Tried to hold down both lock and unlock for a couple of seconds, also for 10sec, but nothing happens :?

Does it matter if the car is open or locked before you try this procedure?

I will check my instructionbook tonight to see if it says something, but I have my doubts..

Hi!

Well, I looked at the US version of the instructionbook, and I can see that we operate with different key fobs. In the US version, it says something about deactivating and activating the soundsignal when lock/unlock. We do not have this option in norway.

My keyfob is used as a automatic signalsender. On the fob it contain two buttons. Lock and unlock.
I rearly use these. In the keyfob there is a sender that gives the car a signal within 0.5 meters. On the doorhandle there is a button to lock / unlock the car. These buttons is on the driverdoor, the passanger front door and the rear hatch. There is also a selectiv lockingfunction that allows me to push the button on time to unlock the door, or two push to (the second push within 5 sec) to unlock all doors. This function can be deactivated. To lock all doors = 1 push. When locking there are one long signal from the turnlights, when unlock there are 2 fast blinks.

I also dont need to use any ignitionkey on my car, the LE Premium edition of the Norwegiansold Pathfinders have these functions standard. There is a builtin ignitionkey that activates when it gets signal from the keyfob.

I have asked Nissan Norway about the ability for a soundsignal, but they says that is not an option for the european model. So I guess there are some differences on where the cars are delivered.

US models do not have these functions?

This is an excellent piece of info! It's always bugged me that the Pathy didn't honk at me to tell me it's locked.
Just tested the FOB trick and it worked like a charm.

Another cool trick...if you hold the UNLOCK button down on the FOB (2-5 seconds) it will roll the front windows down for you.

I'm sure others already know this trick but I had the Pathy for nearly a year before I stumbled across this one day. :roll:
Very handy on a hot summer day while I'm walking across the parking lot after work.
