How to Replace the Battery in Your Buick Envision Key Fob (2016 – 2020)

Introduction

Replacing the battery in your Buick Envision key fob is a straightforward process that anyone can do. Whether your key fob has three, four, or five buttons, the method is the same. In this guide, I’ll walk you through each step to ensure you get your key fob working again in no time.

All you need is a CR2032 battery, which you can easily purchase online. I’ll provide a link for convenience.

Tools and Materials

Before we begin, gather the following:

• CR2032 battery
• Flathead screwdriver (optional)

Step 1: Remove the Internal Key

Turn the key fob over to locate the silver button on the back.

Press this button and pull out the internal key.

We’ll use this key to open the key fob.

Step 2: Open the Key Fob

Insert the key into the slot and gently pry back to pop off the back piece of plastic.

Feel for a ridge inside the slot. This is where you want to apply pressure.

If you insert the key too far, nothing will happen, and you may risk breaking the key fob.

Step 3: Remove the Old Battery

Once the back is off, you can now access the battery.

Use your fingernail or a flathead screwdriver to gently lift the old battery out.

Dispose of the old battery properly.

Step 4: Insert the New Battery

Take your new CR2032 battery and ensure the positive side is facing down.

You should not see any text on the battery once it’s inserted.

Click the new battery into place.

Step 5: Reassemble the Key Fob

Place the back piece of plastic onto the key fob.

Squeeze the pieces together until they click into place.

Insert the internal key back into its slot.

Conclusion

And that’s it! Your key fob should now be working with its new battery.
