My 2020 Kamiq displayed a message on the dashboard saying that the key battery needed replacing. I have replaced the battery with a brand new out of the box replacement and the notification on the dashboard is still showing. Any suggestions? Car working fine otherwise. 

Is it picking up your spare key?

 

Mine does the same if my Wife gets in the car with the spare.

Have you driven the car a little, giving the error time to clear itself, or have you checked the manual or googled for a possible reset option.......

 

(Would have thought iit would reset automatically tho ) :thumbup:

Quick thoughts

 

some new batteries are better than others

must be fully fitted well for consistent good operation (I've had a Dealership not properly fit a new battery even though it seems impossible to get it wrong, I've seen a battery in a door bel push fitted with the anti-swallow sticker still on the back of it unseen)

change the battery in the other key (always use it as an alternating main key never as a spare or second to get even wear)

synchronise the keys to the car (separately) details are in the Owner's Manual for the car.

 

And as others have already posted.
