Driver's Key Battery Low

[tigerbalm]

Got this warning recently after using the key for a year. Seemed accurate as I noticed that the red light on the key wouldn't flash when I pressed a button – though it still was working in the car.

I changed out the battery using a named brand Duracell CR2032 battery. The red light on the key is back flashing – suggesting a new strong battery replaced occured.

However, for past few days, each time I enter the car I get the same warning – as if the battery wasn't changed.

Any ideas?

Have the same thing. After 2-3 days it stops. Car is just a slow one I guess..

Try placing the key in the cupholder to force a re-registration.

Will probably clear on its own.

Should last 2 - 3 years though!
