No, You do not need a key fob to start a car. When starting a car, you put the key in the ignition and turn. Power comes from car battery, not from the key fob battery!
Hold the key fob next to the start button.
Weak battery in fob?
Find out what type of battery the fob takes, and then replace it. If you are in the middle of nowhere, then i dont know.
Yes
There is a little button battery inside the key fob that sends a signal to the receiver in the car. The battery is probably dead.
If the battery is dead the alarm will not go off
It's not that the key fob stopped working, but, if your car battery is dead, it's the car that has no power to pop the door locks.
HI, I have a clio 172, i have recently had that problem with my car, what would be worth doing is actually changing the battery in the key fob, if the battery is week it will not recognise the key and therefore not start. It will crank but not fully start, I changed my battery in the key fob and started first time after!
It is likely that your battery is dead.
I went to Timsons to have a new betery put inkey fob he could not do it as it would wipe memory of key and the car would not start where do I now take key for battery change
== == If I remember right - you remove fob battery, hold both buttons down fro 30 seconds. Replace battery, stand next to driver door and hold down both buttons for 30 seconds. It is either this or very similar sequence - it has worked for me. R call a locksimth to have your remote reprogramed you lost your signal
