Are you looking to program a new key fob for your 2007 Nissan Murano? Losing or damaging your key fob can be a hassle, but fortunately, programming a new one for your Nissan Murano can often be done right at home, saving you a trip to the dealership. This guide provides you with easy-to-follow instructions to program your 2007 Nissan Murano key fob yourself.
Before you begin, it’s important to note that if your 2007 Nissan Murano uses a silver “smart key,” the programming process is different and typically requires professional assistance from a dealer or locksmith. The following instructions are for standard keyless entry programming, which applies to most 2007 Nissan Murano models.
Here’s how to program your standard 2007 Nissan Murano key fob:
-
Start Inside and Lock Up: Get into your Nissan Murano and ensure all doors are completely closed. Use the power lock switch located on the driver’s side door to LOCK all doors. Do not use your existing remote or a new remote for this step.
-
Ignition Key Cycling: Take your ignition key and insert it into the ignition switch. Quickly remove the key from the ignition a total of 6 times within a 10-second timeframe. Make sure you fully insert and remove the key each time, maintaining a pace of roughly one second per insertion and removal cycle. If you perform this step correctly, your Murano’s hazard lights should flash. If the hazard lights do not flash after 6 attempts, try repeating the procedure 10 times instead.
-
Enter ACC Mode: Insert the key back into the ignition switch and turn it to the ACC (Accessory) position. This is usually the first click or turn of the key.
-
Program the First Remote: Within 5 seconds of turning the key to the ACC position, take your new key fob remote and press the LOCK button one time. If the programming is successful for this remote, your Nissan Murano’s hazard lamps will flash. This flash confirms that the vehicle has recognized and programmed the remote.
-
Program Additional Remotes (Optional): If you have more remotes to program, including existing working remotes and any other new remotes, you need to follow this step. If you only have one remote to program, you can skip to step 6. Use the power lock switch on the driver’s side door to first UNLOCK and then immediately LOCK the doors again. Do not use any remote for this step. Within 5 seconds after locking the doors, take the next remote you want to program and press the LOCK button on that remote once. Again, your hazard lamps should flash to confirm successful programming of this additional remote. Repeat this same process for every remaining remote you need to program.
-
Final Steps & Testing: Once you have programmed all of your desired key fobs, turn the ignition switch to the OFF position and completely remove the key from the ignition. Finally, use the power lock switch on the driver’s side door to UNLOCK all the doors. Do not use a remote for this step. Now, test each of your programmed remotes to ensure they are all working correctly by pressing the lock and unlock buttons and verifying the vehicle responds appropriately.
If you encounter any difficulties while programming your 2007 Nissan Murano key fob, or if you prefer to have a professional handle the programming for you, consider seeking assistance from a local car key programming service. You can often find professional installers in your area who can quickly and efficiently program your key fob.
