Read Nissan 28-Digit Pin Code for AKL with Autel IM508 APB131

 When trying to program Nissan Sentra 2021 all smart keys lost using Autel IM608, it asks for a 28-digit pin code. Hooked up the Nissan BCM40 gateway connector, no luck, it stills ask for pin code.

Here is the clue. The Lonsdor/OBDSTAR BCM40 cable is not compatible with Autel IM508/IM608.

This car can obtain the 28-digit PIN code from the dump from the hands-free module above the glove compartment.

You will need to purchase the Autel APB131 it’s a special adapter for the MQB and the hands-free module for Nissan.
The hands free module in the Sentra/Rogue requires the removal of the dashboard.  Remove some resistors and soldiers some wires and you can read the data loaded and the code the pin then you can go to key learning and enter the 28-digit PIN code from hot functions not through the immobilizer menu.

APB131 will read pin from dump for following Nissan models:

Sylphy/Sentra(B18) 2022-, X-TRAIL/Rogue(T33) 2021-, QASHQAI(J12) 2024- , Juke(F16) 2012-, Note e-POWER(HE13) 2020-, Sylphy(B18) 2019-2021, Juke(F16) 2019-2021, Pathfinder(R53) 2022-2023

 

Here is an example of getting the pin code for a 2024 Nissan Rogue using IM508 XP400 and APB131.  The HFM is much easier to remove in the Rogue. The Sentra is much more difficult to remove the HFM.
