Peugeot 5008 Keyless Entry Failure

I'm getting seriously frustrated! I've got a 2022 Peugeot 5008, gasoline engine, with about 44k km on the clock. Suddenly, I'm getting a 'key battery low' warning. Now, the keyless entry is completely dead, and the car's throwing an error in the memory. I can barely get the thing to unlock or lock properly! Anyone else run into this? Is it really just the key fob battery?

I had something similar with my 5008. Keyless access issues and errors logged. Have you checked the battery voltage? Could be a simple fix, but worth investigating further before jumping to conclusions.

Battery voltage, eh? I'm not really a sparky... Is that something I can easily check myself, or am I better off just swapping the battery out and seeing if that fixes it? And did replacing the battery sort your issue out completely?

Confirming my previous post, I experienced similar symptoms. Measuring the open-circuit voltage of the coin cell battery with a multimeter would provide a quantitative assessment of its state of charge. Given your self-described expertise, consider engaging a qualified technician for battery replacement and fault code interrogation to ensure proper system functionality.

Thanks for the confirmation and advice! Turns out it was just the key fob battery. Replaced it myself (eventually figured out how to open the darn thing without breaking it!) and everything's back to normal. Cost me 37€ for the battery. Appreciate the help!
