Key fob pairing

[Eric C]

After battery change my keyfob is not working anymore. It seems like it lost its pairing with the car. Is it possible to pair it or reset it yourself or do I need to go to the Porsche dealer to have them fix it? All advice is appreciated

I have to ask but did you insert the battery correctly (does the fob light up)?

Failing that, if you get the message "Can't find driver's key" then place in the cupholder in a vertical position to re-register.

Failing that, off to the dealership to re-pair the key(s).

I have been caught out previously by not removing the plastic covering the battery. Doh.

Hi,
Yes it lights up. So it’s not the battery unfortunately. The car just don’t react to the keyfob anymore.
