Mitsubishi Outlander Key Fob Replacement
Mitsubishi automobiles come with a variety of practical features. The key fob with the distinctive design is just one of them. However when the battery inside your key fob gets depleted, it can stop working.
Fortunately, replacing the battery on the key fob is simple. You only need a small screwdriver and an additional battery to finish the job.
Battery Replacement
The key fob in your car allows you to unlock your Mitsubishi SUV from a distance. However, its battery will eventually die and you'll need to replace it. Thankfully, you don't need to take your vehicle to a dealership to do so and the process is quite simple.
Take the two halves off your key fob by using a small screwdriver to reveal the battery. It is a round, coin-sized battery that looks similar to a watch battery. If you are unsure what kind of battery is used in your key fob, contact our parts department at Sunset Mitsubishi.
Before you start working on the battery, put on some gloves and eye protection to prevent electric shock. Remove the negative cable. It's usually black and it may also have an minus symbol (-) on the other side of it. Remove the plastic cover from the negative terminal of your vehicle to prevent electrical shorts. The negative terminal bolt may be a hex head bolt or a screw. Once you've disconnected your negative cable, you can secure it with a cable tie. Always disconnect the negative cable first before connecting the positive one. This will prevent a potentially dangerous short.
Most vehicles use bar or another restraint to hold the battery in place, which means you'll need to remove it before you can pull the battery out. The positive terminal will be colored red and may also have an plus (+) sign next to it or a protective cover. If you notice any rust on the clamps of the battery terminals, clean them before reconnecting them.
Install a brand new battery that is the dimensions and shape of the original. You can buy an alternative battery from your local auto parts shop or purchase one from the manufacturer. Put the new battery into the key fob, and snap the two halves back together. Make sure it's tightly pushed into. After the fob has been plugged in, test its functions to ensure that everything is working properly.

FAST Key Entry System
Mitsubishi Motors designs cars with drivers in mind, such as their revolutionary FAST Key Entry System. This system, when paired with the available push-to start technology, allows you to begin your car without having to open your ignition or look for your keys. This is just one of the many convenience features that make driving with a Mitsubishi in North Huntingdon or Pittsburgh so much more convenient.
FAST is an acronym that stands for Free-Hand Advanced Security Transmitter. This is basically the mechanism behind it. The key fob emits radio signals that are detected by your vehicle when they are within a specific distance of the receiver in your car. It's this key fob that unlocks your car doors, activates the light that indicates courtesy, and if it's paired with the push-to-start button, it starts the vehicle.
The onboard computer in your vehicle will interpret the signal once the key fob has been within a certain distance of the receiver to determine whether it is authenticated or not. The system then decides what level of access or control the transmitter is granted. This could include opening doors, starting the car's engine or deactivating the alarms.
To take advantage of these useful features, you must have an appropriate key fob connected to your vehicle and is programmed correctly. The method of programming a key fob varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. The car is put into a specific mode by repeatedly pressing a button while holding another button on the key fob. After the car's onboard system has accepted the digital identification code on the fob, the car is put out of programming mode.
