How to Start the Car When the Mazda Atenza Key Battery Dies?
2 Answers
When the remote key battery is dead, you can insert the remote key into the hidden slot to start the car. Here is some knowledge about how to use the car remote key: When approaching the car: When the driver brings the key in their pocket close to the car, the key and the car begin exchanging preset command information via radio waves. Subsequently, the car's locking system, security system, and engine control system are all activated. When opening the car door: As soon as the driver touches the door handle, the sensor detects this pressure, and the servo motor unlocks the door while the turn signals flash twice. Then, the seat, steering wheel, and exterior rearview mirrors automatically adjust to the preset position suitable for the owner.
I remember that the key running out of battery was a common issue when driving the Atenza. First, remove the hidden physical key blade from the key fob—usually by prying open the cover on the side or bottom. After using it to open the door, don’t panic. Get into the driver’s seat and locate the start button. The Mazda system requires the key to be placed close to the button, sometimes near the steering wheel or the cup holder’s induction area. Press the button for a few seconds to start. If it doesn’t work the first time, try adjusting the key’s position. For safety, check the key’s indicator light before heading out—if it glows a weak red, the battery is nearly dead. It’s recommended to always keep a CR2032 battery handy or carry a spare key. Replace the battery every two years to prevent malfunctions. Fellow drivers find this method reliable to avoid getting stranded on the road.
