Ten Lexus Replacement Keys That Really Help You Live Better

When Your Lexus Smart Key Fails

The Smart Key is an ultra-convenient feature that allows you to lock and unlock your 2021 Lexus IS, open the trunk, and begin it without ever removing it from your pocket. The battery in the key fob will eventually die.

You can replace the battery using a CR2032 Lithium battery (available in most electronics or hardware stores). Find out how to do it here!

Keyless Entry

Your Lexus key fob is armed with hardware that communicates with sensors in your car to lock and unlock doors as well as open your trunk and turn on your push-button engine. This is a fantastic convenience that makes driving in a Lexus so much more fun than driving a traditional car. The key fob is going to eventually require an upgrade to its battery in order to perform as it should.

You can extend the life of your key fob by keeping it far from magnetic appliances like TVs, mobile phones, battery chargers as well as induction cooktops and table lamps. This is because the closer your key fob is to these devices, the more power it will use.

Another way to make sure your key fob lasts for a long time is by using it only for the functions you require. It is also possible to save your battery by reducing the amount of time you press your buttons. Hold the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons at the same time. The electronic indicator for the key will flash four times, signalling that your key fob has entered battery-saving mode. Press any button on the key fob once the lights have stopped flashing to ensure it is in working in good working order.

Immobilizer System

When you put your key in the ignition, it transmits an ID code to a device inside the car. The computer will allow the engine to start if the ID code is similar to the previous one that is stored in the car. If the ID code doesn't match, an immobilizer will be activated to stop the car from beginning.

This technology isn't 100% secure but it works even in the event you lose your keys. It is possible to "hack", or manipulate the radio wave anti-theft system. A thief could use an aerial antenna to pick up the signal and then spoof it to inform the vehicle that the key is in.

Experts are working on safer methods to thwart this. Certain systems provide WiFi connectivity as well as undetectable installations, and pin code entry through dashboard buttons. Thatcham Research has developed a system of grading and approbation to help buyers compare products.

If you are worried about the security system installed in your car, replacing the battery is the easiest step to take. You can determine the correct replacement by checking the owner's guide. Fuses are another potential culprit therefore they should be checked on a regular basis. If one blows up, a replacement can be easily found at the auto parts store.

Key Blade

Your Lexus key has an aluminum blade that can be used to open the lock cylinders on your vehicle's ignition and doors. Your key fob also contains hardware that communicates with your vehicle's Smart Access system and push-button to start. While your key fob was designed to last for a long duration, everyday use and exposure to elements of the weather can cause it to fail sooner than you might expect. To avoid this, we recommend you store your key fob away from your vehicle as far as you can, to stop the frequency of its proximity sensors connecting and consuming battery power.
