Video tutorial

The battery of the Audi A1 remote control can be replaced independently thanks to our short video tutorial that will show us the steps to follow. The battery we will use for the replacement is a CR 2032 3 Volt battery from Panasonic.

We lift the metal key and insert a flat-tip screwdriver or any flat tool into the side space to apply slight pressure upwards to remove the remote control cover. Once the cover is removed, we replace the battery.

After closing the cover, we press the unlock buttons to check that the remote control works perfectly.

Once all tyres have been inflated to the recommended pressure, turn on the ignition to check that the light has disappeared: if it is still present, it may be necessary to drive for a few miles, allowing the sensors to work and thus turning off the light.
