How to Change a Dead Volvo C30 Key Fob The Volvo C30 is an excellent car with a few minor issues. It's very comfortable and nicely equipped for its two front seats, however rear seating is cramped and cargo room limited. There are a few reasons for why your Volvo key will not turn. Some keys need programming, which should be done only by a dealer or auto locksmith. How do I Change the Key Blade You might still be able to unlock your Volvo with the mechanical blade if your key fob is not working. In the majority of new Volvos there is an internal mechanical key that can be used to unlock the door to the driver in an emergency if the remote keys don't work. You can even use the mechanical key to start the vehicle in the event that the push-start button on your Volvo is activated by the sensor when you get into the car. To access the blade, hold the fob upside-down with the "Volvo Cars Logo" on it. Then, look for the small black button on the left corner of the key fob and move it to the right. This will allow you to remove the cover and allow you to access the key blade that is hidden within. The key fob is easy to replace. Slide the cover of the key fob off of the key ring and carefully lift the back of the cover, so that you can see inside. You will notice that the battery is typical CR 2032 watch-style cell. Replace volvo v50 key fob with the new one. Be careful not to touch either the + or poles of the battery with your fingers. The batteries are available in a variety of pharmacies and stores. How to Replace the Battery The key fob contains a small battery that will need to be changed at some point in your ownership of the car. The fob also houses an electronic key blade that allows you to unlock the driver's door when the remote battery is dead or the keys are lost. The battery can be changed quickly, but take care not to damage the metal electrical contacts in the cover on the back of the fob. To remove the corner and remove the cover, you can use a small screwdriver with a flat head or a plastic automotive prybar tool. Once the cover is removed and the battery removed, it can be replaced by sliding a new silver button cell (CR 2430 3 Volt) into the slot with the "+" positive side facing down and the "-" negative side facing you. The blade for the key can be placed into the fob once the battery has been replaced. Pressing the unlock button once will disengage the alarm and unlock the driver's door. If you press it twice, all doors will be unlocked, and the tailgate will open if your car has one. You can buy replacement batteries at the majority of pharmacies or grocery stores. They are marketed as watchbatterien and have an identifying number on them to aid in identifying them. How to change the ignition Cylinder It is vital that your Volvo works properly. They provide the power to the various parts of the vehicle and enable it to start. As time passes, they'll wear and need to replaced. If your Volvo is having trouble getting started, or stops while driving, it may be necessary to replace the ignition cylinder. If you're lucky, it could just be something you did wrong, or simply made a mistake. Perhaps you didn't take the key completely out or it remained stuck in the lock cylinder. You can try to release the key by gently shaking it and then moving it around. Avoid applying too much pressure, as it may break the steering wheel or the ignition switch. Another possibility is that the ignition switch has failed. The switch is used hundreds of times per day, and it's no surprise that it can wear out. Typically, it will start to fail in one of the settings that control accessories or the ignition system and then it can stall. The ignition switch could fail if it's near to fail. It is essential to check it as soon as possible. The technician will look at the entire system to determine the root of the issue. They'll inspect the ignition cylinder, the key, and various components in the security system. They'll also look at your wiring if you own an older vehicle to determine if there are any problems. How to Change the Remote If your Volvo key fob battery dies or you want to change it out, there's a quick and easy way to do it. You can use a screwdriver that is flat to pry open the cover on the back of your key fob and replace the battery. You can open the cover of your battery by pressing the small grey button located in the upper right corner of your key fob. Then you can remove the battery you have and replace it with a new one. This is likely to take 30 seconds or less. You can control the remote window roll-down feature on the latest Volvo by using your Volvo keyfob. You can also use the lock button to close the windows and sunroof (if fitted). When you hit the unlock button on the Volvo key fob for the SUV the alarm will stop and the driver's side door will become unlocked. Other doors as well as the tailgate will be locked when you press it two times in succession. It's time to change the remote key battery when you see "REMOTE KEY BATTERY LOSS VACUUM" in your car instrument cluster, or if your locks do not respond when you are within range.
