Replacing the Key Battery on an Opel Adam

Model: Vauxhall Adam MK 1 - Years 2013-2019
Part: Key

Replacing the key battery on an Opel Adam is extremely simple, and we will demonstrate it now. Start by removing the upper cover by detaching it by hand, as clearly shown in the video. Done! At this point, get a small flat screwdriver and pry underneath it, extracting it from its housing. Insert the new battery you purchased, which corresponds to the one removed: it is a CR2032 and can easily be found in hardware stores or large supermarkets, costing very little. Refit the cover and test the key's operation. If the car still does not open, it means the problem lies elsewhere.

Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
