How to Replace the Battery in a Jeep Renegade Key Fob

Model: Jeep Renegade 520, MK 1, BU - Years 2014-2026
Part: Key

To replace the battery in a Jeep Renegade key fob, follow these steps: take your key fob and press the metal key release button. Once the metal key pops out, use a screwdriver to pry between the cover and the key itself (in the space where the metal key fits). Pry until the two parts separate, then remove the old battery with a small screwdriver. Take a new battery of the same size and voltage. Refit the cover onto the key fob, pressing until you hear it click into place. Check the key fob's functionality by pressing the buttons.
