The Chevy Cruze allows the vehicle to start if the key fob transmitter is in the cab. This can sometimes be a problem if the battery in the key fob is low. When this happens, the display on the instrument panel may display a message that say “No Remote Detected” or “Replace Battery in Remote Key.” When this happens to you, here are your options:

Chevy Cruze: Reset the Tire Pressure Management System (TPMS)
If you rotate or replace the tires on the Chevy Cruze, you may need to reset the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). GM didn’t make it very easy to reset the system, but it can be done without having to go to the dealership.
Chevy Cruze: Reset Oil Change Indicator
The Chevy Cruze has a feature that displays an Engine Oil Life Remaining percentage. This information helps you know when to change your oil. For example, if “REMAINING OIL LIFE 80%” is displayed, that means 80% of the current oil life remains.
Once the Remaining Oil Life hits a low percentage, a message that says “CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON” will be displayed.
You can reset the “Oil Life Remaining” percentage light on your 2008 to 2020 Chevy Cruze using these steps.
