Step-by-Step Guide

Locate the Slot

First, look at the bottom of your key fob. You’ll see a seam with a small slot in the plastic. This is where you’ll insert your flathead screwdriver.

Open the Key Fob

Insert your flathead screwdriver into the slot. Push it in gently, then twist the screwdriver. You’ll feel the key fob crack open a bit.

Continue twisting until the key fob comes apart easily. You can also work your way around the seam if needed.

Remove the Circuit Board

When you open the key fob, the circuit board may fall out. This is normal. Set the circuit board aside for now.

Remove the Old Battery

Locate the battery on the other side of the key fob. Slide the battery out using your thumb. Dispose of the old battery properly.

Insert the New Battery

Take your new CR2032 battery. Make sure the positive side is facing up. You should see the text and plus sign on the battery.

Push the battery down into place.

Reassemble the Key Fob

Pick up the circuit board and locate the rubber component inside the key fob. Place the circuit board battery side up into the rubber component.

Click the key fob back together. Ensure it’s securely closed.
