Replace battery key

I have just changed the battery in my key fob only a month ago and I have bought a new start button for my keyless go.
Is my key battery toast or is there some calibration method to not have the message come up?

yeah id like to know too lol. Move the battery around in your fob. See if it fixes it. Been having same issues but haven’t looked into it. Heard could be loose battery connection in key.

I believe it has to do with the distance between your car and your keys. IIRC, if they're too close they'll be in communication constantly and the FOB battery will die a quick death.
