How to Replace the Key Battery for the Ford F-150

Model: Ford F-150 MK 13 - Years 2015-2020
Part: Key

Replacing the battery in your car key allows you to get it working again without having to buy a new one at a high cost. This is a very simple operation that anyone can perform. First, remove the physical emergency key. Then, using the same key, pry outward to detach the rear cover. At this point, you will have direct access to the dead battery. Replace it with a new compatible model and correctly reposition the cover you removed earlier. Finally, reinsert the physical key, and you're done.
