Lost your 2005 Nissan Altima Key Fob or need to program a replacement? Don’t worry, programming your key fob for your 2005 Nissan Altima can be done easily at home with a few simple steps. This guide will walk you through the process to get your keyless entry working again in no time.
Here’s how to program your 2005 Nissan Altima key fob:
-
Start by ensuring all doors are closed and locked. Use the power lock/unlock switch located on the driver’s side door panel to lock all doors.
-
Insert and remove the key from the ignition rapidly. Insert your Nissan Altima key into the ignition and pull it out completely. Repeat this insert and remove action at least six times within a 10-second timeframe. If done correctly, your hazard lights should flash, indicating the system has entered programming mode. Note: Make sure to fully remove the key from the ignition cylinder each time. Performing this step too quickly may prevent the system from entering programming mode.
-
Turn the key to the ACC position. Insert the key back into the ignition and turn it to the ACC (Accessory) position.
-
Press any button on the key fob. Within 5 seconds of turning the key to ACC, press any button on your 2005 Nissan Altima key fob remote. Your hazard lamps should flash once to confirm successful programming of that remote. Important: Press the button on the remote only once. Multiple presses may disrupt the programming process.
-
Program additional remotes (if needed). If you have more remotes to program, including existing ones, unlock and then lock all doors using the power lock/unlock switch on the driver’s door panel. Within 5 seconds, press any button on the next remote. The hazard lamps will flash to confirm programming. Repeat this step for every key fob you need to program.
-
Finish the programming sequence. Turn the key to the OFF position and remove it from the ignition. Unlock the driver’s door using the switch on the door panel and open the driver’s door.
-
Test your remotes. Test each programmed key fob to ensure they are working correctly by locking and unlocking your Nissan Altima remotely.
