Keyless entry systems like the MOPAR Keyless Enter ‘N Go system are known for making your driving experience much easier. The ability to walk up to your vehicle and have it unlock automatically without the need to fumble around for your keys is useful enough; the ability to start your vehicle without putting the key in the ignition further adds to the convenience! These systems are truly impressive, but the key fobs are powered by batteries. This means that they’ll need new batteries from time to time. When this time comes, head to DuPage Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, serving Bloomingdale and Wheaton, IL. We’ll be glad to replace the battery in your keyless entry key fob.
As time goes by, the battery in your keyless entry key fob will become weaker. This means that you’ll have to get closer and closer to your vehicle to unlock it. If you’ve noticed that the range for unlocking your vehicle has decreased, don’t ignore it! Doing so could cause you to experience avoidable problems like difficulty unlocking or starting your vehicle.
Even if the key fob’s battery has died, it should still be possible to unlock your vehicle with the manual key itself. This doesn’t require any battery power, after all. It may even be possible to start your vehicle, though that may be trickier. Bringing your key very close to the ignition button may do the trick, since keyless fobs tend to have weak built-in wireless transmitters that don’t require a battery. Of course, this can be tricky to pull off in practice, so don’t rely on this.
