How To Start A Car When The Smart Key Battery Dies
Вставка

- In this video, I show you how to start a car when the smart key battery dies. If you own a modern car that uses a proximity key to start the engine, and the battery inside of the key fob dies, you will still be able to start the car. I show you the process with Honda CR-V, but it will be a similar process for other cars. Be sure to consult your owners manual to look for the specific instructions for your vehicle!

![[HINDI] Smart Key Battery Dead - How to Start the Car??](/img/n.gif)
4 years old, and this video saved my butt! Had to move housemate’s car during storm for fear of falling trees. The only spare they had was beyond dead. Knew about the hidden key to get in the car, but could not for the life of me figure out how to turn the car ON! Thank you so much!! Worked exactly like you said!
I’m here in 2023 thinking I’m doomed 😅
I was stuck today at a grocery store and I went on UA-cam to see how to start the car if your car fob dies and this video really helped me a lot I reached home safely thank u very much .
I wish I was at the store then I could buy a new battery shits still not working
My cars key has been running low on battery and today it finally died, I spent about 5min trying to turn it on and i decided to just give UA-cam a try and look up way to turn it on, came across your video, gave it a try and BAM !! It worked haha I normally don’t comment on videos but wanted to leave you a comment giving you props for it lol 🤘🏽
I'm in the same boat. I'm currently sitting in my car trying to figure this out
@@Damia_In_Wonderland my Honda CR-V owner' s manual had nothing to say about how to start your car when the fob battery dies. In fact the owner's manual -all 170 pages is ridiculously complex to understand.
THANK YOU I was sitting in my car for 10 minutes and it would not start. Found your video worked like magic you are appreciated.
VerifiedPistola now that this happend, always keep a spare remote battery in your car, you can always hide it where you can access it with a car key.
WTH did we do before the internet????
I'm so glad I watched this video
My car wouldn't start battery was dead
But I learned what to do
Thanks .
Thank-you for your help! Even calling the Honda place didn't help & it wasn't in the manual. you would think the salesperson would show us everything but they don't. U saved the day. Granny
Not all hero’s wear capes cause Maan!!, I was sweating balls if I had to call a tow truck 😅. Thank you!.
Thank you so much for this video! Key Fob stopped working and I replaced the key fob battery and it still didn’t start. I watched the video and followed the instructions and it started Dodge Journey 2014. I was stranded at Walmart with groceries and this video saved me a tow and time❤
My mom had a similar in incident like this , now that I have my own, she gave me a good tip: Always keep a spare battery, it’s not much but it will save you if it so happens to die on you. A buttoncell battery is inexpensive and compact, so you can keep it in your glove compartment. Buy two if you have to and keep the other on the trunk with your spare tire.
Thanks man you just saved me from freezing to death out in the cold
What a great tip! I'm having issues with my CR V fobs (replaced the battery not two months ago and now it says it's low again). Something must be up, but I'm glad you posted this in the event I get caught with a dead battery. Seems to have worked for people. Thanks a bunch!
I have ALWAYS been a big believer in simplicity. These keys and everything associated with them is nuts.
Smart key makes life WAY simpler. I put my keys in my pocket in the morning when I leave the house, and leave them there until I get home in the evening and unlock the door to my house. Don't need to unlock car door, don't need to have key out to start the car; can start it remotely on cold winter mornings; never have to worry about locking my keys in the car because even if I wanted to, the car literally wouldn't let me. Having to change the battery once every couple years is a small - no, tiny - no, MINISCULE price to pay for all that simplicity and convenience.
@@terrid7827 Um yeah, I remember all the stress associated with taking keys out of my pocket, and putting them in door locks. Not sure how I ever made it through those years. Am so happy my children will not have to be burdened with a key DAY in and day out in the for a couple decades. So blessed.🙂
@@dannywilliams618 🤣
My wife notoriously locked her keys inside or misplaced her keys before we bought our 2016 CRV with push button start. Chasing after a rambunctious 4 year old can make you forget where you laid your keys, or you just subconsciously lay them down when tending to the little one! In that context, the push button start feature actually simplified our lives! Now, it just lives in her purse in a zippered pocket. No more AAA unlock calls! We love it!
As a side story, back in the 90's when we all still were using actual keys, my mom had the same tendencies to misplace her keys as well. She had 10 kids to chase after. After my dad had to come bring her the spare set a few times, he eventually just wired a spare key up under the vehicle chassis for her! Now, she has a push button 2019 HRV and loves it!
Started car and it said battery was running low on fob. I was going to work and was afraid so I grabbed my other fob just in case the 1st one died while at work. This is extremely helpful! 🙏
The world needs more people like you!!! Thanks a lot!!
👏👏
Worked like Magic !!! Thank you !. This saved me a long walk to the Auto store !
Much appreciated my friend! I knew I could get into the car with the physical key, but I didn't know about putting the fob up to the button.
