Nissan Key Replacement Services
Nissan key replacement Austin Texas is our core service for drivers who need immediate help. We replace lost Nissan keys, fix issues with damaged or worn keys, and assist when your Nissan won’t unlock or start.

Nissan Key Duplication and Programming
Duplicating a Nissan key before an emergency is often the smartest move. Nissan key duplication in Austin Texas usually involves cutting a new blade and programming it to communicate with your vehicle’s security system. If you still have one working key, duplication is typically quicker and more cost-effective.
Many Nissan vehicles use immobilizer systems, which means a chip inside the key must be programmed. A key that is only cut but not programmed may unlock the door but will not start the engine. If you want a simple explanation, read how Nissan transponder keys work.
Remote buttons and smart key features are programmed separately from the blade in many cases. We test lock, unlock, trunk, and start authorization to confirm everything works correctly. For a detailed overview, visit this Nissan duplicate key guide.
Your VIN can help identify the correct key type and programming requirements. Learn what information it provides here: what a VIN number is.
Nissan Ignition Repair and Replacement
If your Nissan key sticks, won’t turn, or feels rough, the ignition system may be worn or damaged. Continuing to force the key can cause it to snap or jam inside the cylinder. Early diagnosis often prevents more expensive repairs.
We inspect the key and ignition together to determine whether repair or replacement is needed. In many cases, ignition repair restores smooth operation and protects new keys from damage. Learn more about symptoms and solutions at this Nissan ignition repair resource.
Transponder and Smart Key Services
Transponder and smart keys are common in modern Nissan vehicles. These keys communicate electronically with the car before it will start. If communication fails, the vehicle may not recognize the key even if it physically fits.
We program Nissan transponder keys, troubleshoot “no start” conditions related to chip failure, and pair smart keys for push-to-start systems. If you want a technical overview in simple terms, read what a transponder key does.
Proximity Keyless Entry System Assistance
Proximity keyless entry allows you to unlock and start your Nissan without inserting a key. When the system fails, the issue may be the fob, the battery, or the vehicle’s receiver. We diagnose proximity issues in Austin Texas and restore reliable detection.
If your Nissan displays “Key Not Detected” messages or only works intermittently, we test signal strength and system response before recommending replacement. For a basic explanation, see how proximity key systems work.
