Keyfob battery "low" warning

[piaabro210]

I still a bit confused...Over the last several weeks I've been getting the same warning message. I thought by just sticking the key fob in the ignition that was charging the battery but obviously I still get the warning message. It's not every time either it'll go a few days in between. Do I have to replace the batteries in the key fob?

Same issue on my end.....If I insert the key and drive around for a couple trips, I wont get the warning for days. Funny thing is the key still works fine even when I get the warning. The warning states....battery is discharged with a picture of a battery and a line through it. I'm not getting the warning on the second key. It rarely gets used.........Phil
