Battery

Changing the battery in your key fob is one of the most straightforward solutions. The fob has a tiny coin-shaped 3V battery (CR2032 or CR2025) which is typically easily found in general stores, home improvement shops, as well as some auto parts stores. Make sure you get a new battery -Old batteries are generally not useful anymore and could damage the circuit board.

Begin by opening the fob. It may be tight, but with the help of a flat screwdriver you will be able to break the halves. Then, you can insert the screwdriver into the seam on all sides of the fob and raise a couple clips holding it in place. These are easily broken therefore, take your time and work slowly.

Reassemble the fob after replacing the battery, and test to see if it is working as it should. If it's not working, try pressing the button several times and ensuring whether the contacts are clean. You can also try it with a spare key fob to determine whether the issue is specific to the specific key. If it isn't the case, there could be another reason for why the key fob isn't working. For instance it could be because the button is worn out. This would make the button function occasionally but not continuously.

Interference

The key fob is powered by a tiny transmitter that transmits a short-range signal to a receiver in your car. Its goal is to enable your car to recognize the key fob, open its doors when you are near it, and begin when you push the ignition button.

Interference can occasionally interfere with communication. If you charge your second-generation Apple Pencil while holding the fob (via iGeneration) it could block you from unlocking the vehicle.

Other electronic devices operating on the same frequency can also interfere with the fob's signal. Garage door openers or tire pressure monitoring devices may be affected. It's even possible that an RF transmitter inside your home might be interfering with the fob's signal but this would be difficult to diagnose without an examination by a professional.

Your key fob could require reprogramming. The transmitter on your key fob must be recognized by the Mini's receiver. A unique code is used for each pairing. Fobs must be reprogrammed after being disconnected or replaced, if you purchase a replacement and in some cases when the battery is changed. Follow the instructions in your owner's manual to reprogram your key for mini cooper fob or seek assistance from a dealer.

Modern electronic key fobs offer the convenience and functionality of traditional manual keys, however they can also be more vulnerable to damage. A defective chip is one of the most common issues that can stop the key fob from working properly. It is usually a simple fix.

If your fob is always failing to turn on your car, this is an indication that the chip is malfunctioning. It is often possible to fix the problem by replacing the battery. This is a cost-effective and easy fix that is available at any hardware store or large retailer. To avoid problems in the future ensure that you purchase the right battery with the vehicle model you are using.

The fob should not be exposed to water, or soapy residue. Water can cause corrosion and interfere with the circuitry. If this is the case, you will need to clean it with isopropyl alcohol or an electronic cleaner prior to putting in the new battery.

Once the old battery is replaced, it is recommended to test the functionality of the fob before driving the vehicle. Examine the voltage of new battery with a voltmeter to ensure it's safe.
