Frembrit Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 What brand are the batteries that you are using? I've read that some brands don't work too well in the fobs. I use Duracell without any problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazleo Posted January 26, 2018 Author Share Posted January 26, 2018 Hi yeah I used Duracell initially however I then changed to Panasonic with no improvement.. New batteries test at 3.1-3.2V however my fob stops working when the battery reaches 2.9-3.0V which would be normal I guess. When I say normal I mean the power in the battery.. Its a strange one 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frembrit Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Coincidentally, last Saturday, my car started reporting back that my key fob battery is low too. I've not got a replacement yet but I've just tested the battery at 3.4V ??? Think my multi-meter is out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
