24008943 Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Hi all , have a new 2017 ecosport Titanium Automatic 1.5 with keyless entry,start. If ever the fob battery dies , i realise there is a door key inside the fob ,once the doors are opened with it would the car still start ok even with a dead battery in the fob ?... i know i could give it a go now, but not sure if it would cause any problems with the fobs memory,etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 There will be a marked location (in my car it's under the armrest).The key just gets placed on to the marked area and it works just like the PATS ring used to on key ignitions.Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 The passive key frequencies are jammed. The passive key battery has no charge. If you are unable to start your vehicle, do the following. Hold the passive key next to the symbol on the steering column. With the passive key in this position, you can use the button to switch the ignition on and start your vehicle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
