Nissan remote programmingThis is very simple and works for most Nissan models

3) Hazard lights should flash

4) put key back into ignition and turn to accesory

5)Press the master door lock( on th edrivers doo arm rest) unlock/lock

6) hit the lock button on the remote

7) Hazards should flash

7a) if yo have a second remote repeat step 5, 6 and 7 at this point for the second remote

8) pull the key out of the ignition and open and close the drivers door ( if you do not open the door and close it fully the process won't work)

9)the remote/'s should be set

Once the remote is set: Xterra has 2 un/lock modes: Silent & Noise.

Silent- when locking-- no horn will beep but lights will flash.

when unlocking - no horn , no lights

Noise- when locking - Horn beeps and lights flash

when unlocking - lights flash ( no horn)

To change from one mode to the other simply stand near the driverside front light. Press and hold both unlock and lock buttons for 5 seconds on remote. Horn will sound and lights flash. Your done
