How To Reset Key FOB After Changing Battery (Resync a Key Fob)

In today's quick tutorial I show you how to reset key fob after changing battery as well as resetting key fob after battery change.
Most modern vehicles has key fobs these days. They are great for locking or unlocking and sometimes starting your vehicle. However, they run on a battery and when the battery or batteries die, you will need to replace the batteries in your key fob to get get it working again. However, sometimes, if you replace the battery and you key fob is not working as it should, you will have to perform a key fob reset. Resetting the key fob should be done after changing the batteries. In this video, I show you the easy process to resetting your key fob so it works again as it should.

Yes, didn't work for my 2014 vw jetta, new fob, same kèy. If that makes a difference. Horn did blow while cycling key in door. Thanks for your prompt msg, always a plus .

[@miyaho13]

All I can say is WOW and Thank You soooo much! I was getting ready to head to the dealership and spend several hundred dollars. I was doing a Google search and it led me to your video. I showed my husband your video and he tried it. We weren't sure if it did anything at first but noticed the change after we had turned the car on and back off a couple of hours later when we went out to dinner. It worked! He turned the key in the door just as you demonstrated. No more issues with my key fob , I have a 2018 Infinity QX60 by the way.

[@JMGENTERPRISES]

So very happy to hear that! Thanks for letting me know :-)

[@painter7869]

It works! I had made an appointment with the local Audi stealer (I only go there for recalls and a new remote fob) before seeing this video. When I bought the new fob, it took them nearly 3 hrs despite telling them I didn’t want a 1000 point checkup and a list of their favorite service jobs. It’s gonna feel so good to cancel!

[@JMGENTERPRISES]

Woohoo! Glad it helped and saved ya some money :-)

Thank you so much for getting straight to the helpful information! I hate videos that are full of useless filler content to make the videos longer. Quick and straight to the point.

8 MONTHS! Thats how long I suffered with these freaking key fobs having to constantly remove the key to unlock the door & push the fob hard into the push button to start my car. I thought it was weird that both fobs died at the same time when I only use one and keep the other in a drawer for service use only, but I changed both batteries and still nothing.

From the bottom of my heart thank you so so much. I took my 2019 Buick enclave to the dealership because I was having trouble with the remote start. They switched out my car battery then said that my remote wasn’t working. They said that the remote wasn’t getting signal from the car receiver and that I needed a new receiver. Luckily, the part was not in stock and they had to order it so I took my vehicle back home having to manually open it with the key. I got on KZbin and did my own research and thank God I found you. They wanted to charge me over $500 for a receiver. Again I appreciate you thank you so much for posting this video. You’re a great man.

My fob suddenly dies. I guess its battery is dead so i replace battery and of course fob still dead. I search internet up and down how to program the fob. I went as far as buying techstream usb cable and spent all day register the key. Everything fails and my last resort is buying a new fob before bring it to the dealer when i give up eventually . And i “ accidentally “ found your video. I can’t believe it when i turn the key 6 times and magically the key comes back to life. Thanks so much for your kindness sharing this amazing knowledge.
