Damm chip transponder keys!

Never hurts to get a second one cut and programmed. As a bonus though you can program the remote central locking fob without a needing a nanocom. Bought one last year off fleabay and did it myself.

After owning Iggy for almost 18 months I'm reasonably impressed. A bit shopping trolley bland, but super reliable and cheap as chips to run. Just the sort of car you need when the Landy, Alfa and Jag are being a bit demanding.

Cheers

Don't worry about the responder keys.

They are the most common easily stolen car at the moment, Vic roads and Vic police have sent letters to owners.
They are used in crimes.
My son had his stolen and the cops came the next morning to say they found it , we didn't even know it was gone.

A pair of small scissors opens the door and fits into the ignition key and turns and starts. Even after this my son can still use his key!

Nissan have know about the lack of security on this model and have done nothing to rectify it. So much for the key transponder, scissors don't come with a passive coil thingo.


As for not starting the fuel pump under the rear seat failed on my sons and it caused the no start issue, another common problem

cheers,

Interesting......

My pulsar will turn over but not start unless the the key has the transponder chip and the key is coded to the car.

Out of curiosity I shielded the head of the key with a few layers of alfoil tonight to cover the chip and the car refused to start. Removed alfoil and all ok.

I guess there must be a way around the system, much like you can disable the immobiliser in a d2 using a nanocom.
