Water Damage

You may think that your key fob is destroyed if drop it in a pool or accidentally wash it. But there's a way to salvage it. If the circuit board inside the fob is exposed to water, it develops a conductor which shorts the components. It also increases corrosion and rust.

This is a simple fix. Find something absorbent and place it inside the fob. A paper towl or tissue works well. Make use of a cotton swab and isopropyl for cleaning the circuit board and any other components. Allow the circuit board to air dry in a dry, warm environment for several weeks.

When the fob has dried out, replace the battery with an alternative of the same size and the same polarity ('+' with the upwards direction). It can be difficult to open up the fob to get access to the battery but if you have a small screwdriver that is flat at hand, it will slide in easily. Once the fob is assembled and working, it should operate like normal. If it doesn't work you may need to program it again or replace the module.

Radio Interference

When a key fob functioning properly, it sends the radio frequency signal which is picked up by the receiver module in your car. If the signal is interrupted the key fob will not function. This could be due factors like weather conditions, objects, or other transmitters operating on the same frequency close to your car.

This could cause your key fob not to be able to trigger the vehicle's systems like the ignition switch, or the security system. In this scenario, it would be best to replace the battery on your key fob.

If the issue persists after installing a new battery, the antenna on your key fob could be damaged or inoperable. The antenna is responsible to transmit a signal between the key fob and the receiver module. An OBDII scanner can assist in diagnosing the problem by revealing what's wrong with the system. The scanner will ask for information about your specific vehicle, such as the model and make as well as the engine type and VIN number.

Faulty Receiver Module

The key fob is equipped with a receiver module that transmits the signals for lock and unlock. The electronic components on the board will cease functioning if this component develops a problem. If this is the case, reprogramming with an OBDII scanner or replacing the key fob could aid.

There are a variety of possible reasons for this problem, including a dead coin battery water damage, or signal interference. Try resetting the on-board computer by disconnecting the 12 volt battery for 15 minutes. This will eliminate any remaining electricity that may be causing issues. Begin by removing the cable from the negative terminal of the battery first, then the positive terminal. After 15 minutes, connect the battery in reverse order first: positive, then negative second.

Water or dirt can also damage the internal chip of the key fob. If the key fob you purchased stopped working after getting wet, wipe it with isopropyl, or an electronics cleaner. After that, replace the battery. If the key stops working after being exposed to salted or soapy water, it is likely that the chip has become damaged and needs to be replaced.

A damaged antenna module fuse may also be the cause. This is the fuse that transmits an alert to the vehicle to lock or unlock. The fuse can be found in several places, depending on the type of vehicle. For example it could be beneath the rear seat, or in the trunk, or the side of the dashboard.
