Dead Coin Battery

The most common reason your 500 key fob will not work is an inactive battery. Modern key fobs have a very limited range of operation, and must be within only a few feet from the vehicle to operate. If you are far from your vehicle, and you press the key fob button the car will not respond, and will display an "Key Fob Not Detected" message in the instrument cluster.

If this happens, replace the battery of your coin cell (Part number CR2032) with a fresh one from a reputable manufacturer like Panasonic, Duracell, or Energizer. You can usually find them in your local hardware store, or online.

You can test the battery on your coin-cell by pressing the buttons while you are standing close to your Fiat 500. The parking lights should flash and the key fob should operate the lock and unlock switch.

If the fob's remote doesn't work after replacing the battery, it might have water damage that stops it from connecting to the receiver module inside your vehicle. Water damage can occur in a variety of ways, such as an easy splash or submerging the key fob into saltwater at the beach. If you suspect your fob was exposed to water, try putting it in a dry rice bag to draw the moisture out. If this isn't working, you'll need to have the fob reprogrammed either by an auto locksmith or dealer.

Water Damage

While the fob comes with rubber seals to keep water from the electronic chip inside the device, submerging it into the ocean or washing it in a machine can cause water damage. Saltwater can cause the circuit board to become shorted and eventually cease to function. It's not good to get the fob wet, but don't give it up if you accidentally drop it in water or forget to take it out of your pocket.

First take the battery off the fob. Clean the electronic chip using isopropyl alcohol or a similar product and then dry it completely before replacing the battery. Next test the fob to see if it works. If the key does not function, it may have to be reprogrammed. This is usually done by an auto locksmith or dealer.

Receiver Module Issues

One of the main reasons why your 500 key fob won't be functioning is because it's out of range. The remote typically has 30 feet of range or less, and if it's too far from your vehicle, it won't respond to your commands. This can easily be resolved by moving closer to your vehicle until it starts responding.

If you've replaced your coin battery (commonly known as"button" or "button" or "watch") and your fob doesn't function, it could have an internal circuit board problem. In most cases, reprogramming the fob will resolve this problem. You can find the steps for most vehicles on YouTube or in the owner's guide.

It's possible that you need to replace the metal clips that keep the battery of your coin in place. If they lose tension it could prevent the coin battery from being properly seated, and this will cause your remote to malfunction.

Interference

This is possible when the key fob is near a radio transmitter (cell phones and radar detectors) or any other source of electromagnetic radiation. The key fob may not function because of a weak connection with the buttons or water damage, or damage to the internal chips.

If your key fob suddenly stopped working, or if you have tried everything at home to fix it (e.g. battery replacement, reprogramming and using the spare key fob, you might have a malfunctioning receiver module on your 500. The receiver module is located under the dash and picks up the radio frequency signals from the key fob. It converts them into electronic commands that the vehicle interprets.
