Production of keys for Nissan cars

Description

Manufacture of Nissan keys. It is not uncommon to see a falcon emblem on the windscreen of a Nissan car. This is the logo of the NATS company, a Japanese manufacturer of anti-theft systems. The automotive group began introducing these systems in 1995. One of the elements of the Nissan AntiTheft system is a key with a built-in transceiver. If an attempt is made to start the car using the wrong device, the anti-theft system blocks the vehicle’s engine. The production of Nissan keys therefore has a number of special features.

Nissan key manufacturing – why not copy the key yourself?

The NATS system has been continuously improved since its inception. The first generations of keys looked like conventional keys, and to open the car you simply had to turn the unlocking device in the ignition lock. However, modern Nissan models are equipped with either ‘smart’ keys (with multiple control buttons on the body) or smart devices. In the former case, all you have to do to enter the car is walk up to the door. The immobiliser recognises the Intelligent key and allows you to control the car. To start the engine, you need to turn the plastic knob on the ignition lock.

The Intelligent device is part of the most innovative version of the anti-theft system. It is also equipped with a START/STOP button that only works when the key is in the cabin (in a special slot, on the seat or in the owner’s pocket).

The production of the spare key takes place in two stages. The first is the copying of the mechanical part of the key (the blade of modern keys is usually hidden in the pendant housing). The second is the recording of the codes of the push-button devices or the adaptation of the Intelligent Key Block. This process is better left to specialists, as the car blocks the engine from the very first attempt to program the chip on its own. Specialists have all the necessary equipment and programmes for tuning the immobiliser and Nissan keys. They will select the unique code assigned to the specific car and upload this data to the chip. The mesitras will then fully tune the system to ensure that it is error-free and responds in time when the owner approaches with the key. So, with the NATS system working properly, the car will be safe.
