Step-by-Step Guide
Locate the Opening Slot
First, find the small opening slot on the side of the key fob. This is where you will insert your flathead screwdriver to start the process of opening the key fob.
Open the Key Fob
Insert the flathead screwdriver into the slot. Hold the key fob firmly and twist the screwdriver. The two halves of the key fob will start to separate. Continue twisting until they come apart.
Once you have created an opening, work your way down the seam with the screwdriver, twisting until the key fob easily comes apart with your fingers.
Remove the Rubber Component
After opening the key fob, you will see a rubber component. Carefully set this piece aside. This will expose the battery compartment.
Remove the Old Battery
Use your tool to come in from the side of the battery. Push up gently until the battery comes free. The old battery is a CR2032 coin battery.
Insert the New Battery
Take your new CR2032 battery. Make sure the positive side is facing down. Place the battery in the compartment and click it into place. This should require very little effort.
Reassemble the Key Fob
Carefully position the rubber component back in place. Align the two halves of the key fob and press them together until they click back into place. Your key fob is now ready to use.
