where is the battery

 

In the key fob.

 

Use the valet key to open the housing. Go to Radio Shack or Batteries Plus to buy a CR1632 battery. Cost of battery should be under $6.

 

Or you can oder on amazon. $6 for 6 or so batteries shipped.

 

You can get the batteries cheap from eBay too.

Here's a video on how to change it... can't get any easier

 

Thanks alot guys

 

Got mine on Ebay...set of 2 for like $4 shipped.

 

Got mine replaced for free from the dealership.

 

I would only buy 2 or 3. I bought a pack of 6 and after several years I'm on the last 2 or so and they seem to go out a lot faster now.

 

I just brought mine to dealer let them do all the work lol

 

what's funny is for as many stories as I've seen from folks who got it done free by the dealer you see just as many report the dealer charged em some stupidly high amount for it (Like $30-60 bucks, for a $2 part that takes like 60 seconds to replace)

 

I had just bought the car and it died like the next day so i brought back to them...

 

This reminded me that I needed to order new ones for both keys. $6 for a 5 pack on amazon.

 

Technically speaking, I would recommend wearing an Electro Static Discharge (ESD) band. It is possible to zap the components on the circuit board. I don't wear one but I recommend you do. Do as I say not as I do!

 

how much does dealer charge for a battery change?
