Fiat Panda key fobs contain an transponder chip that transmits an alert to your car to open the doors or start the engine. The fob could stop working for a variety of reasons.

A dead battery for the coin is the most common cause of a key fob malfunction. Other causes include water damage, an inoperative receiver module, and signal interference.

Dead Coin Battery

Replace the battery if the key fob is dead. Use a new button cell battery with the same size, voltage, and specification as the previous one.

If the key fob has been exposed to water, for example a splash of rain or salt water on the beach, it needs to be cleaned before it can be used again. The trick is to use a paper towel soaked with isopropyl or an electronic cleaner.

If the key fob doesn't working despite not being exposed to water it could be due a malfunction in the receiver module or an internal electronic chip. In these instances, reprogramming the key fob with an OBDII scanner may assist.

Water Damage

If your key fob has taken submerged in a pool or puddle or gone through the washing machine, you might have some water damage. It is usually possible to fix it by getting rid of the batteries and cleaning the circuit board using rubbing alcohol. It's best to let the fob dry completely prior to installing a new battery.

If your key fob has stopped working, even after replacing the battery and reconfiguring it, you may have a defective receiver module. You can find reprogramming instructions for the majority of vehicles' remote key for fiat 500 fobs on YouTube or in the owner's guide. You can also reset your computer in your car with the OBDII scanner tool.

Faulty Receiver Module

The key fob's chip is a chip that communicates with the vehicle's system. This chip will stop sending and receiving signals to the car when it is damaged. This could be due to dropping the key fob or due to exposure to water. If the key fob is not working after water exposure it could be possible to repair it by cleaning the chip using isopropyl alcohol, or electronic cleaner.

If the key fob doesn't respond to cleaning, it's possible that the module has an issue and must be replaced. A faulty receiver module can also cause the remote control key to stop working. This is typically caused by electromagnetic interference.

Faulty Electronic Chip

The electronic chip in your key fob plays an important function in the anti-theft security system in your car. It transmits a message the immobiliser in your car that tells it whether the key is genuine. The car won't start if the chip is damaged.

A faulty chip can also be caused by interference signals from other objects such as weather conditions, objects or transmitters operating on the same frequency as your vehicle. In this instance, you will need a new key fob.

Faulty battery contacts

The battery contacts of a key fob can be damaged due to heavy use. If they're bent or broken, the fob won't send any signals to receiver modules inside the vehicle.

Modern fobs come with rubber seals in order to keep out water. A splash of water or a light rain should be fine, but submerging them in saltwater may cause damage to the chip's electronic components.

The key fob comes with an electronic chip that communicates with the immobilizer system of the vehicle to start it. The system utilizes the old red keys that were used in older vehicles, or the cryptocoding system that is used in newer cars. This chip will need to be replaced if it's malfunctioning.

The 12 Volt Battery is faulty

A faulty battery can cause the remote to stop working. The car's system will not recognize the remote when this happens.

Test the battery using the voltmeter before replacing it to determine its capacity. A fully charged battery should display 12.6 volts. If the reading drops significantly, it's time to replace it.

To test the battery's power test the battery's capacity by placing an electrical load on it for a few minutes. This will remove approximately 1 percent of the charge on the surface. Then, test the voltage once more. The better the battery's capacity and the longer it can keep its voltage. Ideal is to hold close to 12 volts for several minutes.

Problems with Radio Signal

This is the main reason for a keyfob that ceases to send signals to the car. The battery can be replaced to solve this issue. It is however important to choose a battery that is the same voltage and size as the original one.

Fobs take a lot of abuse, and they aren't indestructible. Contacts on batteries and buttons can be damaged through rough handling.

The signal could also be impacted by other transmitters or objects that operate on the same frequency. For example, a light-control panel close to your home can transmit interference using the same frequency that key fobs utilize. This could cause interference with the remote control of your car.

Incorrect OBDII scan tool

There are many reasons why a scan tool may not work. Some are more complex than others.

Professional scan tools enable mechanics to observe the car's network and perform various self-tests. These tools can save you a lot of time, but they're expensive and are out of reach for the majority of DIYers.

If your OBD2 scan tool isn't turning on, test the voltage at the terminals 16 (scantool power) and 4 (chassis earth). If they're all fine there is a chance that a fuse has blown. This is the most typical reason for a scan tool to fail. It is often easy to fix the problem by replacing the fuse that has blown.
