Nissan Leaf key replacement and programming
Leaf has used Intelligent Key with push-button start since it launched for 2011. There’s no ignition cylinder, so replacing a lost Leaf key is mainly a programming job.
Leaf key systems by model year
Year ranges follow Leaf generations and are approximate. Trim, build date and factory options can change the system within a year, so we confirm it from your VIN before dispatch.

Lost every Leaf key?
If no working key remains, we can program a new key to most Nissan vehicles at the car. Programming can involve extra security steps, so it takes longer than adding a spare. We confirm your system from the VIN first.

Important compatibility notice — final key compatibility must be confirmed
The key images, vehicle models, and year ranges shown on this page are provided as a general identification guide and may not apply to every vehicle. The manufacturer may use different key systems within the same model year depending on trim level, production date, manufacturing location, ignition type, and factory equipment. Final compatibility must be confirmed using the vehicle’s VIN, ignition type, existing key or fob, and vehicle information before service. The images are representative examples and do not guarantee an exact visual match.
A current registration or title and matching government-issued photo identification must be verified before automotive key, lock, or immobilizer service is performed.
