In this video, we see how to change the battery of a Ford Mustang MK6 remote control: even if the configuration of the remote control is slightly different from what the YouTuber shows us, the procedure will always be the same. We will need a small screwdriver and a replacement battery of the CR2450 type, which we can easily get at any electronics store for a few euros.

First, we need to press the button on the top of the remote control and remove the physical key; using this, we will separate the two halves of the remote control body, levering upwards from the side where the Mustang logo is. Underneath, we find the battery: let's replace it, paying attention to the polarity, put the cover back in place, and also the physical key: we're done.
