How Your Key Fob Can Make Your Life Easier
Your key fob can be more than just a key to unlock your car door. Many fobs have additional functions, like rolling down windows or summoning your car to park itself.
FB Series enclosures are designed to hold a PCB and feature a snap-in coin cell battery holder compatible with the popular key fob batteries. Key ring slots are integrated into the enclosures to allow you to attach keys.
Comfort Access
Comfort Access is a popular accessory for mini cooper owners, as it helps them in the everyday chores of driving their car. This accessory makes it easier to get out and into the car, particularly if you are carrying heavy items or have trouble opening the door with regular keys.
The key fob uses radio-frequency ID, or RFID, in order to unlock the vehicle. Contrary to traditional key chains which require the user to insert the key into a slot, this system simply needs the owner to walk up to the vehicle with the key fob held in hand. The system also allows drivers to open and close the trunk and also shut and open the sunroof.
These features can be very beneficial for certain drivers but they can also lead to issues. If your comfort access system isn't functioning as it is supposed to, there are many options to fix the issue. This includes making sure there aren't any obstructions between the car's sensors and the window or door handle and ensuring that the key fob is properly inserted into the car's keyhole.
If you're experiencing problems Try restarting your car and trying again. If these steps aren't working call a mechanic for additional help.
Remote Start

You will also be allowed to roll up and down your windows, or sunroof, allowing you to enjoy fresh air before you even arrive in your car. Another cool feature you can activate using your key fob is remote mirror control. This allows you to fold and unfold your wing mirrors, similar to the switch in the car.

You can set up different driver profiles to adjust the climate and seat position based on the driver. If you share your BMW with a spouse or friend, they can enjoy all the comforts, while still maintaining their own driving experience.
Remote Trunk Close
The key fob on your mini cooper has some hidden functions that will make your life easier. One of them is the capability to remotely open or close your trunk. This is particularly helpful if you have a large object that is in the trunk of your car, and don't want to get it up or remove your belt. You can also make use of the key fob to open or close your windows and sunroof when you are parked in a tight area and don't wish to leave your vehicle to do so.
The key fob can summon your car, just as Tesla's "summoning" feature. The key fob must be repeated three times. Then your car will automatically take off or reverse out of the parking space and stop where you tell it to.
The first thing you need to do if you lose your key fob is deactivate it. This will prevent it from being used by burglars. This is a simple process and takes only some minutes. The instructions for deactivation are available in your owner's manual, or on the automaker's website. You can also buy a new key fob, and have it programmed at the dealer, though they'll require your driver's permit and proof of ownership.
