The Nissan Steering Lock Warning

On some Nissan models, including earlier versions of the Qashqai and Micra, the steering is locked electronically. When that lock fails, the car may show a steering or key warning and refuse to start, even with the correct key. It's often mistaken for a key fault, so the lock and the key are tested separately at the car.

A failed lock is repaired or replaced on site, as explained on our Ignition Repair page. If testing points to the key instead, Nissan key programming or a new key puts it right, and we'll tell you which before any work begins.

What Is A Nissan Intelligent Key?

Nissan calls its keyless system the Intelligent Key. It stays in a pocket while the car unlocks and starts at the push of a button, and like most smart keys it hides a mechanical blade for emergencies. Older Nissans use a remote key with a flip or fixed blade instead.

Both types are programmed at the vehicle, and a Nissan spare key is quickest while one key still works, and the car's security code is retrieved as part of the process, so you don't need to find it. The spare is registered as a separate key, with every function tested before we leave. See Spare Car Keys.

If you bought your Nissan with a single key, booking a Nissan spare key now avoids a much bigger job if that one goes missing.

Lost Your Nissan Key?

Nissan key replacement with no working key left is done at the car. A new key is coded, the blade cut to the locks, and the missing key removed from the car's memory where the system allows. If you've lost a Nissan key on a walk or at the coast, the car doesn't need to move: give us the car park name and we'll come to you. See Lost Car Keys.
