key may be damaged due to several reasons, including water damage or a dead coin-battery. Examine the chip for water damage If your key fob has stopped working after a wash or bath. Make sure that the metal clips that hold it in place are secure and that the chip is not exposed to any water. If you spot any signs of water damage to the electronic component, unplug the battery and wipe it down with isopropyl-ethanol or electronic cleaner. If the chip is faulty, you will need to visit the local locksmith or dealership. They will need to know the year, make, and model of your vehicle in order to find an appropriate replacement. You'll also need to write down the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) to ensure that the dealer or locksmith is aware of the exact key you own. This will allow them to find the correct key code and ensure that they cut the correct one. Faulty Receiver Module The key fob sends a radio signal to your vehicle, allowing it to perform various functions. The key fob can open your trunk when you are rushing with your groceries to the car or start your vehicle by pressing an icon on the fob. It can also open your windows and turn the horn on in the event that you lock the keys inside your car. If the key fob won't function, it could be due to a glitch in the receiver module. The receiver modules are tuned to receive specific frequencies that match the signals sent by the Nissan key fob. A faulty receiver module will prevent your car from responding to the signal transmitted by the key fob in Nissan. It's a good idea to have a spare Nissan key fob in the event that your original key is lost or breaks. A locksmith or dealership can program a spare key that works with your Nissan. This will allow you to avoid the hassle of losing your keys or locking them inside your car. If your Nissan Juke's key fob has been exposed to rain or clean tap water, you can fix the problem by cleaning it with isopropyl, or an electronic cleaner. If the chip is fried you'll have to purchase an alternative keyfob that could be coded for your vehicle by a dealer or locksmith.
