How to Get a Mitsubishi Replacement Key Fob The key fob is just one of the many useful features that Mitsubishi vehicles provide. These handy devices can be a hassle when they stop working. The good news is that this problem is typically easy to fix. The first step is to replace the battery. Luckily, this is an easy task that can be accomplished at home. 1. Identify Your Vehicle You're aware of how beneficial the various convenience features are when you are driving a Mitsubishi. The key fob is among of the most useful features, because it lets you open the door and start the car without having to use the physical key. If you do lose or break your Mitsubishi key fob, you might be wondering how you can find a replacement. There are several things you can do, such as visiting your dealer or calling an expert locksmith. The key fob is a vital part of any Mitsubishi vehicle. If you lose or break your Mitsubishi key fob, you may not be in a position to access any of the vehicle's handy features. While it's possible to change the key fob on your own, the process isn't exactly simple. First, you'll need to have the correct type of battery for your key fob. A wrong battery could cause your key fob to malfunction or stop working altogether. Then, you'll need to take apart the key fob and remove the old batteries from the device. You can remove the indentation on the top of the Mitsubishi key fob, where the key attachment is located using the help of a screwdriver. Then, replace the dead battery with new ones that is the same size as your Mitsubishi key fob. Once the battery is installed, you can join the two parts of your Mitsubishi key fob back together and then test it. The key fob is not only a security measure, but can also be a convenience for drivers. For instance the key fob can be used to remotely open and close your Mitsubishi liftgate, or to activate the heating or cooling system before you even get into the car. This can be a big help in situations where your hands are full or if you're driving in bad weather conditions. You can save money on gas by running your car when you're at work or going to the store. 2. Find Your Key Most modern Mitsubishi vehicles feature a key fob that allows you to lock and unlock your car via the internet. The key battery is designed to last for a long period of time, however it might require replacement at some point. The battery can be replaced easily and cheaply. It is important to replace your battery as soon as you can, to avoid issues with remote start and other features. Your Mitsubishi key fob will have a user-friendly guide that will give you specific instructions on how you can change the battery. If, however, you do not have the guide, you can find the required information on the internet or call the service center at Sunrise Mitsubishi of Auburn for assistance. The replacement of the battery in the key fob is a simple process that takes just less than a minute. The first step is to take the key from the ring, and then locate a small slot in the top of the fob. The battery can be accessed by using a flathead screwdriver. Remove the screw from the bottom of the key fob to take out the dead battery. After that, just place the new battery in its place and then close the key fob. It is recommended to purchase a battery that is the same size as the original. This will ensure that the battery fits properly and provides a proper fitting. Once the new battery has been put in place, you are able to attach the key fob again to your key ring and then test it. If the key fob isn't working, you can reprogram it following the instructions in the Mitsubishi Owners Manual. To program the key fob, it must be plugged in to your car's ECU. It also needs two keys that are registered. You can register the keys yourself or you can bring your vehicle to a dealer who will do it. Be sure to remove any set DTCs from the ECU prior to beginning this process. It is recommended not to store your Mitsubishi keyfob near objects or in areas of humidity which could cause mechanical damage. 3. Identify Your Key Code Modern car keys, such as a Mitsubishi key fob or a smart key have one Achilles heel that cannot be ignored – they aren't immune to mechanical damage. This is why it's crucial to take good care of them, and avoid any pressure that is applied when inserting or turning them. They should also be stored away both from moisture and electrical impulses. Additionally, they require regular battery replacements to ensure their functionality. You need to be aware of the proper way to use a Mitsubishi keyfob that comes with additional features like the power liftgate or remote start. This can be accomplished by reading your vehicle's owner's manual. This will help you to understand all the features of your remote key fob. The manual will not just give you instructions on how to operate your vehicle but also how to add additional keys and key fobs. It's a simple process and you only need to have a key that is registered with the system. Then, you must follow the steps in the manual. The steps are to turn off the key, make sure the key is in ignition, set the immobilizer indicator to “ON” and then insert the key in the ignition. After this, you will need to take out the first key and insert a blank immobilizer key (specially made for your vehicle at a Mitsubishi Motors dealer) into the ignition within 30 seconds of the immobilizer indicator shutting off. This is a great option for those who have lost their car keys or just want to have an extra key in case of emergency. It's a low-cost and reliable option that will give you peace of mind when driving your Mitsubishi. You can do this yourself or let an expert locksmith do it for you. Whatever you choose, you'll receive a high quality replacement key for a low cost. 4. Order Your Key Mitsubishi automobiles are loaded with convenience features that make driving easier. One of those features is the Mitsubishi key fob that lets you lock and unlock your vehicle from the distance. There may be a time that your Mitsubishi key fob stops functioning, or has issues connecting to your vehicle. You can fix your key fob in any case by following a few simple steps. If your Mitsubishi keyfob isn't responding to the lock/unlock button when pressed, the problem is likely to be related to the remote start feature. This is a relatively easy fix. Simply remove your Mitsubishi key fob from its key ring then locate the tiny slot near where it connects to your key ring. Then, insert a new battery by using an ordinary screwdriver. Replace the battery with the same model as the one you had previously and secure the fob. Depending on the issue with your key fob you might need to reprogram it to reconnect it with your Mitsubishi vehicle. This is a simple procedure that you can carry out yourself. Start by turning off the ignition of your vehicle. Locate the indentation on the top of the Mitsubishi key fob. Make use of a flathead screwdriver to pop open the key fob. When the key fob is open and the battery is dead, you need to locate it and replace it with a new one. Once the battery is replaced then slide your Mitsubishi key fob back together and press hard to ensure that it closes securely. Although Mitsubishi key fobs feature the most advanced technology, they do have a flaw. These devices are susceptible to damage from moisture, electrical impulses, and physical damage.
