Faulty Receiver Module

If your key fob has stopped working after replacing the battery, but it didn't work, or if it suddenly stopped working your receiver module might have encountered a problem. The receiver module receives the radio frequency signals from your key fob's remote and converts them into electrical commands that are then followed by other modules in the car.

Faulty Electronic Chip

The key fob houses a small electronic chip that transmits a message to the receiver module whenever the key is used. If the signal doesn't match the one stored by the car the immobilizer will stop the engine and prevent the vehicle from beginning. If the key fob you purchased does not work and you are unable to reprogram it, this could be because of an issue with the microchip.

The chip in the key fob is not a permanent part of the device and may need to be replaced in order to get it working again. This can be done by taking the key fob away from its housing, and using a needle or pin to connect with each metal retaining clip. If these clips are damaged or broken, you will require replacement to allow the remote control to work. Make sure the replacement batteries have the same size, voltage, and specification as the original.
