What Causes the Key Symbol on the Sylphy Display to Flash?

[Thaddeus]

The reason the key symbol on the Sylphy display flashes is that the vehicle cannot detect the smart key. Possible causes include low battery in the key, key malfunction, or electromagnetic interference. Low Battery in the Key: If the vehicle cannot detect the key and the one-touch start function fails, the first thing to check is whether the car key has sufficient battery. Try replacing the key's battery and then attempt the one-touch start again to see if the issue is resolved. If the problem persists, it might be due to poor battery contact, in which case the car key should be taken for repair. Key Malfunction: Try using the spare key to determine if the first key is faulty. If the spare key works, it confirms that the first key has an issue. If the spare key also fails, the vehicle should be inspected at a repair shop. Electromagnetic Interference: Check for any electromagnetic or signal interference sources. Sometimes, placing a mobile phone near the car key can cause interference, or even the car's dashcam might interfere with the key. Try placing the key in a separate location and restarting the vehicle. If the issue persists, the transmitter and receiver should be inspected.
