Dead Coin Battery

The most frequent reason that your Fiat 500 key fob will not unlock or lock the doors is due to a dead battery. The key fob comes with an in-built battery that can quickly deplete when it isn't being used often enough. If your remote is beginning to show signs of loss in range or stopped functioning and the battery is not working, it could be dead.

Metal clips keep the battery in place in the key fob. If the clips are loose, they can cause contact issues which will prevent your remote from receiving power. Make use of a flathead screwdriver to break open the retaining clip and then remove the old battery. Be sure to choose an identical replacement battery kind of voltage, size and specifications as the original battery.

Water exposure can also cause the key fob to corrode, or even become damaged. Even a small shower in soapy water can harm the electronic chip in. It is best to keep your key fob in a dry area.

Water Damage

If your key fob isn't working properly, it may be due to water damage. Key fobs come with rubber seals that prevent them from being damaged by rain or a splash of water. However, it is essential to keep your car keys out of the ocean, pool, and the washing machine!

The key fob has an electronic chip that transmits an immobilizer system of your vehicle. This is the reason why your 500 can start or lock, however in the event that the chip becomes wet, it's unable to longer work.

You can try cleaning your key fob's internal electronics using isopropyl alcohol, or an electronic cleaner to determine whether they're still working. However, it is probably better to purchase a replacement from a dealership rather than trying to fix an item that has been submerged in salt water.

While a replacement fob could cost a bit of money, it's a lot cheaper than paying for your Fiat 500 to be towed to the dealer and repaired! You can also do it yourself in the simplest of steps. Be sure to have the correct type of battery before attempting to open your keyfob. There are step-by-step directions for any car keyfob online.

Faulty Chip

The chip located within the key fob communicates with the car's immobiliser system to ensure the vehicle is able to start when the correct key is used. If the chip is damaged or damaged the car won't start regardless of what you do.





A damaged chip could occur due to a variety of reasons, but the most common reason is water damage or a dead battery. Regardless of the reason, it is best to delegate the work to a locksmith as they can replace the chip fast and at a reasonable cost.

If your key fob fails to function after exposure to clean tap water or rain, take off the battery and clean the electronic component using a paper towel to ensure it's completely dry before putting it back into. If the key fob isn't working it's probably to be a damaged chip that must be replaced.

Faulty Receiver Module

Fiat key fobs send a signal up 50 feet to the vehicle, which will open and lock the doors (and start the vehicle in case of automatic transmissions). There are several reasons why the fob may stop working. This includes a dead battery water damage, worn-out buttons, a receiver issue, signal interference, or malfunctioning chips.

If the fob has been in a pocket that has been subject to extreme trauma, such as falling on hard floor or getting washed in the washing machine and it isn't able to communicate with the car's Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM is a security device that only accepts signals from genuine keys.

If this is the case, you must replace your fob. A professional locksmith can handle the entire key replacement process including programming a new key for your 500. They can even provide you with an identical fob that functions exactly the same way as the original (and costs a fraction of the cost).
