Suppose you have recently purchased a Nissan vehicle or are considering purchasing one soon. In that case, it is essential to know how to use the key fob push to start to take advantage of all that the car offers. So, whether you are a first-time Nissan owner or are simply looking for a course on programming your key fob push start, read on for all the information you need.
Easy Steps to Program Your Nissan Key Fob for Push Start
1. Ensure that your key fob is not inside the car and outside with you.
2. Open your car's trunk and locate the emergency release latch (often red). Pull on this to open the emergency trunk release.
3. With the trunk open, locate your car's OBD port (a small rectangular box on the driver-side wall of the trunk). Unscrew any cover plate to expose the port and place it aside for future use.
4. Locate the red release button on the side of your car's OBD port and push it in as you pull out at the same time (you will now unlock the OBD port).
5. Make sure that your Nissan key fob is nearby and ready for use. Ensure that there is no battery in the key fob because you need to push a button to program it.
6. Put your key fob into the OBD port and align it with the car's OBD port, ensuring that they are appropriately aligned.
7. Now that your key fob is aligned correctly with the car, press and hold the "LOCK" button on the key fob.
8. After you have held down your key's "LOCK" button for around ten seconds, press the "UNLOCK" button immediately afterward.
9. After around fifteen seconds have gone by since you have pressed your key fob's "UNLOCK" button, release both of the buttons on the key fob and take your key out of the car's OBD port.
10. Press your car's "UNLOCK" button to ensure that it has successfully programmed your key fob.
11. Put the cover back on the OBD port and screw it in place, using your hands or a tool of your choice.
12. Close the trunk and test out the push start!

The Nissan push start system is a convenient way to start your car. Nissan has long been a market leader in keyless entry and push-button start, with the Nissan Key Fob. So, whether you've lost your key fob or just bought a new car, follow these instructions to get started.
