How to replace the Fiat Idea remote control battery?

Model: Fiat Idea MK 1 - Years 2003-2016
Part: Key

As we can see in this tutorial, replacing the Fiat Idea remote control battery is an extremely simple and economical operation. To do this, let's get a small flat-tip screwdriver and a spare CR2032 battery. First of all we press the upper metal button and extend the emergency key, then unscrew the screw placed inside the newly released slot by half a turn and extract the small drawer. At this point, we can remove the old battery, insert the spare one respecting its polarity and reassemble everything following the reverse procedure.
