Tools and Materials Needed
- CR2032 battery
- Flathead screwdriver
Before starting, ensure you have a new CR2032 battery and a small flathead screwdriver. These are essential for the replacement process.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Remove the Internal Key
Turn the key fob over to the back. Locate the silver button on the back of the key fob. Hold down this button and pull out the internal key.
This step exposes the keyhole and a small slot above it, which we will use to open the key fob.
Step 2: Open the Key Fob
Take your flathead screwdriver and insert it into the small slot above the keyhole. Hold the key fob firmly and twist the screwdriver. This action will separate the two halves of the key fob.
Once the key fob is open, use your fingers to pull apart the two halves completely.
Step 3: Remove the Old Battery
Set aside the top half of the key fob. You will see the old CR2032 battery in the bottom half. Use the flathead screwdriver to gently pry the battery out.
It can be tricky to find the right spot to insert the screwdriver. Aim for the bottom corner of the battery and gently lift it out.
Step 4: Insert the New Battery
Take your new CR2032 battery and ensure the positive side is facing down. Slide the battery into place, starting at the metal component and then clicking it into the top part so it sits flush.
Step 5: Reassemble the Key Fob
Align the two halves of the key fob and press them together until they click into place. Make sure all parts are securely connected.
Finally, insert the internal key back into the key fob.
