2012 Nissan Leaf Smart Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
Lock decoding means I read your car's lock to create a key without drilling anything, without breaking anything, and without replacing the cylinder. The car looks exactly the same when I leave.
A long-haul delivery driver pulled over at a truck stop outside Chula Vista had his key snap inside the ignition of his 2012 Nissan Leaf. The blade broke clean in half. He called another locksmith first, and that locksmith said the ignition cylinder would need to be drilled and replaced. New keys, new cylinder, pushing $500. He called me for a second opinion.
I used my DAT17 Lishi to extract the broken blade fragment from the ignition without scratching the wafer surfaces. Once extracted, I decoded the lock by reading each wafer position for exact cut depths. His car used a separate remote fob, FCC ID CWTWB1U808, and a standalone transponder key. I cut the new blade from the decode and programmed the transponder through OBD.
No drilling, no cylinder replacement, no new ignition assembly. His total was $247. The other locksmith's plan would have run $427 or more. His original lock works with the new key exactly like it did with the old one.

“Niv showed up, did his thing, and just like that I had two new keys for a fraction of what the dealership quoted. I have zero reservations recommending him to anyone who needs car keys replaced.”
“We had one broken key for our Honda Civic and one working key for our Lexus. Tim came out and cut three remote car keys at a great price. All keys worked perfectly. Professional, courteous, and highly recommended.”
“Tim was GREAT. I honestly swear he must have had my keys made before he even showed up. The entire process was insanely fast, from the initial phone call to having the keys in my hand. No one will beat the pricing, efficiency, or outstanding service.”
