Asked by GuruDCQST May 18, 2018 at 01:03 PM about the 2014 Volkswagen Passat TDI SE

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My 2014 Passat will lock/unlock doors but when I
get in to start it says “Key Not in Range” what’s the
problem?

1 Answer

Key battery going out! Place next to where an old style key would be on steering column behind wheel. It may or may not work doing that?? Does with our key after I forgot to take key out of swim trunks when in ocean and salt water did number to battery. It still works as long as I place it in old key spot. Just says key out of range when I put it in console.
