Replacing the remote control battery of the Opel Zafira - Astra

Model: Vauxhall Zafira MK 1, T98, Zafira A - Years 1999-2005
Part: Key

In today's video tutorial we will see how to remove and replace the remote control battery of the Opel Zafira, but also of the Astra. First of all, let's take our key in hand and equip ourselves with something thin and pointed like a flat screwdriver; after which we separate the body of the remote control and the key into two parts, in order to access the battery trolley, as shown in the video. At this point we remove the battery and replace it with the new one, of the right type (in this case a 3V CR 2032); insert it in the correct direction and assemble the key and the remote control again!
