What Is This Thing On My Keyring?

[WazR32GTSt]

--> see attached pictures

my car came with 2 of these, i attached one to my keyring

not sure what it does, i suspect it has something to do with NATS (nissan anti theft system) but i am not sure what?

anyone with any ideas?

cheers,

Warren

PS.. how awesome is this new V35 section!!

its part of the dealer fitted security system. when active it drops the ign circuits. there's one of these on a M35 I have to do (and remove..) shortly.

[WazR32GTSt]

interesting.. thanks mate

so how do i use it?

and what does the dealer-fitted system do?

Correct me if i'm wrong:

If you remove that item from your keyring and leave it somewhere or loose it, your car wont start.

[WazR32GTSt]

no, that's a separate dongle thing you're thinking of, Al

i have that also - its a proximity sensor that needs to be within a foot or so of the ignition barrel when the key is inserted otherwise it won't start..

on the M35 it stops the car sounds a siren and thats about it.

there should be a spot on the drivers dash the thing will push into.

So Warren, did you work on out to use the keyring thing, or if it does anything?

Yeh, I got two of those too. There is a socket for them under the dash but it does nothing.

I'd be interested to know what they are and if worth re enabling.

[wabbo69]

I'm just trying to get mine fixed up now.....and it seems hard to do.

If I can't ..... I'll buy another as they must be the best ride available. Seriously the best.

its the OE dealer fitted alarm proximity sensor. touch the spot on the dash and it arms. for get about it and the siren inside the car goes off.

should have been pulled anyway (see alarm post.).

[cookie--monster]

must have been pulled it compliance.mine have been inside my unit for the last month now,so they do jack on my car.

mine came with two,but interestingly there is NO place on the dash,or under etc to 'push them into'.....
