I was wondering why the central locking on the key(buttons) are so hard to push and there is no response to me pushing the lock/unlock on the key. It happens not all the time but 8/10 so a lot. It shouldn’t be that hard to get a response from these buttons and I’m hoping it’s only the battery. It wasn’t the exact correct battery but it works occasionally so I assumed it would be fine😊help🙏🏻thank you in advance🙏🏻

The buttons can get dirty / intermittent on these fobs - which usually means replacement : there are some people who can replace buttons or you can buy new fobs complete (warning - cheap ones may have a very short life...).
When you mention the battery - have you replaced it with one of the correct size? If not that could be part or all of the problem...

So do you mean the buttons need replacing or is there some way of cleaning them or making less stiffer for pressing?– JulieJul 14, 2018 at 11:09

you can try cleaning the buttons, but some are small and challenging... electrical cleaning fluid / spray may be worth trying, if not, then replace... Jul 14, 2018 at 11:31

Replace with the correct battery, making sure the battery connections in the fob and the battery faces are all clean and dry. Dec 11, 2018 at 17:48
