What Does the Key Symbol on the Dashboard Mean?
1 Answers
If a key symbol appears, it means the car has not detected the key. This could be due to a damaged receiver module in the car, a malfunctioning transmitter module in the key, or the key's battery being dead. Here is some relevant information: 1. Many cars are equipped with a keyless start system. With this system, the driver does not need to use the key after entering the car. Instead, they just need to press the brake pedal and the start button to ignite the engine. The remote key contains a transmitter module, and the car has a receiver module, which allows the car to detect the key. 2. Generally, cars with a keyless start system have a designated area inside the car to sense the key. If the key's battery is dead, placing the key in this sensing area will allow the car to detect it.
