Replacing the Key Battery of a Ford Fiesta

Model: Ford Fiesta Fiesta 5, MK 5, MK V - Years 2002-2008
Part: Key

Need to replace the battery in your Ford Fiesta key? Let's go through the battery replacement process. Take your remote key and use a screwdriver to pry open the back until the piece separates. Once the key is apart, open the key cover and remove the worn battery: take a new one of the same size and voltage and fit it inside the plastic casing. Reassemble the remote by pressing the key cover until you hear it click into place. Attach the key to the rest of the remote. Check that the remote key functions correctly using the designated buttons.

How to Check the Oil Level on a Jeep Renegade?

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
