Is your BMW key fob refusing to start your engine or respond to remote commands? It’s a common frustration for BMW and Mini owners, and while a dead battery might be the first culprit you suspect, the issue is often more complex. At keyfobx.com, we specialize in Bmw Key Fob Repair, offering a comprehensive service that goes beyond simple battery replacement to address the root cause of your key fob problems.
Unlike services that only offer battery swaps, we diagnose and repair the underlying electronic issues within your BMW or Mini key fob. In fact, in our experience, over 90% of the key fobs we receive for repair have batteries that are still perfectly functional. This highlights the fact that key fob failure often stems from faulty internal components, not just a depleted power source.
Our expert bmw key fob repair service includes a thorough inspection to pinpoint the exact problem. We meticulously check and, if necessary, replace faulty components, including push button switches and other internal elements. The cost of repair covers all necessary components and labor, as well as rigorous testing to ensure your key fob is fully functional and ready to sync with your BMW.
It’s important to note that a key fob malfunction can sometimes be mistakenly attributed to issues within your vehicle itself. Problems with components like the FZV antenna amplifier, ignition switch, K/I-bus system, or general module can prevent even a perfectly good key fob from syncing correctly. While we specialize in key fob repair, we also provide resources like resync procedures to help you troubleshoot potential vehicle-side issues.
If your BMW key fob remote function is malfunctioning, and the key has never been opened before, our standard repair service is $60, which includes return shipping within the US. For international customers, the repair service is $75, including return shipping. We understand that some keys may have been previously tampered with. If your key has been cut open already, there’s an additional $15 fee to account for the increased complexity of repair. Furthermore, if a previously opened key has a damaged original battery, an extra $10 fee applies. These additional fees reflect the extra time and effort required to repair keys that have been mishandled or are in poor condition, as we unfortunately encounter many keys in a truly compromised state (key fob wall of shame). We strive to provide fair and transparent pricing based on the condition and complexity of each repair.
We also repair Mini Cooper key fobs with the same expertise and attention to detail. So whether you own a BMW or a Mini, if you’re experiencing key fob problems beyond battery life, keyfobx.com is your trusted partner for reliable and effective bmw key fob repair.
