If you are on this page, you probably have trouble accessing your car. Before replacing the device, let's try changing the battery, as you may not have noticed that the remote battery of your Mini was running low. Don't worry; replacing it is very easy, especially if you follow this step-by-step guide. Extract the key and use a lever to lift the cover, which is on the opposite side of the remote buttons. You will access the battery compartment right after removing another cover. Finally, you can replace the exhausted battery with a new one. Refit both plastic covers and insert the key.
