I lost the key to my car I am trying to figure out where the key code is located on my car? It is not in the glove box. Anyone know where else to look?
Re: I lost the key to my car I am trying to figure out...
It's not in the car. Sometime the dealer can look it up with the VIN number but that usually doesn't work. Usually you have to change the lock cylinders or remove them and have a locksmith make keys.

My best advice is pull the glove box cover open a small amount take a small flat head screw driver and try to reach in and release the latch good Luck let me know Mike L.
You trunk switch in the glove box may be turned off. It is located on the left hand side inside the glove box. Be sure that it is turned on and then attempt to pen the trunk. Don't give up after one try. I have a 2006 and it has taken a couple of cycles of the off/on switch and the electronic key to open it.If this does not work, you probably have damage and may have to take the vehicle to a shop and ask about having the trunk opened and either order the new parts for an electronic lock or have a keyed lock installed, once the trunk has been opened manually at the shop.
Two ways...Nissan puts the key code on a piece of white tape and sticks it on the inside of the glove box door. However, someone could have pulled it off at some point. Check there first. Secondly, the original owners paperwork should have the key code on it. If you are not the original owner, or do not have access to that person, but know the dealer where the car was originally sold, they would have the paperwork on file, they probably do not have a way to cross reference the serial #, so you would likely have to know the original owners name in order for them to look up the archived deal and get the number from the paperwork. The only other suggestion I might have is to get a locksmith to cut you a key. Good luck! I hope you find this to be very helpful! Check the glovebox!
most new BMW's the fuse block is located behind the glove box. There should be a pair of twist plastic fastners at the back of the glove box, twist and remove the plate and you should find the fuse box and fuse locater list.
Yes it is a coded key, the problem is without the resistance value of the original key (the little piece of resistive wire embedded in the key shaft) you will have re-program the system to the new key value. The keys will run about $20 US each and the programming about 1/2 hr or $50. Do yourself a favor get two keys done.
The fuse box is located in the glove box. When you open the glove box you will see a square black door that says "fuse". Pull door down and foward, fuses are all right there
While sitting in the drivers seat reach over and open the glove box... Look on the side of the box as it laid open and you should see a sticker with a code. Shhhh don't tell anyone...
