How to Prolong the Life of Your Lexus Replacement Key Fob

In the 1990s, many cars were equipped with keys that could be used as remotes to send signals for ignition of the engine and door locking. The majority of Lexus key fobs run on the CR2032 battery, which can be purchased at a local drugstore, big-box store, or even a camera shop.

The service center located near Manhasset at Ray Catena Lexus can help you replace your Lexus replacement key fob, and can even suggest ways to minimize the depletion of your battery!

Getting Started

It could appear that your Lexus key fob is an easy device to unlock your car and start the engine. But it's much more than meets the eyes. You can use the fob to perform many tricks that most drivers aren't aware of. You can also extend your battery life by following some simple guidelines.

Most devices require the CR2032 lithium coin-cell battery in order to work properly. These can be bought for about $10 at hardware stores or big-box retailers. You can also find them at some specialty shops, and it's even possible to purchase replacements from a dealer for a little less.


You'll need to remove the key fob to change the battery and the procedure can differ according to the model year. The cover of the majority of Lexus models features a release lever that opens the fob. It must be pushed to take off the mechanical blade. Next, use an open-ended screwdriver to break the cover of the key fob and remove the battery that was in the previous. You can also wrap the tip of the screwdriver in tape if you want to avoid scratching the key fob's plastic surface. Put the new battery in place with the positive side facing upwards.

Some Lexus owners can also open their windows or open their roofs by pressing the lock button. However this feature must be activated by a technician at the dealership. It's one of the coolest features that your Lexus can provide, and it only works if the key fob has functioning batteries.

Battery Replacement

Your Lexus keyfob is a sophisticated piece of technology which allows you to lock or unlock your vehicle's doors, and start your push-button ignition without removing your keys from your pocket or purse. However, regular use and exposure to elements can cause this highly-technical device to develop a problem that requires replacement batteries.

It's easy to replace the battery in your Lexus Key Fob from the comfort of your Cabo-Rojo home. Press the release button on the right side of your key fob to release the blade that is used for emergency. Then, place the flathead tip of a screwdriver into the same space and use gentle pressure to pull the cover plate of the key fob off. Make sure you wrap the end of your screwdriver in tape prior to beginning this process in case the plastic may scratch or crack.

Programming

In addition to locking and unlocking your car, key fobs also do all sorts of other functions, such as rolling down your windows or even call it when you're stuck in a parking space. Unfortunately this means that replacing a lost or damaged key fob can be costly, especially for high-end vehicles such as Lexus models.

A locksmith or dealer will replace a key fob for you at a cost of $50 to $75. However, with some knowledge and time you can save cost and replace your key fob battery on your own.

The process of programming the replacement Lexus remote or transponder key is to inform the computer of your car that the new remote is authorized to start the engine. This is done using a specific programming machine which is usually available at your dealer.

You can purchase a new remote or an alternative key fob at many hardware stores, big-box retailers, and on the internet. You'll also find plenty of YouTube videos from people who will show you how to complete the task. The majority of these steps are simple, but you might have to do some research depending on the year and model of your Lexus. For example, some Lexus fobs are encrypted, meaning they require an additional key to open the doors and start the engine. If you already own a key that's not transponder-enabled, you can be programmed and cut to work.

Assistance

Even the most experienced drivers might not know some ways to use a Lexus Key Fob. These tricks will make driving your vehicle easier, and can also allow you to make the most of the amazing features that your car has to offer.

The best advice for Lexus owners is to keep the key fob safe from electronic devices like laptops and TVs that produce magnetic fields. These appliances can interfere and cause the fob's battery to run out its battery too soon.
