Know what kind of control to look for.
This original category diagram is an orientation aid, not a picture of your exact trim. Use the written labels and your vehicle manual to identify the real control.
Step by step.
- 01
If the vehicle reports that no key was detected, remove other electronic devices that may be interfering with the fob.
- 02
Place the key fob in the designated tray pocket behind the cupholders in the center console.
- 03
Confirm the transmission is in Park or Neutral, press and hold the brake pedal, then press ENGINE START/STOP.
- 04
After the engine starts, replace the fob battery as soon as practical rather than relying on the backup pocket.
Important limits
- The backup pocket is for a weak or interfered-with programmed fob, not an unprogrammed replacement key.
- Keep the brake applied and use only Park or Neutral during the start attempt.
Quick checks.
- ✓If the vehicle still shows no key, reposition the fob flat in the tray and remove nearby phones or metal objects.
- ✓If a second programmed fob also fails in the pocket, the vehicle or immobilizer may need dealer diagnosis.
