The primary reason why Chevy Cruze key fobs stop functioning is often due to dead batteries. To start troubleshooting, it's important to confirm if this is the root cause. If it is, replacing the battery is a straightforward process - locate the battery slot on the back and swap it out. If changing the battery doesn't fix the problem, it could be related to issues in transmission or communication between the car's security system and the computerized module, or a firmware block hindering the fob's operation. In such situations, conducting a thorough diagnostic check on the vehicle is advised. This will help in identifying the specific issue, especially if it's not related to a faulty battery or key fob.
In general, if your remote control isn't working, it's likely due to a dead battery. However, if your remote is on the older side, it might be a good idea to consider getting a replacement.
If the remote control device no longer works for your 2012 Chevy Cruze, it likely requires a battery replacement or reprogramming.
