Reasons Your fiat ducato key fob programming 500 Key Fob Won't Work

A key fob with the fiat 500 number is a handy way to unlock the doors and get started the car. There are a myriad of reasons the fob won't work. This includes a dead coin-battery or water damage, problems with receiver modules, as well as interference.

This listing is for a NEW replacement Fiat Flip Key Remote - similar to the Ilco brand that must be professionally programmed by a local locksmith (click here for Locksmith Search). This remote includes lock, reprogrammed unlock and trunk buttons.

Dead Coin Battery

The most frequent reason why your 500 key fob won't function is due to a dead battery. Key fobs of today have a limited range of operation and must be within only a few inches from the vehicle to work. If you are far from your vehicle, and you push the keyfob button it will not respond and display the message "Key Fob Not Detected".

If this happens, replace the coin cell battery (Part number CR2032) with a brand new one from a trusted brand like Panasonic, Duracell, or Energizer. You can usually find them at your local hardware store or on the internet.

After you've replaced the battery in the coin cell It is possible to test it by standing next to your fiat car keys cut 500 and pressing the buttons. The car should flash its parking lights, and the key fob will operate the lock and unlock switches.

If your key fob isn't working even after replacing the battery, there might be water damage that has prevented it from interacting with the module in your vehicle. Water damage can happen in a variety of ways, such as a simple splash or submerging the key fob in saltwater at the beach. If you suspect that your fob has been exposed to water, you can try placing it in a dry rice bag to draw the moisture out. If that doesn't work, the fob might need to be reprogrammed by an experienced auto locksmith or dealer.

Water Damage

Water damage can occur when you immerse the fob in the ocean or wash it in a washing machine. Saltwater can cause the circuit board to short and then end up dying. It's not good to let the fob get wet however, but don't give it up even if you accidentally drop the fob in water or forget to take it out of your pocket.

First take the battery off the fob. Before replacing the battery clean the electronic chip using isopropyl or similar products. Then try the fob and test if it works. If the fob doesn't work, it might need to be reprogrammed. This is usually done by an auto locksmith or dealer.

If your key is a bit older and is not programmed to work with your vehicle, you will need to replace it completely. A professional locksmith for cars can do this job. The locksmith needs to cut the key to match the ignition of your car. The locksmith also needs to reprogram your fob into the vehicle's system. This is a cheap and quick process that can be completed within the same day.

Receiver Module Issues

The 500 key fob you have may be inoperable because it's out of range. The remote typically has an area of 30 feet or less and if it's far from your car, it won't respond to your commands. It can be solved by moving closer to your vehicle until it begins responding.

If your fob doesn't work after replacing the battery in the coin, also known as a "button", "watch" or "button" It could be due to a problem with the circuit board inside. Reprogramming the fob is usually the solution to this problem. You can find the instructions on how to do this for most automobiles by searching YouTube or looking through the owner's manual.

It is sometimes necessary to replace the clips made of metal that hold the coin batteries in the correct position. If they loose tension, it could hinder the coin battery from sitting properly and can cause your remote to malfunction.

In rare instances, the fob may become disconnected from your vehicle because of software or hardware issues. You can fix this problem by visiting your local dealer or auto-locksmith to reprogram your key fob. In some instances the software might need to be reinstalled in your body control modules.

Interference

Interference can also cause the key fob not to receive or transmit a signal. This could occur if the keyfob is in close proximity to a radio transmitter like a cellphone or radar detector. Other reasons why the key fob might not function could be due to a weak connection to the buttons or damage to the internal chip or water damage.

If the key fob has failed to work one day without notice and you've tried everything you can do at home to solve it e.g. replacing batteries, reprogramming or using the spare key fob, you could have a defective receiver module on your 500. The receiver module is located under the dash and picks up the radio frequency signals from the key fob. It converts them into electronic commands that the vehicle interprets.

Fortunately, there's an easy method of resetting all of the onboard systems in your 500 and include the key fob. Disconnect the battery for 15 minutes, removing first the negative cable and then the positive cable. Reconnect the battery. This will remove any remaining electric current, and also restart the computer of your car. This could help you get your key fob working again. If the problem persists you should consult an expert technician. They will be able to determine the exact cause of problems.
