Step-by-Step Instructions
Follow these steps to replace the battery in your Chevrolet Suburban key fob:
Step 1: Remove the Internal Key
Find the button on the left side of your key fob. Hold it down and pull out the internal key. Set the key aside.
Step 2: Open the Key Fob
Locate the slot next to the keyhole. Insert your flathead screwdriver into this slot. Hold the key fob loosely in your hand and turn the screwdriver like you would turn a key. The key fob will click open, allowing you to pull it apart with your fingers.
Step 3: Access the Battery
Once the key fob is open, you’ll have access to the internal components, including the circuit board and the battery. If the circuit board falls out, make sure to place it back with the rubber components facing up.
Step 4: Remove the Old Battery
Use your flathead screwdriver to lift the old CR2032 battery out of its compartment. Dispose of the old battery properly.
Step 5: Insert the New Battery
Take the new CR2032 battery and insert it into the compartment with the positive side facing down. Ensure the battery snaps into place and sits flat in the compartment.
Step 6: Reassemble the Key Fob
Align the two halves of the key fob and squeeze them back together until they click into place. Finally, reinsert the internal key.
