The Secret Life Of Lexus Replacement Key
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 start it without ever taking it from your pocket. However, there comes a time when the battery of the key fob is dead.
You can replace the battery using a CR2032 Lithium battery (available in most electronics or hardware stores). Here's how to do it!
Keyless Entry
Your Lexus key fob has technology that connects to sensors in your vehicle to let you lock and unlock your doors and trunk, as well as unlock the trunk and turn on the ignition with a push button. This fantastic convenience makes driving the Lexus more enjoyable than driving an ordinary vehicle. However, the key fob may eventually require a battery replacement in order to function properly.
You can prolong the life of your keyfob by keeping it away from magnetic appliances such as TVs, mobile phones, battery chargers, induction cooktops and table lamps. This is because the closer your key fob is these devices, the greater power it uses.
Another method to make sure your key fob lasts for a long time is by using it only for the functions you require. You can also save battery life by reducing how long you press the buttons. To do this, press the LOCK button and the UNLOCK button simultaneously. The electronic indicator for the key will flash four times, which indicates that your key fob is operating in battery-saver mode. Press any button on the key fob once the lights stop flashing to ensure it is in good working in good working order.

Immobilizer System
When you plug the key into the ignition it transmits an identification code to the receiver in the car. If the ID code matches with one in its memory, then the car's computer lets the engine start. If the ID code doesn't match, an immobilizer will be activated, which stops the car from getting started.
This technology works even if your keys are stolen, but it's not foolproof. It is possible to "hack" or alter the anti-theft radio wave system. A thief could use an aerial antenna to pick up the signal and spoof it to inform the vehicle that the key is present.
To overcome this, experts are working on safer systems. Some offer WiFi connectivity un-detectable installation and pin code entry using buttons on the dashboard. To assist buyers in choosing the most secure security features, Thatcham Research offers a assessment and approval process to make it easier to assess the security features of different products.
If you're worried about the security system installed in your car, replacing the battery is the simplest step to take. You can locate the proper replacement by referring to the owner's manual. Fuses are another potential culprit and should be checked frequently. The replacement is available at the auto parts store if one fails.
Key Blade
Your Lexus key includes a metal emergency key blade that will unlock the lock cylinders of the doors of your vehicle and also the ignition. The key fob also houses hardware that provides communication with your car's Smart Access system and push-button to start. Although your key fob is designed to last a long time, constant use and exposure to elements of the weather can cause it to break sooner than you would expect. To prevent this, store your key fob as far from your car as is possible. This will lessen the battery consumption caused by its proximity sensors.
