When Your Lexus Smart Key Fails

Smart Key is a convenient feature that lets you lock and unlock your Lexus IS 2021, open the trunk, and then start it without having to remove it from your pocket. However, there comes a time when the battery for the key fob is dead.

Luckily, you can swap the battery yourself using an flathead screwdriver and CR2032 lithium battery (available at a majority of electronics stores and hardware stores). Here's how to do it!

Keyless Entry

Your Lexus key fob comes with components that communicate with sensors in your vehicle. This lets you lock and unlock your doors, open the trunk, and turn on the ignition with a push button. This is a wonderful convenience that makes driving with a Lexus an absolute blast than driving an ordinary car. However, the key fob may eventually require batteries replaced in order to perform as it should.

You can extend the life of your keyfob by keeping it out from magnetic appliances such as TVs mobile phones, televisions, battery chargers as well as induction cooktops and table lamps. The closer your key fob is to these devices the more power they'll draw from.

Another method to ensure that your key fob will last a long time is by using it only for the functions that you need. You can also conserve your battery by decreasing the amount of time you press your buttons. To do this, press the LOCK button and the UNLOCK button at the same time. The electronic indicator for the key will flash four times to signal that your key fob is in the battery-saving mode. Press any button on the key fob once the lights stop flashing to get it back in working condition.

Immobilizer System

When you put your key in the ignition, it transmits an ID code to a receiver within the car. The computer will allow the engine to start if the ID code is similar to an earlier one stored in the car. However, if the ID code does not match, it activates an immobilizer that stops the engine from running.

This technology is effective even if your keys are stolen but it's not foolproof. In fact, it's possible to "hack" an anti-theft device that relies on radio waves. A thief could use an aerial antenna to detect the signal and spoof it to tell the car that the key is present.

To circumvent this experts are working on safer systems. Some of them offer WiFi connectivity, undetectable installation and pin code entry via dashboard buttons. To help customers choose the most reliable security features, Thatcham Research offers a grade and approval system to help you compare the various products.

If you're worried about the anti-theft system in your vehicle, changing the battery is the simplest step to take. You can locate the right replacement by consulting the owner's guide. Fuses are another possible cause and should be checked frequently. A replacement is available at the auto parts store if one blows.

Key Blade

Your Lexus key comes with an iron blade that can be used to open the lock cylinders in your vehicle's ignition as well as doors. The key fob also houses components that allow communication with your vehicle's Smart Access system and push-button start. Your key fob could be designed to last for a long time but daily use and exposure to elements of weather can cause your key to malfunction earlier than you anticipated. To help prevent this we suggest that you keep your key fob away from your vehicle as far as possible to reduce the frequency of its proximity sensors connecting and using up battery power.
