Nissan 370 key types & programming facts
The 2014 Nissan 370Z uses a smart proximity key fob that works with the vehicle’s push-button start and keyless entry system. Programming replacement keys is performed via the vehicle’s OBD-based immobilizer/keyless system and typically requires specialized diagnostic equipment used by dealers or automotive locksmiths, along with registration of the new fob to the car’s security system. In most cases, at least one working key or access to proper locksmith/dealer tools is needed to add or program new keys.
Key types used on the 370:
- smart/proximity push-to-start (3‑button intelligent key fob with internal emergency blade) (2009-2014 (and later) for 370Z models equipped with push-button start, including 2014 USA/Canada)
About programming your Nissan 370 key
Across the 2014 Nissan 370 model years we cover, key programming is manufacturer-controlled: every year listed above routes to a programmer or security-access procedure rather than an owner-followable onboard sequence. That is normal for this platform — the immobilizer pairs the key’s transponder to the vehicle through an encrypted handshake, so a blank or aftermarket fob will not start the engine until it is properly programmed.
What that means for you: you do not need the dealership. A mobile locksmith brings the programmer to your location, identifies your exact key type and FCC ID from the fob, cuts or sources the correct key if needed, and programs it on site — including all-keys-lost cases where no working key remains.
To program your 370, have ready: your model year and trim, whether you still have a working key, and the fob itself if you have one (the FCC ID printed on the back identifies the exact key variant). Call (833) 439-8636 and we confirm the route and a firm price before we dispatch.

How we validate this guide
Year coverage comes from our consolidated vehicle programming dataset. Route-level programming status is reviewed against internal route sheets and available manufacturer, security-access, and professional tool references. Exact button sequences are marked source-verified only when we have year/equipment-specific support; where a year is labeled “route verified, steps vary,” we confirm the exact fob, trim, and prompts before programming. Reviewed for route and safety by Mohammad H. Abdelhadi, ALOA-Certified Master Locksmith.

Common questions
What type of key does a 2014 Nissan 370Z use?
It uses a smart proximity key (intelligent key) fob with three buttons and an internal emergency metal key blade for door entry.
Can I program a 2014 370Z key fob myself?
Programming generally requires professional OBD-based equipment and procedures, so it is usually done by a dealer or qualified automotive locksmith rather than at home.
Does a 2014 Nissan 370Z smart key include a physical key?
Yes. The factory smart key fob includes a removable internal metal key blade used for mechanical door locking and unlocking if the fob battery is dead.
Can you program a 370 key fob without going to the dealership?
For most years, yes - the route is onboard relearn or an OBD tool, both of which a mobile locksmith handles at your location.
Does this program the remote only, or the transponder key too?
It depends on your key type. Tell us your FCC ID and we will confirm.
What if my year says professional programming required?
Those years need a programmer or security access; we bring the tool to you and program it on site.
How much does it cost?
It depends on year, key type, and whether you have a working key. Call (833) 439-8636 for a firm price before we dispatch.
