why are my Genesis G70 door locks not responding to the remote

Solution

1. Preparation

• Tools Required: OBD-II scanner, multimeter, screwdriver set, replacement battery, cleaning cloth.
• Ensure the vehicle is parked and the ignition is off. Disconnect the battery if necessary for safety.

2. Replace Remote Key Fob Battery

• Open the remote key fob using a small flat screwdriver to pry apart the casing.
• Remove the old battery and replace it with a new battery (typically CR2032 or as specified in the owner’s manual).
• Reassemble the key fob and test the remote function.

3. Inspect and Clean Key Fob Contacts

• If the remote still does not work, open the fob again and inspect the internal contacts for corrosion or dirt.
• Clean any contacts using a cleaning cloth or isopropyl alcohol.
• Reassemble and test the remote again.

4. Reprogram Key Fob (if necessary)

• If the fob still isn't responding, refer to the owner's manual for the programming procedure specific to the Genesis G70.
• Follow the provided steps to reprogram the key fob, which usually involves turning the ignition to the "ON" position and pressing buttons in a specific sequence.

5. Test Door Lock Actuators

• If the remote still does not work, check the door lock actuators by applying power directly to them to ensure they engage and disengage.
• If they do not respond, they may need to be replaced.
