1997 Nissan Altima MECHANICAL-KEY Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
Got a call from a woman over in Hope Ranch community in Santa Barbara. She had a 1997 Nissan Altima sitting in her driveway and only one key left. Her husband had the other one when he passed, and somewhere in the shuffle it disappeared. She wanted a spare before she was down to zero.
She told me she had already called the Nissan dealer. They told her to bring the car in, quoted her a wait time, and mentioned something about programming. That threw her off because she did not know what kind of key system her car even had.
Here is the thing: the 1997 Altima has no transponder, no chip, no immobilizer. It is a mechanical key, straight up. Nissan did not roll NATS into the Altima until the next generation in 1998. Her car just needs a correctly cut metal key and that is it.
I pulled the key code from the door lock, cut a fresh DA31 blank on my mobile machine, and tested it in the ignition and both doors. Smooth turn, no drama. Cut a second spare while I was there so she would never be in a one-key situation again.
She kept saying she thought there was a computer involved. There is not. Not on this one. Two keys cut and tested in about fifteen minutes, right in her driveway, for a fraction of what the dealer wanted just to look at it.
