Depending on the model of the Honda CR-V that you have, there could be several issues behind this problem. The last thing that you want to do is call for a locksmith, so how do you troubleshoot issues in relation to your Honda CR-V key?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If the key for a Honda CR-V is not working, a common issue is a depleted key fob battery. When the battery runs low, the key fob&rsquo;s range and responsiveness can diminish, or it may stop working entirely. Replacing the key fob&rsquo;s battery is typically a straightforward solution. Carefully open the key fob case, usually with a small screwdriver, and replace the old battery with a new one, ensuring it&rsquo;s the correct type and inserted with the proper orientation.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another possible reason for the key not working could be a desynchronization between the key fob and the vehicle. This can occur if the key fob&rsquo;s battery was completely dead or removed for a prolonged period. To resynchronize, you may need to perform a series of actions, such as locking and unlocking the doors multiple times with the key fob or starting the vehicle with the key in the ignition. Consult your vehicle&rsquo;s manual for the exact reprogramming procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-1.jpg\" alt=\"Keys in car ignition\" class=\"wp-image-2066\" srcset=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-1-335x224.jpg 335w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-1-347x232.jpg 347w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-1-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"eager\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%20640%20427'%3E%3Crect%20width='640'%20height='427'%20style='fill:%23e3e3e3'\/%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" alt=\"Keys in car ignition\" class=\"wp-image-2066 eager-load\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-1.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-1\" data-src=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-1.jpg.webp\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-1.jpg.webp 640w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-1-300x200.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-1-335x224.jpg.webp 335w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-1-347x232.jpg.webp 347w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-1-520x347.jpg.webp 520w\" data-svg=\"1\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If batteries aren&rsquo;t your issue, there are a few other problems that you should troubleshoot with fixing your Honda CR-V key.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Honda CR-V Key Won&rsquo;t Turn<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-2.jpg\" alt=\"Confused man with hand in air\" class=\"wp-image-2067\" srcset=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-2-335x224.jpg 335w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-2-347x232.jpg 347w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-2-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-2.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Confused man with hand in air\" class=\"wp-image-2067 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-2.jpg.webp 640w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-2-300x200.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-2-335x224.jpg.webp 335w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-2-347x232.jpg.webp 347w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-2-520x347.jpg.webp 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-2.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-2\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether it is on your doors or in your ignition, you may come across issues where your Honda CR-V key won&rsquo;t turn. You should first make sure that there are no obstructions blocking your key. If there are no obstructions, there are a couple of issues that could cause the problem.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If your Honda CR-V key won&rsquo;t turn, one of the first areas that you should look at is your ignition switch. Because your car relies on the ignition switch to turn the car on if the connection to the switch or the switch itself is bad, your car won&rsquo;t turn on.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ignition switch issues don&rsquo;t appear suddenly. Usually, when you experience an ignition switch issue, you will notice that certain features of your Honda CR-V don&rsquo;t work. If allowed to progress, an ignition switch will damage your ignition.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There could also be an issue with your ignition lock cylinder. Your ignition lock cylinder is the part of your Honda CR-V where your key is. Damage to this part of your car means that the key has little to no ability to function. If you are having difficulty inserting your key, avoid jamming or wiggling it into the ignition switch. This could cause further damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Especially when it comes to cars that have higher mileage, you may need to replace your ignition switch. Cars that do not have keyless entry get a lot of wear and tear on their ignition switches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Honda CR-V Key Won&rsquo;t Open\/Unlock Doors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-3.jpg\" alt=\"Hand pulling on car door handle\" class=\"wp-image-2068\" srcset=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-3.jpg 640w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-3-335x224.jpg 335w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-3-347x232.jpg 347w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-3-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-3.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Hand pulling on car door handle\" class=\"wp-image-2068 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-3.jpg.webp 640w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-3-300x200.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-3-335x224.jpg.webp 335w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-3-347x232.jpg.webp 347w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-3-520x347.jpg.webp 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-3.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-3\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you go to unlock your Honda CR-V with your keyless entry and it doesn&rsquo;t open, the problem is most likely related to the battery or faulty wiring in the keyfob itself. If you have a key entry, however, and are not attempting to use your keyfob there are a few things you should check.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If your Honda CR-V key won&rsquo;t unlock your doors, the first step you should take is to check the locks themselves. There is a chance that debris is getting in the way of your key entering. You should also use a dry lubricant on your lock. Spray the lock and see if that helps with unlocking your door.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember to never force your key. If you do, you could end up with a broken key or lock.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If there is nothing wrong with the lock there could be a problem with the lock switch. This is the mechanism that engages when you turn the key. You can access it by removing the inside door panel of the door that you are having issues with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Honda CR-V Key Not Coming Out\/Stuck<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-4.jpg\" alt=\"Single key in car ignition\" class=\"wp-image-2069\" srcset=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-4.jpg 640w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-4-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-4-335x224.jpg 335w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-4-347x232.jpg 347w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-4-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-4.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Single key in car ignition\" class=\"wp-image-2069 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-4.jpg.webp 640w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-4-300x200.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-4-335x224.jpg.webp 335w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-4-347x232.jpg.webp 347w, https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-4-520x347.jpg.webp 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/knowmyauto.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/KMA-Honda-CR-V-Key-Not-Working-4.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-4\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&rsquo;ve turned off your Honda CR-V and your key is not coming out, this is most likely related to the design of the ignition.

If you have a keyfob that you are trying to use, the first step is checking the batteries. Batteries don&rsquo;t last forever and replacing them can often solve issues that you are facing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If your Honda CR-V is not locked and you are using a keyfob, you should check your car battery voltage. A low or dead battery will affect your Honda CR-V&rsquo;s locking system.
