How to Replace the Battery in Your Audi RS6 Key Fob

Introduction

Replacing the battery in your Audi RS6 key fob is a simple task that you can do at home. This guide will walk you through the steps to ensure your key fob is functioning properly again. You will only need a flathead screwdriver and a replacement battery.

Tools and Materials Needed

Before you start, gather the necessary tools and materials. You will need:

• Flathead screwdriver
• Replacement battery (CR2032 or CR1632)

Both batteries are inexpensive and can be purchased online. For example, you can find the CR2032 battery on Amazon or the CR1632 battery on Amazon.

Step-by-Step Guide to Replacing the Battery

Follow these steps to replace your Audi RS6 key fob battery:

Step 1: Flip Out the Internal Key

First, flip out the internal key. This will expose the two halves of the key fob, which you need to separate.

Step 2: Separate the Key Fob Halves

Grab the top and bottom of the key fob and pull them apart. If you find this difficult, use a flathead screwdriver. Insert the screwdriver into the opening on the back and twist to get it started. Then, pull the halves apart.

Step 3: Open the Bottom Half

Next, take the bottom half of the key fob and pull it apart with your fingers. If it feels tight, use the flathead screwdriver for leverage. Insert it where the key was and pry it open.

Step 4: Remove the Old Battery

Once opened, you will see the battery inside. If the battery is loose, you can dump it out. Otherwise, gently lift it out with the flathead screwdriver.

Step 5: Identify Your Battery Type

The Audi RS6 key fob can use either a CR2032 or a CR1632 battery. Check the battery you removed to determine which type you need. You can purchase the appropriate battery online. For example, the CR2032 battery is available on Amazon.

Step 6: Insert the New Battery

Insert the new battery with the positive side (marked with a plus sign) facing down. Ensure it is seated properly.

Step 7: Reassemble the Key Fob

After inserting the battery, click the top half back onto the bottom half. Squeeze them together firmly to ensure they are securely connected.
