Hey everyone,
I’ve been having trouble with my Kia key fob battery lately. It seems like it’s dying pretty quickly. Does anyone know how to replace the battery? I’ve tried looking it up online, but I can’t seem to find a clear guide.
Any tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated!
Hey there! Replacing the battery in your Kia key fob is pretty straightforward, and I can help guide you through it. First, you’ll need a small flathead screwdriver and a replacement battery—most Kia key fobs use a CR2032 battery, which you can find at most stores. Start by locating the small notch or groove on the edge of the key fob; insert the flathead screwdriver there and gently twist to pop the fob open. Once it’s open, you’ll see the battery inside—just lift the old one out and replace it with the new one, making sure the positive side (usually marked with a “+”) is facing up. Snap the fob back together, and you should be good to go! If the problem persists after replacing the battery, it might be worth checking if something else is draining the battery, like a stuck button.
It sounds frustrating dealing with a key fob battery issue. To replace it, usually, you’ll need a small screwdriver to open the fob. The battery type is often a CR2032. Check your car’s manual for specific instructions or visit Kia’s website for a detailed guide. Sometimes, a YouTube video can help!
