Why is the Haval H6 key remote not responding?
2 Answers
Haval H6 remote key not responding may be due to a weak battery that needs replacement. If the issue persists after replacing the battery, it is recommended to have it checked at a 4S store or a professional repair shop. Most remote key batteries have a lifespan of 2-3 years, depending on usage frequency, which may vary across different car models. Below are the steps to replace the car remote key battery: 1. Press the release button to remove the mechanical key. 2. Use a flathead screwdriver to gently pry open the back cover of the key and remove it. 3. Take out the old battery and insert the new one into the slot. Ensure the positive side of the battery faces downward during installation. 4. Reattach the key back cover. After installation, verify if the key buttons function properly.
Last time I drove my H6, I encountered the same issue. After struggling for a while, I found out the key battery was dead. These small button batteries need replacement every two years—just buy a CR2032 model from the supermarket for a few bucks and pry open the key shell to replace it yourself. If there’s a strong interference source in the parking lot, like a signal tower or hospital equipment, the remote might also fail—try moving to a different spot. There’s also a folk remedy—press the key against your chin while pressing the button; the human body can amplify the signal. If you frequently drop the key or get it wet, the internal circuit board might have poor contact. If all else fails, try the spare key—if the spare works, it means the main key is faulty and needs reprogramming at the 4S store. By the way, if the microswitch on the door handle gets stuck, the remote might stop working—using the mechanical key to open the door a few times might fix it.
