Hey all, my wife's 2018 JLU's key fob battery was low (according to the alert on the dash). I replaced the battery and it still gives the message. Is there a reset? I saw in one thread someone says to press the OK button on the left side of the steering wheel. That works until you start it again. Any thoughts?

Edit: it's a buttonless fob.

Some of the electronic features on the JL doesn't update as quickly as you would think. It could easily take a day or two for it to realize there's a new battery in there.

As long as the fob works, give it a bit of time.

Thanks folks. It starts with that fob in the vehicle, no problem. I'll give it a couple days. Thanks again!

Might want to change the battery in both fob's. Or at least use the fob you haven't changed the battery in and see if the message continues to display. Worth a shot.
