Here's how to replace the battery of the key, and therefore the remote control, of the Ford Transit Connect. It is obvious to say that you realize that it is discharged, simply because it does not allow us to open and close the vehicle and unless the key itself is completely broken, the blame falls on the aforementioned battery.

Following the video uploaded here, also valid for the Ford Transit Custom, we understand how to do it: You have to lever, with a screwdriver for example, on the joint of the two parts of the shell, opening this exactly in half and immediately noticing the CR2032 model battery inside.

Push this last one slightly, extract it from its housing and replace it. Once everything is closed, the job is done.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space.

Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
