I didn't know that proximity keys can be cloned? A couple of local locksmiths that I contacted knew about the bricking issues caused by affected BCM's and said that there was currently no way of cloning proximity keys?

If proximity keys can be cloned then what cloning tools can be used to clone proximity keys?

Wouldn't cloning be the obvious 'work around' for these cars instead of trying to code new keys with the know risks & issues?

Can anyone in the Royston / Cambridge England area clone a new key for my 2015 Nissan Pulsar 1.5 dCi which unfortunately has one of the know BCM modules that has issues?

It's ID46. Technology to clone this transponder has been around for many years. Just clone the transponder part and cut an emergency blade or go the hard way.

You cant clone hitag AES 4A

**autoTkey** · 2nd December, 2020, 03:19 PM

Of course. But I talk about ID46.

Pulsar proximity has id46?

**godfathertre** · 2nd December, 2020, 08:06 PM

So why not clone it.

I believe it has 4A. But I was talking about the Serena from the quoted text.

Had 284B5-4CB0A spare today and walked away not worth risk
284B5-4CB0C is on the list. Little too close for my liking

Successfully did a model 6-months ago with the 1st 4 digit match but this was AKL - Little different when car is already running!

I would not touch these vehicles if the customer even paid me £1000 pound for 1 additional key if vehicles messed up goes to dealer you have provably a £2000 pound bill you must be crazy to touch them not worth the risk.
