What to Do When the Cruze Remote Key Fails?
1 Answers
If the Cruze remote key fails, first determine whether it is caused by a dead battery. After replacing the battery, try again in an area without signal interference. If the key still fails to work after replacing the battery, you need to go to a 4S shop to re-pair a new remote key. Here is some relevant information: 1. How the remote key works: The key first emits a weak radio wave, which is received by the car's antenna. The electronic control unit (ECU) identifies the signal code, and then the system's actuator (motor or electromagnetic coil) performs the locking/unlocking action. 2. Precautions: For smart keys, the biggest fear is being dropped from a height, as most smart key shells are quite sturdy, but the internal circuits have weak impact resistance and are prone to damage under severe collisions. Additionally, if a smart car key gets wet, it can burn out the internal circuits, also causing the remote to fail.
