How do you change the battery in the key of a Hyundai Tucson? Let's see how to disassemble the remote and replace the battery inside. Take your remote key and use a screwdriver to pry between the two parts.

Separate the plastic of the key into two halves, extracting the worn battery from one half of the cover. Take a new battery of the same size and voltage.

Rejoin the covers of your remote by pressing them together until you hear a click. Check the correct functioning of the remote key. Use batteries of the same size and voltage.
