How To Start A Car When The Smart Key Battery Dies

- In this video, I show you how to start a car when the smart key battery dies. If you own a modern car that uses a proximity key to start the engine, and the battery inside of the key fob dies, you will still be able to start the car. I show you the process with Honda CR-V, but it will be a similar process for other cars. Be sure to consult your owners manual to look for the specific instructions for your vehicle!

My cars key has been running low on battery and today it finally died, I spent about 5min trying to turn it on and i decided to just give TH-cam a try and look up way to turn it on, came across your video, gave it a try and BAM !! It worked haha I normally don’t comment on videos but wanted to leave you a comment giving you props for it lol 🤘🏽
I'm in the same boat. I'm currently sitting in my car trying to figure this out
@@Damia_In_Wonderland my Honda CR-V owner' s manual had nothing to say about how to start your car when the fob battery dies. In fact the owner's manual -all 170 pages is ridiculously complex to understand.
4 years old, and this video saved my butt! Had to move housemate’s car during storm for fear of falling trees. The only spare they had was beyond dead. Knew about the hidden key to get in the car, but could not for the life of me figure out how to turn the car ON! Thank you so much!! Worked exactly like you said!
I’m here in 2023 thinking I’m doomed 😅
I was stuck today at a grocery store and I went on TH-cam to see how to start the car if your car fob dies and this video really helped me a lot I reached home safely thank u very much .
I wish I was at the store then I could buy a new battery shits still not working
Thank-you for your help! Even calling the Honda place didn't help & it wasn't in the manual. you would think the salesperson would show us everything but they don't. U saved the day. Granny
THANK YOU I was sitting in my car for 10 minutes and it would not start. Found your video worked like magic you are appreciated.
VerifiedPistola now that this happend, always keep a spare remote battery in your car, you can always hide it where you can access it with a car key.
WTH did we do before the internet????
I'm so glad I watched this video
My car wouldn't start battery was dead
But I learned what to do
Thanks .
Thank you so much for this video! Key Fob stopped working and I replaced the key fob battery and it still didn’t start. I watched the video and followed the instructions and it started Dodge Journey 2014. I was stranded at Walmart with groceries and this video saved me a tow and time❤
My mom had a similar in incident like this , now that I have my own, she gave me a good tip: Always keep a spare battery, it’s not much but it will save you if it so happens to die on you. A buttoncell battery is inexpensive and compact, so you can keep it in your glove compartment. Buy two if you have to and keep the other on the trunk with your spare tire.
Worked like Magic !!! Thank you !. This saved me a long walk to the Auto store !
Not all hero’s wear capes cause Maan!!, I was sweating balls if I had to call a tow truck 😅. Thank you!.
Thank god for people like you that make this videos 😩
Started car and it said battery was running low on fob. I was going to work and was afraid so I grabbed my other fob just in case the 1st one died while at work. This is extremely helpful! 🙏
The world needs more people like you!!! Thanks a lot!!
👏👏
You saved my life today. Worked perfectly on my 2015 honda Crosstour. Thank you Thank you🙏🙏🙏
Thanks man you just saved me from freezing to death out in the cold
DUDE - **Just** saved my day.
OMGGGGGGG Thank you!!!
What a great tip! I'm having issues with my CR V fobs (replaced the battery not two months ago and now it says it's low again). Something must be up, but I'm glad you posted this in the event I get caught with a dead battery. Seems to have worked for people. Thanks a bunch!
Much appreciated my friend! I knew I could get into the car with the physical key, but I didn't know about putting the fob up to the button.
Thank you kind sir! You got me out of trouble. I do appreciate that.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE INFO... IT WORKED HOLDING RIGHT NEXT TO START BUTTON...
This video is a life saver. My fob was not working and i had no idea. Car is running.... thanks.
You a real one for this video, man! 💯💯💯
This man making a video to help everyone and y'all wanna complain about the length of his explanations? That are being given for YOUR benefit? In a video YOU chose to watch?
Meagan C I had to stop watching it. And got to someone else’s page. He just blabals on unnecessary. I don’t think it’s as much people complaining as people are trying to give him constructive criticism so he next video is not so wordy and more to the point.
Sound like people from my generation. Ill go ahead and apologize on behalf of them...
I also knew about the key but not the additional chip. You’ve saved me a lot of hassle. Thankyou
That was very informational. Thank you.
You are a legend! Just tried it and it works! God bless you
I have ALWAYS been a big believer in simplicity. These keys and everything associated with them is nuts.
Smart key makes life WAY simpler. I put my keys in my pocket in the morning when I leave the house, and leave them there until I get home in the evening and unlock the door to my house. Don't need to unlock car door, don't need to have key out to start the car; can start it remotely on cold winter mornings; never have to worry about locking my keys in the car because even if I wanted to, the car literally wouldn't let me. Having to change the battery once every couple years is a small - no, tiny - no, MINISCULE price to pay for all that simplicity and convenience.
@@terrid7827 Um yeah, I remember all the stress associated with taking keys out of my pocket, and putting them in door locks. Not sure how I ever made it through those years. Am so happy my children will not have to be burdened with a key DAY in and day out in the for a couple decades. So blessed.🙂
@@dannywilliams618 🤣
My wife notoriously locked her keys inside or misplaced her keys before we bought our 2016 CRV with push button start. Chasing after a rambunctious 4 year old can make you forget where you laid your keys, or you just subconsciously lay them down when tending to the little one! In that context, the push button start feature actually simplified our lives! Now, it just lives in her purse in a zippered pocket. No more AAA unlock calls! We love it!
As a side story, back in the 90's when we all still were using actual keys, my mom had the same tendencies to misplace her keys as well. She had 10 kids to chase after. After my dad had to come bring her the spare set a few times, he eventually just wired a spare key up under the vehicle chassis for her! Now, she has a push button 2019 HRV and loves it!
Thank you! My owners manual did not have any mention of that, at least that I could find.
Very helpful / thank you - got us back and started in the car with 2 very tired dogs

Thank You for the Super Excellent - Informative Video.
Thank you sooo much!!! This video just saved my day
Great video and will get a lot of people out of trouble thankyou.
On the later civics and mybe other models too the with smart display screen it warns you if remote key is out of range and you get message like...
"Keyless remote not being Detected"
If you are getting this message but you have the remote key with you
It could also mean that the battery inside the key fob is weak so you should have it replaced ASAP before it lets you down.
However if battery in remote has gone you can still start the car, the display in your car will tell you what to do, you will see a message like....
"To start hold remote near start button"
It will also display a picture on screen showing you this.
Hope that helps.
Extremely helpful I was struggling to find out how to start
More helpful the the cars manual ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ i was stuck out in the middle of nowhere ❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you!!!
The manuals don't speak my kind of English, too complicated!
And then to find what you want in the manual is ridiculously difficult for me.
Thank you so much, it worked on my Honda Pilot
