In 2012, the Kia Optima offers a remote start feature on select models like the Sx and EX models, using a key fob. If the key fob isn't functioning, you should check the battery, as all key fobs use a CR2032 battery, which is about $5 each. These coin-shaped batteries can be found in the same place as regular batteries. To replace the battery, you'll need to remove the back panel of the key fob. Some key fobs may require you to pull down on the back to slide it off, enabling you to swap the old battery with the new one. Other fobs may need you to unscrew a couple of tiny screws, which can be easily removed with a small screwdriver.
