How to replace the battery of the key fob remote for the Chevrolet Equinox

Model: Chevrolet Equinox MK 1 - Years 2005-2009
Part: Key

These brief instructions will guide us through the steps on how to disassemble and replace the battery of the key fob for the Chevrolet Equinox. First, take the key fob in hand and start prying on the side slot to open the key fob in two parts, thus accessing the electronic board and the battery; pry the battery out with something thin to remove it, as shown in the video. At this point, insert the new battery in the correct direction, of the right type (in this case a CR 2032 3V); reassemble the key fob and test its functionality.
