Types of car keys include: 1. Mechanical key; 2. Remote key; 3. Touchscreen LCD key; 4. Smart bracelet key. The working principle of a car key is: the key emits radio waves, which are received by the car antenna. The electronic control unit (ECU) identifies the signal code, and the system's actuator performs the locking or unlocking action.
I've been driving my Sonata 9 for several years and changing the key fob battery has become routine. First, locate the small gap on the back of the key, then gently pry it open using a thin screwdriver or credit card - avoid using excessive force to prevent cracking the plastic casing. Inside you'll find a CR2032 coin battery, which costs about 10 yuan at supermarkets or online. When removing the old battery, note the polarity direction - usually the positive side faces up or the side with markings faces down. After inserting the new battery, gently clean the contacts with a cotton swab before snapping the cover back on until you hear a click. Test the lock/unlock buttons; if response is sluggish, the battery might be improperly seated or contacts need cleaning. These batteries typically last over a year, so storing your keys in a protective case reduces impacts and extends lifespan. DIY replacement saves dozens in labor costs - it's a quick 5-minute job that prevents dealership overcharging.
