Battery
Change the battery in your key fob is among the easiest solutions. The key fob is powered by a tiny coin-shaped 3V battery (CR2032 or CR2025) which is typically accessible in general stores, home improvement shops, and a few auto parts stores. Make sure you use a new battery -old batteries are usually not suitable for any purpose and could cause damage to the circuit board.
Start by removing the fob. It may be necessary to use a flat screwdriver break the two halves. Fit the screwdriver in the seams on both sides of the fob, and lift the clips which hold it in place. These are easily broken so be careful and slow.
After replacing the battery, reassemble the fob and test it to ensure that everything is working according to plan. If it doesn't function after pressing the button a few times, make sure the contacts are clean. It is also possible to test it with a spare key fob to determine whether the issue is confined to a particular key. If it is not, there could be a different reason for the key fob not to function. For example, it could be that the button is worn out. This would cause the button to work at times, not always.

Other electronic devices that operate at the same frequency can also interfere with the fob's signal. This includes garage door openers and tire-pressure monitoring systems.
