Keyless entry?
I have an 01 base? model max and I was wondering if they all have keyless capability from the factory? I got my car used and I did not get a keypad with it, but I was wondering if I could just buy a remote and program it and it would work? thanks

Actually all you have to do is make sure your car is setup with keyless (which I'm sure it is) and go on ebay and find a remote and program it yourself. i bought one off there just recently for $15 shipped and programmed it myself. Its really easy. DON'T take it to the dealer cause they will charge you like $40 to do something you can do in like less than a minute. One place that has instructions is www.programyourremote.com

could this trick work to just say refresh the key fob, cause i've replaced the batteries on all three of mine but sometimes they refuse to work and then sometimes they will work from the forth floor in the building i work at which is about 2 football fields away

A lot of times people will loose them between their house and the dealer... I only got one (flaky) remote with mine. But I bought another off Ebay and it works like a charm!

I bought a replacement remote off Ebay for my 2k SE because my original remote stopped working. The original remote would lock the doors and open the trunk, but wouldn't unlock the doors. The new remote I received suffers the exact same problem. I programmed it correctly, but it also will not unlock the doors but does lock them and do the trunk. Any ideas?

was the replacement a new or used remote?
do the doors unlock with the switch from the inside?

ill be damned if i were gonna pay the dealership 80 bucks for a remote with programming. I purchased the remote from Ebay from one of the Nissan OEM vendors (Calsonic Kansei Corp) and i searched the net and found the instructions.... I got the remote from Ebay for 16 bucks shipped. However my remote is modeled after the 2k4 remotes
my new one looks like this........

u can also use rubbing alcohol on the circuit board, if its pretty dirty....Alcohol has no operating effect on circuit boards. U can soak an entire processor in Alcohol, let it air dry for an hour, and ITLL BE GOOD AS NEW.

yup, i programmed it myself...and it definately works
, GO AHEAD AND GIVE IT A SHOT BRO! I got it from EBAY......youve got a 2000, so check the FCC ID on the back of your remote, and try to look for a manufacturer from one of the OEM vendors for the NISSAN REMOTES.....But your right, the regular 5th gen remotes are UGLY
