Geely Coolray: Short remote range, remote failure or key not recognised
Symptoms
- The remote range is reduced, or the vehicle does not recognise the key when the key battery is low. [1]
Possible causes
- The manual lists these as conditions for replacing the key battery, while explicitly stating that interference from electronic devices also affects recognition. [1]
Checks
- Distinguish low battery charge from interference; check the condition of the key and spare key. [1]
What to do
- Address the issue according to the actual vehicle's key specification; do not directly replace the immobiliser or body controller. [1]
Applicability and limits
- Only applies to the corresponding Coolray configuration in the Spanish-language COOLRAY SX11 manual from the official Chilean website; the manual date is not treated as an applicable model year. No actual vehicle model has been linked. Do not extend to vehicles with the same model name, other powertrains or other markets. Scope: unknown [1]
- Only applies to the specific configuration in the cited manual; do not assume applicability to all vehicles with the same model name.
