How to start Cadillac SRX without key fob
If you have a lost or stolen key fob, there are several ways to start your Cadillac SRX without the remote. Each method has its own set of instructions.
To start the car using the manual override: If your car has a manual override, push and hold the gearshift until the “override” light comes on. Then put the car in drive and turn the wheel to move it forward. Keep pushing on the gearshift until you reach your destination.
To start the car using the keyless start: Push and hold down the door handle for five seconds to trigger the keyless start system. The green “start” light will come on and stay lit until you release the handle. Once you’re in motion, press and hold down both buttons on the keyless entry module (the one with a horizontal line) at once until you hear three beeps and see “Start.”
How to get into Cadillac SRX if it’s locked
If your Cadillac SRX is locked, there are a few things that you can do to get it unlocked. The first thing that you will need is the key fob. If you do not have the key fob, then you will need to break into the car by using a window or door jamb. After getting into the car, you can use a tool like a screwdriver to remove the battery cover. Once the battery cover is removed, you will be able to see the battery and remove it. Next, use a flathead screwdriver to pry open the trunk release button and then use your hands to pull up on the release handle. Finally, use a key to unlock the trunk.
How to get out of Cadillac SRX if it’s locked
If your Cadillac SRX is locked, there are several ways you can get out. The most common way to get into a Cadillac SRX is to use the key fob. If you don’t have the key fob, you can also use the door handle or the window controls.
If your car is unlocked but the keys are in the ignition, you can start it with the engine turned off by pressing and holding the brake pedal and turning the key to just past “off” position. Once started, release the brake pedal and turn the key all the way to “on.”
