Today, when I tried to start my Q4 (July 2017 build, MY2018) the engine would not crank and the IP displayed "Key Fob Not Detected". I placed the fob inside the center console, on the bottom, as instructed by the Owner-User Manual. The engine now started normally, with no IP warning.
The battery is really easy to change, but it's not intuitive how to get the fob apart. From memory, first you separate the two halves of the fob, then you rotate the central part that has the metal emergency key inside to reveal the battery. Maybe this picture will help?
If the battery in your 2020 Alfa Romeo Stelvio's key fob stops working, it may need a new battery. Learn how to replace it here.Transcript[music playing]No b
#1 · Apr 30, 2017 Hi all, Needs some help here This morning i tried to unlock my 159 with my remote key, but nothing. I replaced battery - nothing. Tried 2nd Key - nothing. I can unlock manually and have checked the relevant fuse on the panel - (to the lower right of the steering wheel).
I assumed it was the battery in the first fob so I changed it, but it didn't make a difference. When the faulty key is inside the car, it says "key fob not detected". The second key works fine. The key fob has been sitting in a drawer for 99% of the last 3 months due to COVID lockdowns.
Poor battery connection The battery inside the key fob of Giulia has metal retaining clips that hold the battery in position and completes the circuit. If the clips don't have any tension, it can cause contact issues and the remote may not receive any power. Make sure the battery is firmly placed and does not move around when you shake the remote.
