Bentley Continental GT Key Fob Troubleshooting

The key fob of the Bentley Continental GT displays power with the sensitivity and precision of an electric car. It's a proof of the buyer's desire for pure luxury, opulence and performance.

The Continental key fob comes with rubber seals in order to prevent water from damaging its electronic chip. Submerging the key fob into water can be damaging.

Battery

The most likely cause of the key fob that suddenly stopped working is the remote control battery is dead. It could also cease to function due to worn buttons, poor contacts inside the battery and receiver modules problems or water damage. In rare instances the microchip could be damaged and be the cause.

The key fob features metal clips that keep the battery in place and complete the circuit. If they are not present or loose, the battery can fall out of position and lose contact. Make sure the clip is securely in place and that all of the battery contacts are free of corrosion and clean.

When replacing the button cell battery, it is important to select the right voltage and size. Batteries of the wrong size or design can harm your Continental remote control. Always replace the battery with one of the same size and type.

If your key fob isn't working, try using the spare one. This will help you identify any problems with the buttons on the keyfob or battery, contacts, and internal chip. If the spare key fob functions and you have a problem, it could be an issue with the receiver module inside your Bentley Continental. It will need to be replaced or changed in programming.

Water Damage

A key fob with rubber seals should be able to withstand a splash of water or bathing in the washing machine. Submersion for long periods in clean tap water however, could cause damage to the electronic chip. Water is a very conductive medium that can create short circuits on the circuit board. Wet circuit boards are also susceptible to rust and corrosion.

Make sure you get as much water as you can after removing your key fob from the wash cycle, puddle, or the pool you dropped it in. Flip the fob's button upside down and let it run off for a couple of minutes. Then, squeeze out any remaining moisture with a cloth or soft towel. A cotton swab, dipped into isopropyl alcohol can be used to clean the key fob's case and circuit board. Allow it to dry completely.

Fault Diagnosis

The key fob on the Bentley Continental GT may stop functioning for a variety of reasons. One of them is an unrepaired or damaged battery or water damage, signal interference, receiver module issues and a key that is not paired that needs reprogramming. To resolve the issue you should disconnect the 12 voltage battery from your vehicle for a couple of minutes to reset all of the on-board computers.

You can use diagnostic tools to check for any issues. The tool will ask you to enter the make, model, and engine type to provide the most precise results. If you don't know the exact details of your vehicle, you can enter the VIN. This will allow the diagnostic tool look for a specific code which will help you locate the issue quicker.

A damaged internal chip could be the reason for your key fob. This could happen if you drop the key on the floor, which may have damaged the chip inside. It can also happen if you leave the headlights or interior lights on for too long. The corrosion on the battery's terminals can cause an electric current to be obstructed and cause alarms to continue going off.

Make sure to push the tabs back into position when replacing the battery. You can also clean the electronic chip by using a paper towel soaked in isopropyl ethanol if needed.

Water damage is more frequent on the Bentley Continental GT than in other models of vehicles however it isn't impossible to repair. Submerging the chip in the ocean or in a soapy rain might not cause damage but it is more likely to happen if you submerge it. If your key fob was exposed to excessive water, you should remove the battery and allow it to dry completely before attempting to reinstall it.
