How Long Does the Lynk & Co 03 Key Battery Last?
2 Answers
The battery life of the Lynk & Co 03 key is typically 2-3 years. The exact replacement time varies depending on usage frequency and different vehicle models, making it difficult to determine precisely. When the car key battery is running low, you may notice the following signs: 1. The effective range of the car key remote decreases. Previously, you could unlock the car from within 6 meters, but when the battery is low, you need to get closer to the car, sometimes even right next to it for a response. 2. The remote control becomes intermittent, working sometimes and not others. 3. If the indicator light on the car key appears significantly dimmer than usual, it indicates that the key battery is almost depleted, and you should replace it promptly.
My Lynk & Co 03 has been running for almost two and a half years, and I haven't changed the key battery yet. This key is smart-sensing, allowing me to unlock the car just by getting close to the door, which is quite convenient. Many car owners say it can last two to three years without issues, depending on usage frequency. If you press the unlock/lock buttons dozens of times a day, the battery will drain faster. A few tips can help prolong its life: don’t place the key next to your phone, as electromagnetic interference can silently drain the battery; if you notice that you have to get unusually close to the car to unlock it or see a small key-with-battery icon warning on the dashboard, it’s time to replace the CR2032 coin battery. It’s easy to pry open the key’s back cover and replace it yourself—just buy a genuine battery from the supermarket for about five yuan.
