This
automotive maintenance tutorial was specifically written to assist
owners of the second generation (2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 &
2014) Nissan Murano SUV in changing a dead coin cell battery in the
smart or "intelligent" key fob remote control for the keyless entry
system. Owners of other Nissan or Infiniti vehicles such as the Versa, Maxima, Juke, Rogue, Altima, Xterra, Pathfinder, Sentra, Cube, Armada, Leaf, Quest, Frontier, Teana, 370Z, GT-R, Titan, G25, G37, M35, QX56, QX60 and M37 may also find these DIY instructions to be helpful. A replacement coin cell (A.K.A. "button" or "watch" battery) is part number CR2032 which is available from various manufacturers such as Sylvania, GE, Duracell, Energizer, Maxell, Panasonic and Sony. The only tool needed to replace the battery is a small flathead screwdriver used to pry apart the two halves of the fob. |

Slide the back up

If the new battery is working properly, you should see the parking lights flash and hear the door locks opening or closing. (Tip - To turn off the horn "honk" confirmation when locking your Murano, which might annoy your neighbors at night, press and hold both the "Lock" and "Unlock" buttons at the same time for a few seconds until you see the parking lights flash.)
