When Your lexus replacement keys Smart Key Fails

The Smart Key is an ultra-convenient feature that allows you to lock and unlock your 2021 Lexus IS, open the trunk, and begin it without ever taking it from your pocket. However there comes a point when the key fob battery dies.

You can replace the battery with an CR2032 Lithium battery (available in most electronic or hardware stores). Here's how to do it!

Keyless Entry

Your Lexus key fob contains technology that connects to sensors inside your vehicle to let you lock and unlock your doors and trunk, as well as unlock the trunk and then start the ignition by pressing a button. This fantastic convenience makes driving in a Lexus more enjoyable than driving a traditional vehicle. The key fob is going to eventually require batteries replaced in order to work properly.

The good news is that you can prolong the life of the battery in your key fob by keeping it at least three feet away from electrical appliances that produce a magnetic field, including TVs, cell phones and battery chargers, induction cookers and table lamps. The closer your keyfob is to these devices, the more power they'll consume.

The other way to make sure your key fob will last a long time is to use it only for the functions you need. You can also save your battery by reducing the time you press your buttons. To do this, press the LOCK button and the UNLOCK button at the same time. The electronic key indicator will flash four times to show that your key fob is in the battery-saving mode. Press any button on the key fob once the lights have stopped flashing to bring it back in working order.

Immobilizer System

When you insert the key into ignition, it transmits an identification code to a receiver within the car. If the ID code matches that in its memory, the car's computers allow the engine start. However, if the ID code isn't compatible, it triggers an immobilizer which prevents the engine from starting.

This technology can be used even if your keys are stolen but it's not foolproof. It is possible to "hack" or alter the radio wave anti-theft system. A burglar could use an aerial antenna to detect the signal and spoof it to tell the vehicle that the key is in.

Experts are working on safer methods to avoid this. Some provide WiFi connectivity as well as undetectable installation, and pin code entry via buttons on the dashboard. To help buyers choose the most secure security features, Thatcham Research offers a grading and approval system to make it easier to compare the various products.

If you're concerned about the anti-theft feature of your car, the simplest thing to do is to replace the battery, if old. You can locate the proper replacement by consulting the owner's manual. Fuses could also be a problem and you must be sure to check them frequently. If one blows up, a replacement can be easily found at the auto parts store.

Key Blade

Your Lexus key has a blade made of metal that can be used to open the lock cylinders on your vehicle's ignition and doors. The key fob also has components that allow communication with your vehicle's Smart Access system and push-button to start. Your key fob may be designed to last for an extended time, but the constant use and exposure of weather elements can cause your key to fail sooner than expected. To prevent this from happening, we recommend you store your key fob in a safe place away from your vehicle as much as you can, to stop its proximity sensors from constantly connecting and using up battery power.
