Nissan Qashqai / X-Trail / Rogue Smart Key - BCM's That Are Dangerous

**nazz2** · 2nd May, 2020, 10:03 PM

Fiy, i had a Nissan Serena 2014 prox today for spare key, told the owner about the danger we agreed to clone his key . used key tool, but sniffing on the push button was only started when we removed his working key from the cab.but at least he has a key which can start the car.

Next time take battery out, before you start cloning.

I use Truecode from Keyprogrammers for Nissan and it tells me when it is risky. Is there any way to know which cars that is bad before I meet my client and connect my software?

So, still no solution. Wow. Had some customers asking to make a spare for 2014-2017 Rogue. After explaining situation and offering them to sign waiver they went away (of course).
Can anyone confirm that this problem affects North American cars as well? Or maybe it's just European nightmare?

No matter region. All affected

Which key programmers (or other tools) are able to pull part number of BCM so it can be at least compared with known "bad" numbers?

**rapidlocksmiths** · 22nd May, 2020, 11:18 AM

truecode , smart pro , abrites , im608 , zedfull and i suspect many more

Any normal diagnostic scanner read this data

Part number of bcm. Think logicaly . Who can tell you all dangerous pn if nobody knows them all. All tools who give info about part number is totaly same as you can find google or forums from who had bad experience and wrote them.

Definitely in North America. I had someone call me out about an hour away to make a key for a 2016 Rogue. I had never encountered the faulty BCM, and I figured since the one I was working on was a different part number than the ones warned by my programmer, it would work fine. This was my first encounter with these. I feel bad, the customer has no way to afford to tow it to the dealer, and the dealer quoted a price already for the key that they can't afford either. I was hoping for a solution besides replacing the modules, but so far have found nothing.

On that note, are there any Nissan tech bulletins about this? I saw some in reference to losing all keys while in transport mode, but it seems to cover a different issue.
