Fiat Punto Key Replacement
Fiat Punto keys not working are usually caused by an inoperative battery. Other causes include water damage and faulty battery replacement.
You should always consult a professional regardless of the root of your main malfunction. They can offer the most effective solution to your issue.
Lost Ignition Key
If you're not able to start your car, the issue might be with the ignition immobilizer system. This feature keeps thieves from starting your vehicle, especially if they don't have the correct keys to do it. Check the battery inside the keyfob of your car to eliminate this issue. If it's dead, replace it with a new one. This will solve the issue and allow you to start your car.
If your car is a bit newer is equipped with a transponder chip integrated into the key. When the key is inserted in the ignition, the transponder transmits an ID code to the ECU. The computer will then recognize the code and turns on the ignition and fuel system circuit. The engine will then start, and the security light will stop flashing.
These types of keys are more sophisticated and come with a more sophisticated engine immobilizer system. This type of system requires the FOB to be present in the vehicle for the engine to be started and to remain in the hands of the driver for the vehicle to continue running. If G28CarKeys lose your FOB it can be expensive to replace it particularly for certain models. This is why it's important to keep your key FOB safe and in good condition. A lost key could cause costly repairs, or even a complete lockout which is why it's essential to keep an extra key on hand.
Remote Key Locking or Unlocking does Not Work
Contact a locksmith if your car's key fob won't not unlock or lock. This could be caused by various factors, such as water damage or faulty buttons. Other reasons include signal interference or the battery is dead. A locksmith will be able to re-program the key to your vehicle so that it works properly again.
Before you call locksmiths to help you, try using a spare key to lock and unlock your car. This will help you determine if there is the possibility of a problem with your key fob. If the spare key won't work it's likely that you have a problem with the receiver module inside your car.
Modern automobiles are extremely complex, and many electrical systems work in tandem. If one of them is acting up it could cause unrelated issues. It is important to determine the root cause of any new issues prior to replacing any item.
Also, see if there is another issue, for instance an issue with software or a door lock that is powered that's not working. These problems are more expensive to repair than a dead battery on the key fob or a lost ignition key. If you're having issues and need help, contact a professional a quick and affordable fix.
Keyless Entry System Problems
The majority of modern vehicles are equipped with remote keyless entry systems. When you press your fob to lock or unlock the car, it transmits an indication that disables the standard engine control unit (ECU) immobiliser. If the chip is damaged it will cause the car to not start.
If you are seeing the error "Key not detected" on your vehicle, it's an indication that the key fob's battery has failed. You can replace the button battery inside your key fob with ease, and the key fob will then be able to communicate with the vehicle's computer system.
The effects of water exposure can also affect the electronic components of the key fob particularly in saltwater settings like a swimming pool or ocean. The key fob is fitted with rubber seals to protect the electronic chips from damage, however in the event that the fob is submerged for long periods of time, this can lead to the chip being damaged and needing replacement.
Other reasons that could cause the fob to stop working include the battery's 12 volts being dead problems with the receiver module interference from nearby radio transmitters or a key that isn't paired and requires reprogramming. Seek out an auto locksmith to repair your key fob in the event that it's not working correctly. When their key fobs are malfunctioning they often go to their local Fiat dealer.

Coin lithium and button battery cells stop powering devices for a long time before they are fully charged. So what we would consider a dead battery can still harm a child should it be trapped in the ear, throat, or nose, or swallowed. Wrap old batteries in tape before getting rid of them.
To replace a battery that has died, carefully pull the circular coin cell battery module from its housing and replace it with a new one. After that, carefully insert the new module, then screw the strip of plastic back into its the correct position.
