Key fobs in the modern world have more to offer than unlock and start the vehicle. They can also control your sunroof as well as the windows. They are expensive to replace if you lose or damage them.

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

Battery

Modern key fobs offer incredible functionality and convenience, but they require a bit of care to ensure they continue functioning well. Over time, the battery in the key fob will run out of juice and will need to be replaced. When your car is harder to start or the buttons stop functioning, you'll know it's time to replace your battery.

Changing the battery in your key fob is easy. First you need to place the key fob on a flat surface and press the metal button until it pops open. Use a screwdriver with a flat blade or your fingernail to gently pull out the two halves.

Then, take off the clips that hold the battery. If your key fob comes with a slot for the battery, replace it with a new one, making sure to insert it correctly in the plus and the minus orientation.

You'll need the CR 2032 3V coin cell, which is readily available in stores that sell batteries or on the internet. The battery is typically designed like a disc that has a plus and minus symbol printed on it. Be cautious when handling the battery because it could leak when you touch it with dirty hands. Leaks can harm the circuit board, making it less likely to function well in the future.

Programming

The car key fob of today does more than unlock and start the car, it's also an instrument for controlling various systems. It can be used to change the position of your mirror and seat as well as setting your radio and climate control preferences and many more that are customized to your requirements. These smart key fobs can also be damaged by several factors. Sometimes, simply replacing the battery in your key fob can be enough However, other times, reprogramming the fob might be necessary.

The process of reprogramming a key fob doesn't need to be a hassle, and it can be done at the convenience at home or at work. First, secure your vehicle and ensure that your keys are inside it. Press and hold the "Unlock" and "Lock" buttons on your new key fob at the same time, until you hear a chime, or the locks cycle. This will reset the connection between the key fob and your vehicle.

Remove the backup key made of metal from your fob. Set it aside in a safe place. The back cover should be pushed towards the center of your fob, which will lift it a bit before removing it. Replace the fob's key with the latest CR2032 battery which you can buy from our Golden Valley parts section or at local hardware stores and supermarkets in Minnetonka and St Louis Park.

Keyless Entry

Modern key fobs come with various benefits, ranging from convenience to safety. The fob can be used to open the doors and trunk of your vehicle by pressing a button which transmits radio frequency signal to the receiver inside your vehicle. The system does not come without its flaws.

For example, some thieves have built devices that intercept signals from your key and reproduce them to function as a "key" to open your car and start it. You can guard yourself by putting your key fob into a shielded case (also called Faraday pouches) which limit the distance that frequencies emitted by the fob can be transmitted. You can find these pouches at the majority of auto parts stores for less than PS10.

Some systems also permit you to enter the car without pressing a button. When you step up to the handle of the door the car will automatically lock and unlock when your key is on its fob.

Key fobs can also help managers and owners of businesses to be more in control. They can allow specific employees to access specific areas of your building or facility during specific hours of operation. You can even cancel entry access for a lost or fired employee at the pressing of a button. This tool is particularly helpful for warehouses and other facilities that require more security.

Calling

Many of the more modern key fobs are equipped with hidden functions that simplify life for car owners. For instance, a CR auto editor, for example went to the Honda Accord he was driving and found that all of the windows were shut down automatically when he was at home. This is certainly not a good thing particularly during a downpour or if the car was covered in snow.

The Model 3's key fob is equipped with numerous other interesting options, including the ability to summon or auto-park the vehicle by pressing of the button. Another neat function is the panic button, which a driver can press in a scary scenario, for instance, when a burglar enters the home. This can scare off the criminal and alert neighbors, says a Tesla spokesperson.

Replace the battery that was in your key fob by a brand new mini key CR2032 (available at local hardware stores as well as large-box retailers). Then reinstall the key fob's cover on the bottom and press it until you hear a snap. Once the fob has been activated you can test its functions by unlocking and locking your car.

A duplicate key fob could also be helpful to give to a family member or friend to enable them to use their own Driver profile with the settings they prefer. This means you don't have to worry about a partner or sibling accidentally changing the mirror's position, climate control settings, or seat placement that you prefer.
