Is your 2011 Infiniti key fob not working as reliably as it used to? Before assuming the worst, consider the simplest solution: replacing the battery. For 2011 Infiniti models like the G37, G35, G25, Q40, and Q60, a dead or dying key fob battery is a common issue, and thankfully, it’s an easy fix. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know about your 2011 Infiniti Key Fob Battery and how to get your key fob working like new again.
Understanding your Infiniti key fob is the first step. The 2011 Infiniti key fob is a sophisticated piece of technology, offering keyless entry and push-to-start functionality. It’s designed for convenience, allowing you to lock, unlock, open the trunk, and even activate the panic alarm with the push of a button. However, all of these features are powered by a small, replaceable battery.
The battery type you’ll need for your 2011 Infiniti key fob is a CR2032 battery. This is a widely available and inexpensive 3V lithium coin cell battery. You can find CR2032 batteries at most drugstores, supermarkets, and electronics stores. Keeping a spare CR2032 battery on hand is always a good idea for preventative maintenance.
Replacing the battery in your 2011 Infiniti key fob is a straightforward process you can usually do yourself. While specific steps can slightly vary depending on the exact key fob design, the general procedure involves:
- Locating a small notch or release on your key fob casing.
- Using a small flathead screwdriver or similar tool to gently pry open the casing.
- Removing the old CR2032 battery.
- Inserting the new CR2032 battery, ensuring the positive (+) side is facing upwards.
- Carefully snapping the key fob casing back together.
If you’re unsure about performing the battery replacement yourself, or if you prefer professional assistance, a local automotive locksmith or your Infiniti dealership can handle the battery replacement for you. They can also assist with any key fob programming needs if, in the rare case, your key fob requires reprogramming after a battery change.
It’s important to note that while changing the battery is often the solution for a non-responsive key fob, there are instances where the key fob itself might be faulty or require reprogramming. If replacing the battery doesn’t resolve the issue, consider seeking professional help. Automotive locksmiths specialize in key fob repairs and replacements and can diagnose and fix a wide range of key fob problems.
