How Often Should You Replace Car Key Batteries?

[DelCole]

Currently, car key batteries typically last about two years. Generally, remote keys won't suddenly run out of power. When the owner notices that the car doors only unlock when standing very close to the vehicle, it indicates the battery is about to die. Here are some maintenance tips for car keys: Storage Temperature: Do not expose the key to extremely cold environments below 0°C or extremely hot environments above 50°C, as this will significantly reduce battery lifespan. Storage Location: Keep the key in a dry environment, as humid conditions can decrease battery life. Avoid storing the key with hard objects that could scratch the chrome plating on the key.
