Life can be chaotic. Like when you're pouring coffee, shepherding three kids, feeding the dog, and trying to calm your boss down over the phone because he can't find his lucky pen. And just when you're finally out the door, ready to take on the day, your Hyndai Santa Fe key fob stops working. Or breaks. Or you just can't find it because either the youngest or the dog has buried it in the backyard for the umpteenth time! Whenever that happens, Keyless Entry Remote is there to help you control the chaos.
Use this guide to learn how to replace your Hyndai Santa Fe key fob's battery and what to do when you've lost or damaged your remote.
Batteries are the most common cause of key fobs suddenly losing fuctionality. To find the correct battery for your Hyndai Santa Fe key fob, use this battery finder by entering your year, make, and model. Hyndai Santa Fe remotes usually use a CR2032 battery. Most key fob batteries cost less than $6 and are available for purchase online.
For newer Hyndai Santa Fes, insert the hidden key into a designated slot to open the case. For older Hyndai Santa Fes, use a thin object (like a flathead screwdriver) to pry open the case at the notch. After opening the case, gently lift the circuit board to access the battery. Before removing the battery, note how it fits in the case. Next, replace the old battery with the new one and close the case. Test your key fob's functionality by pressing buttons to ensure it is working properly. If it doesn't work, adjust the battery by ensuring the connections are clean and in contact with the battery.
To see step-by-step video instructions on replacing your remote's battery, search for your Hyndai Santa Fe key fob on our YouTube page. If you cannot find your specific Hyndai Santa Fe key fob, you can find a video showing the battery replacement process of a different remote that is the same type as yours.
If changing your Hyndai Santa Fe key fob's battery does not resolve your issue, you may need to replace your Hyndai Santa Fe key fob entirely.
The extent of the damage to your Hyndai Santa Fe key fob will determine your options.
A damamged key blade means you need to order a new, uncut key blade and have it cut. To cut your key blade, seek out trusted automotive professionals, such as the ones found here on our Locksmith Locator page.
If your Hyndai Santa Fe key fob's case is damaged but the internal electronics are fine, you can easily replace the case. The availability of Hyndai Santa Fe key fob cases cannot be guaranteed. If you don't mind not having a logo, you can try aftermarket cases.
If your remote is damaged beyond the key blade or case, then you may need to replace your Hyndai Santa Fe key fob entirely.
A replacement Hyndai Santa Fe key fob is the only solution to a lost or severely damaged remote. Brand-new replacements can cost you $200 or more. A used, refurbished key fob is a more cost-effective option.

We've seen firsthand how drivers love their Hyundai Santa Fe SUVs. As the company's first SUV, sales of the Santa Fe went crazy upon its debut, and we still see plenty of them on the roads. But while a lot of drivers take pains to keep their vehicles well maintained and repaired, not a lot of them will replace a broken or missing entry remote. They think it will be too expensive.
That's not the case at Keyless Entry Remote Fob. We offer top-quality OEM remotes, keys and fobs for up to 80 percent less than what a dealership would charge. And in many cases, we save drivers money a second time by offering full programming instructions. That means drivers can prepare their new fobs in a matter of minutes from the comfort of their own driveways, instead of hiring an automotive locksmith.
