Discover how to start your Lamborghini Urus when the key battery is dead. Learn the quick fix and more at GVE London, your luxury car service expert.

Powered by a 4-litre V8 twin-turbo engine, the Lamborghini Urus has the practical functionality of an SUV along with the power and performance of a sports car. Its authentic Lamborghini DNA, sleek design, and driving dynamics make it a hit among supercar enthusiasts all across the world.

As you might know, the Urus has a keyless entry and you can start the vehicle once you bring the key fob into the vehicle’s proximity. There is an engine start/stop button which you can press and there is no need to physically put in the key. Now, this feature is really convenient but what happens if the key is dead or not working?

Understanding the Problem – The Lamborghini Urus Key Battery is Dead or Not Working

The Urus has a keyless start and you just need to press the engine start button when the key fob is within the vehicle’s proximity. Regular Lamborghini servicing takes care of your vehicle but not its keys usually. Have you ever thought about how you will start the car if the key battery is dead or it is not working due to any other issue? 

It can be a huge issue as you won’t be able to start your car. In cases where you are running late to reach somewhere or there is an emergency you need to attend to, a dead key can be troublesome as the car won’t start. So, what’s the solution to this issue and how will you start your Lamborghini Urus?

Lamborghini Urus Key Battery is Dead

Solution – Starting the Lamborghini Urus When the Key Battery is Dead or Not Working

If you ever find yourself in this situation, don’t worry as it has a simple and quick fix. You can start the car yourself without calling anyone for assistance or without a spare key.

For demonstration purposes, we first removed the battery from the car’s key in the video. Here is how you can fix this issue and start your Urus.

  • Step 1 – Use the key to open the flap of your car’s key fob. Push the battery forward with the key and it will come out. Now try starting your Urus and it won’t start. Let’s see what to do to start it.

Step 1

  • Step 2 – Look at the dashboard screen, it will say – Remote control key: hold back of the key against the marked area. Normally, a driver places the key under the steering column but the car won’t start this way. So where exactly is the marked area?

Step 2

  • Step 3 – The marked area is a slot just behind the gearbox compartment. Place the key fob inside this space, press the car’s brake, push the engine start button, and your Urus will turn on perfectly fine.

Step 3

This was the solution to starting your Urus when the key battery is dead or not working due to some other issue. Lamborghini has made a small mistake as it does not notify the driver about the marked area’s location in the dashboard prompt.

Most people keep putting the key fob in the wrong place and the car doesn’t start. The right place to put the key fob is in the space behind the gearbox compartment.

Conclusion

If you own the Lamborghini Urus, you must be happy with its keyless start feature. Just bring the key fob in the car’s proximity, press the engine start button, and the car turns on. However, it’s possible that the key battery dies or it stops working due to some other reason. In this case, the car won’t turn on normally, but you can fix it with a simple solution, as discussed in the blog.

Just place the key fob in the marked area behind the gearbox compartment, and you are good to go. If you are facing any issues with the key or any other components of your Urus, then GVE London is the place to be. Right from detailing and wrapping to servicing and bodyshop repairs, you’ll get a range of supercar services for your luxury vehicle.
