How do you program a replacement remote for a 99 Nissan Sentra?

Answer 1

1.Make sure you have all the remotes you will use for the car. Once you enter program mode you will erase all existing remotes. 2.With your key in your right hand close and lock all the doors using the driver's power lock switch. 3.Within 10 seconds put the key in and out of the ignition 7 or more times. This can be a little tricky. Make sure the key comes all the way out of the lock and try using a rythmic pattern. Once you see the turn signal indicators flash twice turn the ignition to ACCESSORY. You're now in the program mode. 4. Press any button on the 1st remote. The turn signal indicators will flash indicating the remote signal has been accepted. 5. Unlock and lock the door locks using the driver's door and press any button on the second remote. Repete this step for up to 5 remotes. 6. Take the key and open the door. Your remotes should work.

This does work but takes patience since the process must be followed exactly. If you can't seem to get it done go to your local Nissan Dealer. Any decent service advisor should be able to do this for free. If they won't find another dealer!
