Most Nissan smart key jobs fall between $180–$350 when you have a working key (spare/duplicate), and $280–$550 for all-keys-lost situations. Pricing depends on the year, fob type (Nissan KR5TXN7 vs newer encrypted variants), and whether the immobilizer needs an EEPROM-level reset. Our auto locksmith in Burbank quotes a firm price upfront — typically 30–50% below Nissan dealership rates.

We program smart keys for Altima, Rogue, Sentra, Pathfinder, Murano, Frontier, Maxima, and Kicks from roughly 2010 through current model year, plus most other Nissan vehicles equipped with proximity entry.

Yes. Nissan I-Key not recognized or key system error warning light is a known Nissan pattern we resolve regularly. We diagnose the root cause on-site — fob battery, antenna fault, rolling-code desync, or immobilizer corruption — then reprogram or replace the affected fob. All Nissan smart key work is backed by our 1-year warranty on parts and programming.
On 2013+ Altima, Rogue, and Pathfinder, that warning typically means the I-Key has lost its registration with the BCM, or one of the four interior antennas has failed. We diagnose with CONSULT-III equivalent tooling, re-register up to 4 fobs, and confirm antenna health — all on-site in Burbank.
