After falling in the water with my keys in my pocket I rinsed them in metho and allow to dry which kind of worked - I can now unlock with the remote but can no longer lock. Put a new battery in it just incase but still no joy. I'm assuming the little switch on the circuit board is buggered and it seemed to me to be a fairly easy circuit to test but none of the electronic shops I've talked to are interested in having a look at it. I spoke to Nissan and they tell me the key is no longer available (anyone with FAST able to check?) Sooo my next move was going to be buy a second hand key from Japan and remove the circuit board from it and then install into my key and then somehow synch the new electronics in my key to my car. What do you guys reckon? Doable?

Yes, definitely doable. I added another key remote and went through the motions to mate it both with with our older '97 Stagea and our current 2006 M35. Search the M35 section for the posting on how to do this as the process is the same for both the older and newer Stageas.

Just one small thing to note. Although the pairing process (as per my pdf) is the same for both original and M35 Stageas, the remotes themselves are different (and look very different). Be sure to get one of the same type.

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
