How to Replace the Key Battery on a Ford Focus?

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Key

This video is dedicated not only to the Ford Focus but also to other vehicles from the same manufacturer, such as the Ford Fiesta, Ford C-Max, etc. Fortunately, this is an easy and quick job to perform; all you need is a small flathead screwdriver and nothing else. At the joint of the remote shell, use the screwdriver to pry it open halfway, gaining access to the battery, model CR2032, that needs to be changed. At this point, remove the old battery from its slot and install the new one, test its functionality, and close everything up.
