Introduction

Replacing the battery in your Chrysler Voyager key fob is a straightforward task that you can do at home. This guide will walk you through the steps to change the battery in a key fob used between 2004 and 2007. The process requires a CR2032 coin battery, which you can purchase online or at most retail stores.

By following these simple instructions, you can save money and time by avoiding a trip to the dealership. Let’s get started!

Tools and Supplies Needed

Before beginning, gather the necessary tools and supplies:

• Flathead screwdriver
• CR2032 coin battery

Once you have these items, you’re ready to start the replacement process.

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Locate the Indentation

First, look at the bottom left of the key fob. You will see a small slot or indentation. This is where you will insert the flathead screwdriver.

Step 2: Insert and Twist the Screwdriver

Hold the key fob firmly and insert the flathead screwdriver into the slot. Twist the screwdriver as if you are turning a key. This action will start to separate the two halves of the key fob.

Step 3: Separate the Key Fob Halves

Once the halves begin to separate, continue to twist and move the screwdriver around the edge of the key fob. This will help to fully open the key fob. You can now use your fingers to pull the two halves apart.

Step 4: Remove the Rubber Part

Carefully remove the rubber part that covers the battery. Set it aside, as you will need to replace it later.

Step 5: Remove the Old Battery

With the rubber part removed, you now have access to the battery. Use the flathead screwdriver or your fingernail to gently lift the battery out of its compartment.

The battery should pop out easily.

Step 6: Insert the New Battery

Take the new CR2032 battery and make sure the positive side is facing down. Place the battery into the compartment and press it down until it clicks into place.

Step 7: Reassemble the Key Fob

Place the rubber part back over the battery. Then, align the two halves of the key fob and press them together until they click. Make sure the key fob is securely closed.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully replaced the battery in your Chrysler Voyager key fob. This simple process can save you both time and money. If you found this guide helpful, please feel free to leave a comment or like.
