Changing the battery
Key with remote in the head
- Here the key blade and remote are one piece. You open the plastic head, not the blade.
- Work a thin flat tool into the seam near the blade and twist; go round slowly if it does not open at once.
- The coin cell is usually under or on the back of a small board. Keep the rubber button pad in place while you swap the cell.
- Press the head together until it clicks and test the buttons. The transponder chip that lets the car start is separate from the battery, so starting should not change.
A CR2032 is 20 mm across and 3.2 mm thick. CR2032, CR2025 and CR2016 share the same width but not the same thickness, so a swap between them can leave a loose contact or a case that will not close.
Coin cells are a choking and burn hazard for children. Store the spares in their original pack, out of reach.
