2014 BMW X3 Key Fob Issues

Asked by GuruJJD8L Aug 11, 2020 at 02:49 PM about the 2014 BMW X3 xDrive35i AWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My X3 key fobs no longer work to lock/unlock the vehicle, but will start the
vehicle when held against the steering column. This started after the vehicle
was serviced. Batteries on both fobs have been replaced, so it's not a dead
battery issue. Any ideas?

I would go back to the service garage and asked them what they changed. Most likely you will need to reprogram the fobs, keys to the SUV.
