Why Does the Car Remote Key Malfunction in Winter?
1 Answers
Low temperatures cause insufficient battery power in the remote key. Steps to replace the car key battery: Generally, each brand of car key has a mechanical key. After locating the mechanical key, apply slight pressure at the top of the key to open it. Use a small flathead screwdriver to gently pry out the old battery, then install the new battery by aligning it with the original positive and negative directions. After installing the battery, reassemble the key by inserting the mechanical key back into its slot, and the assembly is complete. How to maintain car keys: Most smart keys today have internal circuits that are relatively weak against impact. They can easily be damaged by severe collisions or drops, which affects the key's lifespan. Long-term contact or collisions with metal objects or hard items may also damage the key. Avoid exposing smart keys to high-temperature environments, such as direct sunlight, and do not place them on the windshield. Additionally, avoid storing them in humid environments or exposing them to liquids, as water ingress can burn out the internal circuits, leading to remote failure. Be extremely cautious when replacing the battery in a smart car key, as any mistake can damage the circuit board inside the key.
