2002 Nissan Pathfinder Transponder Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
Over in the Oxnard Auto Center, a delivery driver flagged me down through a referral. His 2002 Pathfinder was sitting in a lot with a snapped key blade stuck in the ignition. The break was clean, right at the bow, so half the blade was jammed deep in the DAT17 keyway.
He had already called another locksmith. That guy told him the ignition cylinder would need to be drilled out and replaced. New cylinder, new keys, whole new assembly. The quote kept climbing.
I used a DAT17 Lishi tool to extract the broken fragment without touching the wafer surfaces. Took a few minutes of careful tension and wiggle. Once the piece came out clean, I decoded the lock by reading each wafer position for the exact cut depths. Ten cuts, NSN14 key blank, 4D60 chip in the head.
Cut the new blade from the decode, then programmed the transponder through the OBD port using the NATS5 pin code procedure. The BCM on these R50 Pathfinders responds on the CONSULT-II protocol, so the handshake is quick once you have the code pulled.
No drilling. No cylinder swap. No ignition assembly replacement. His original lock works with the new key exactly like it did the day he bought the truck. He sat in the driver seat, turned it over twice, and just nodded. That was it.
Saved him a good chunk over what the other guy quoted.

“Locked out on a weekend night and everyone else wanted $300+. EZ Car Keyz sent Roman late at night for much less. He worked for over an hour and did not give up until the door opened. They even made a new key on the spot.”
“I had two Subaru key fobs made and Marco provided excellent service. He stayed persistent through multiple part orders to make sure everything was correct. Very thorough, punctual, and great communication throughout.”
“Tim went above and beyond. I struggled all day trying to program a new FOB and nothing worked. Tim helped me patiently, even recommending cheaper options since I was on a tight budget. He eventually came all the way to Ojai late at night and fixed everything.”