You saved my life today. Worked perfectly on my 2015 honda Crosstour. Thank you Thank you🙏🙏🙏
I also knew about the key but not the additional chip. You’ve saved me a lot of hassle. Thankyou
#1 Find the key inside and open the door like a normal car
#2 put the fob near the start/stop button cause there’s a chip that doesn’t require a battery most likely an nfc chip.
Simple.
My car wouldn't start .The battery died, so I asked my neighbor to take me to work. Now I see how to start the car . Thanks
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE INFO... IT WORKED HOLDING RIGHT NEXT TO START BUTTON...
This video is a life saver. My fob was not working and i had no idea. Car is running.... thanks.
Convenient. This was always my biggest concern about having a push to start button vehicle
This man making a video to help everyone and y'all wanna complain about the length of his explanations? That are being given for YOUR benefit? In a video YOU chose to watch?
Meagan C I had to stop watching it. And got to someone else’s page. He just blabals on unnecessary. I don’t think it’s as much people complaining as people are trying to give him constructive criticism so he next video is not so wordy and more to the point.
Sound like people from my generation. Ill go ahead and apologize on behalf of them...
Great video did 12 hours jus trna go home and my car wouldn't start
Was freaking out very usefull
Thank you! My owners manual did not have any mention of that, at least that I could find.
Thank you kind sir! You got me out of trouble. I do appreciate that.
Thank you you just saved me but mine was so dead I had to like hold it up right after n front of it when starting so if this method doesn’t work try doing them both at once!
DUDE - **Just** saved my day.
OMGGGGGGG Thank you!!!
You are a legend! Just tried it and it works! God bless you
This saved my bf a whole lotta trouble especially Right now through this corona virus lockdown bc Honda is not working and all so thank you
Get a battery at Walmart
I just did it it works atleast now I will have peace of mind when I see mine has low battery thank you
I love how you can go to UA-cam to get answers rather than your owners manual with too many words lmao
Thank you very much sir today I start the car with out hard time because of your video I learn very early morning today thank you more power and God bless you
your a life saver man, this trick started my '17 honda accord!
I almost thought this video was fake just because you stopped just before turning on your car lol. Looking at the comments, I’m thankful for this video!
Nah git saved me from being stranded in the middle of nowhere
You a real one for this video, man! 💯💯💯
Thanks man you helped my mom today. Liked. I drive a Honda and it's different, it has a cap.
Thank you so much I was stuck and it has worked for my vehicle..
Very helpful / thank you - got us back and started in the car with 2 very tired dogs
Thanks a lot. Our battery died and it was 2 degree C. U saved us. Thanks a lot.
The key FOB is using NFC technology as like used in credit cards, and mobile phones for tap and pay to start the car when the FOB battery is dead. Most cars have the vehicle NFC sensor behind the ignition switch. Some have it in another location. Check the owner's manual for details. Place the key FOB at the proper position; usually at the ignition button and press the button. The car should start.
It's not NFC. It's just getting the weak signal closer to the receiver. I just verified this with my FOB by trying to add an Apple Shortcuts Personal Automation that is able to be triggered by scanning NFC. My NFC credit cards work with no problems and are recognized as NFC, but not the FOB. The iPhone does not recognize the FOB at all.
That was very informational. Thank you.
Thank Goodness for wise men who make life saving videos.
Thanks so much for this education!
Thank you! I was stuck in the grocery store parking lot in 8 degree weather!
Yikes
Wow that happened to me today but wasn’t cold thank God
This saved us when the fob died in the wilderness in the middle of winter
Thanks for the info. Very helpful.
Just got stuck at the post office!!! Thanks for the info!!! 😀😱 going to get a battery now 😁
Thank you so much!!!this was so helpful!!
Works! Do I need a key replaced? If this issue occurs.
Very helpful. Thank you!!!
Thanks for this video . I didn't knw how to start my Odyssey until I seen this thanks again very helpful
when I called Honda road-side assistance they didn't know this and called me a tow truck. Seems like this should be top of the FAQ
Thank you so much. Key failed and was stuck. You fixed it
great video. also the batteries for the fob you can find then at the 99 cent store 3 for a dollar, keep them handy and you can change them your self.
Thank you, worked perfectly
This video saved my life today! lol thank you!
Super helpful, thank you so much 🙂👍
Thank you for the solution. Helped me open my car when battery died
THANK YOU from a grateful teacher
YOU JUST SAVED ME. THANK YOU ANGEL
Great video and will get a lot of people out of trouble thankyou.
On the later civics and mybe other models too the with smart display screen it warns you if remote key is out of range and you get message like...
"Keyless remote not being Detected"
If you are getting this message but you have the remote key with you
It could also mean that the battery inside the key fob is weak so you should have it replaced ASAP before it lets you down.
However if battery in remote has gone you can still start the car, the display in your car will tell you what to do, you will see a message like....
"To start hold remote near start button"
It will also display a picture on screen showing you this.
Hope that helps.
Very helpful video thanks!
Years later, thank you bro.
