Key fobs in the modern world have more to offer than unlock and start the vehicle. They also control the windows and sunroof. And as such, they are costly to replace if they break or are damaged.

It's possible to replace your fob battery by yourself and save money. Here's how: Locate an opening on the key fob and then insert your tool.

Battery

Modern key fobs are convenient and functional, but they require some maintenance to ensure their operation. As time passes the battery in your fob's battery will deteriorate and you'll need to replace it. If your car is difficult to start or the buttons stop working, you'll know it's time to replace the battery.

Change the battery inside your key fob is fairly easy. Place the key fob flat on the surface and press the metal buttons until they pop out. Use a flat-blade screwdriver, or your fingernail to gently break out the two halves.

Then lift the clips that hold the battery in place and then remove it. If your key fob has a slot for the battery, simply replace it with a new one, making sure you insert it correctly in the plus and minus orientation.

You will need a CR2032 3V coin-cell battery to be found in a majority of stores that sell batteries or on the internet. The battery is usually tiny disc that is adorned with the symbol of a plus or minus on it. When handling the battery, be careful because it may leak when your hands are dirty. Leaks can cause damage to the circuit board, making it less likely to work properly in the future.

Programming

The car key fob of today does more than just unlock and begin the car, it's also a remote control for various systems. It can be used to adjust your seat and mirror adjustments as well as setting your radio and climate control preferences as well as a host of others adapted to the demands of the driver. Unfortunately these smart key fobs are also prone to be damaged by many causes. Sometimes replacing the battery can fix the problem, but sometimes reprogramming your key fob is required.

Reprogramming a key fob doesn't require a lot of effort, and it can be done at the convenience at home or at work. The first step is to lock your vehicle and ensure that your keys are in it. Press and hold the "Unlock", "Lock" and "Unlock" buttons on your key fob at the same time until you hear the chime, or the locks cycle. This will reset the connection between your key fob and vehicle.

Then, remove the backup ignition key in metal from the fob and place it aside in a secure place. The back cover should be pushed towards the middle of your fob to raise it slightly before removing it. Replace the fob's key by using an CR2032 battery which can be purchased at our Golden Valley parts section or at local hardware stores as well as supermarkets in Minnetonka and St Louis Park.

Keyless Entry

Modern key fobs provide many benefits, from convenience to security. The fob can be used to unlock the doors and trunk of your vehicle by pressing a button which sends radio frequency signals to the vehicle's receiver. This system has advantages and disadvantages, however.

For instance, a few thieves have created devices that can intercept the signals sent from your key and then replicate them to use as a "key" to open and start your car. You can help protect yourself by putting your key fob inside a shielded protection case (known as Faraday pouches) which limits the distance that frequencies from the fob can travel. You can find these pouches in most auto parts stores for less than PS10.

Certain systems also allow you to unlock your car without pressing the button. The car will lock or unlock automatically when you reach the door's handle, so that your key is within the fob and in range of the car's sensor.

Key fobs can also help business owners and managers to be more in control. They can authorize specific employees to gain access to certain areas within your building or facility during specific shift times. You can even revoke access for a missing or fired employee with a click of a button. This tool is particularly helpful for warehouses and other structures which require higher levels of security.

Summoning

Key fobs with modern technology often have hidden functions that can make the car owner's life significantly easier. A CR auto editor, for example went to the Honda Accord he was driving and found that all the windows were rolled down automatically when the owner was at home. This is certainly not a good thing, especially during a rainstorm or if the vehicle was covered in snow.

The Model 3's key fob is equipped with numerous other interesting options, including the capability to summon and auto-park the vehicle at the touch of the button. Another cool feature is the panic button which drivers can press in a scary scenario, for instance, when a burglar is in the home. A Tesla spokesperson says that this could scare away the criminal and alert neighbors.

Replace the old battery in your key fob with an CR 2032 replacement (available from local hardware stores and big-box retailers). Install the key fob's bottom cover and firmly press it until you hear a snap. Once the fob has been activated and you are able to test its functions by unlocking and locking your vehicle.

Having a duplicate key fob is also useful because you can give it to a friend or family member so they can use the car using their own Driver Profile which shows the settings they prefer. This means that you don't need to worry about a partner or sibling accidentally changing the mirror position, climate control settings, or seat positions that you prefer.
