How To Replace Nissan 2007 Maxima Intelligent Key Battery

[shotcaller6c]

Intelligent Key experience for 2007 Maxima Story!I just went through a harrowing experience when the ‘Green Light’ started flashing in my 2007 Maxima. Of Course I Panicked! At first I did the noble thing and called the dealer; who stated that I had to purchase a $25 battery and that it would take another $125 to program it (That’s $150…WOW)...After hearing this disturbing information I searched the internet an d came upon (FA) this site; where I received some hope. IN following the guidance from members at FA; I went out to the nearest AutoZone; purchased ($4.30) a pair of CR2025 batteries (Duracell); and the attendant assisted me with placing the battery in the remote. I walked away from this one only spending $4.30. Wow! I believe I saved $121.50! Nissan Service Dealers must get better with scarring consumers or past clients who purchased their cars. I hope this is helpful and if your battery dies; don't fret; buy the battery, and screwdriver (small flathead); If you do not have manual use this: INTELLIGENT KEY BATTERYReplace the battery in the Intelligent Key as follows:1. Remove the mechanical key from the Intelligent Key.2. Insert a small screwdriver (A) into the slits (B) of the corner and twist it to separate the upper part from the lower part.3. Replace the battery with a new one. (Recommended battery: CR2025 or equivalent.)• Do not touch the internal circuit and electric terminals as doing so could cause a malfunction.• Hold the battery by the edges. Holding the battery across the contact points will seriously deplete the storage capacity.• Make sure that the + side faces the bottom of the case.• And that’s basically IT! That Simple; No weird science, key programming or dealers rip off! I Hope this was helpful and will save some great consumer a lot of money in these economic hard times! Peace!
