My key fob low battery message is on my dash, I'v put a new battery in fob, disconnected car battery, pushed the buttons twice on the fob but still cant clear the message on dash. Any ideas what to try next ?

let the FF sleep for a while and the message should clear......

if it doesnt it could be the replacement battery which is at fault ...duracells normally work best.. ... - .- -.

I found locking the car with the remote and unlocking it again cleared the dash message for me.

Yep tried both of those, even used the spare key fob which I know was OK last time I used it, but still cant clear message.

Just an update, bought another new fob battery today, 2032 put in fob and message cleared. Thanks for replies.

i think Duracell are the batteries of choice here. they also give a 10yr guarantee that it will work from the packaging
that is pretty awesome to say if you un pack after 10 years it will be as good as new 2012 Vogue 4.4 TDV8 - Current

Have the same issue here so will let it sleep and hopefully will clear itself. Useful system but only if it is cleared before next low battery.

I used Energiser ones. They also have a 10 year shelf life guarantee and child resistant packaging.

Duracell have a counterfeiting problem and I've been caught out by it before.

Hi Caesium
Thanks for that. I checked it with a volt meter after cleaning surfaces and it showed 3 volts etc. Also my other key which didn't clear it either. Its rested for a day so will try it again today, fingers crossed!

Add on, As has been posted above the message disappeared after a days sleep.
