Nissan Xterra Key Replacement
Nissan Xterras have been on Dallas–Fort Worth roads since the 2005 era, and across 2 key generations this model has used 2 different key systems — remote-head transponder key (early: separate remote); cwtwb1u415 (early, separate remote) → cwtwb1u751 (remote-head). Whichever yours is, DFW Keys 4 Cars cuts and programs it at your location, 24/7: spare keys, lost-everything replacements, fob programming, and lockouts. Call (214) 717-6398.
About Xterra Keys
The table below is our verified key reference for the Nissan Xterra — model years, key types, and the transponder/immobilizer family each generation uses. Generations overlap at boundary years, so we always confirm the exact part by VIN before dispatching.
| Model / Generation | Years | Key Type | Transponder / Immobilizer | Blade / FCC |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Xterra | 2005–2015 | Remote-head transponder key (early: separate remote) | Philips Crypto 2 / ID46 / Hitag 2 / PCF7936 | NSN14 |
| Xterra | 2005–2015 | CWTWB1U415 (early, separate remote) → CWTWB1U751 (remote-head) | 315 MHz | — |
Security System & Immobilizer
Nissan’s NATS immobilizer dates to the late 1990s, evolving from early transponders through ID46 chips to the Intelligent Key proximity system that made push-button start mainstream.
On the Xterra specifically, the immobilizer families we see are: Philips Crypto 2 / ID46 / Hitag 2 / PCF7936, 315 MHz. A key that is cut correctly but not programmed to this system will turn the locks and never start the engine — programming is the half of the job that matters.

Nissan Xterra Key FAQ
I lost the only key to my Xterra. What now?
We come to the vehicle, verify ownership, cut a new key from the VIN, and program it on-site. No tow, no dealer wait — this is our most common Xterra call.
Will a hardware-store copy start my Xterra?
It will open the doors and nothing else on transponder-era cars — the chip inside the key must be programmed to the immobilizer, which is the part we do curbside.
