Land Rover Key Fob Care

A Land Rover key fob is easy to operate, but if you want to keep it in the best shape possible, it’s important to consider the following:

• Environmental Damage: Your Land Rover key fob can be damaged by extreme heat and direct sunlight, so it’s a good idea to keep it in a secure place. Additionally, dust and humidity can harm the components of your key.
• Radio Frequency: Some medical equipment can interfere with the radio frequencies within your key fob. This can cause problems with your smart key performance.
• Battery Replacement: If your Land Rover panel displays “SMART KEY BATTERY LOW,” you’ll need to replace the batteries on all of your smart keys at once. Otherwise, you could cause permanent damage to your keys.

Land Rover Key Fob Battery Replacement: Step by Step

If you’re in need of a Land Rover key fob battery replacement, be sure to first pick up a CR2032 type battery — the parts department at Land Rover West Chester will have these on hand! Once you have your key fob replacement battery in hand, here’s how to open your Land Rover key fob and replace the battery:

1. Look for a small black button on your Land Rover key fob. Press down and release the metal emergency key. You might have a key that slides out of the casing instead.
2. Use a screwdriver or the key blade to pry open the key fob and reveal the battery.
3. Remove the battery carefully and place the Land Rover key fob battery replacement with the positive side facing up. Try not to touch the new battery on the face since this can speed up corrosion.
4. Put the key fob back together and snap the pieces in place. If your car’s display still shows a low battery warning, you may not be using a brand-new battery.

How to Program a Land Rover Key Fob

After you’ve mastered battery replacement, it’s time to move onto Land Rover key fob programming. Unfortunately, there isn’t a way to program your key fob at home, but Land Rover West Chester is more than able to program your Land Rover key fob for you here at the dealership!

When you visit our service center, one of our technicians will plug our scan tool into your Land Rover vehicle, after which it’s usually necessary to have the keyless vehicle module updated to a new software level.
