Replace Remote Battery for Jeep Cherokee

Model: Jeep Cherokee KL, MK 5 - Years 2013-2023
Part: Key

Is the battery of your Jeep Cherokee flat and needs replacing? Here's how to do it. Open the Jeep remote. Remove the metal key. Once the metal key is removed, separate the two plastic covers of the key (when you hear a click, it means the cover is open). Use a small screwdriver to extract the worn battery and replace it with a new one of the same type. Refit the two parts of the remote cover by pressing them together. Check that the key functions correctly. Operate the buttons on the Jeep Cherokee key.
