If you want to replace the battery inside your RAM 1500 key but don't know exactly how to do it, just read this mini guide carefully. Before you start, get a flathead screwdriver.

Use it to separate the two parts of the outer cover, and then you will have access to the dead button cell. Replace it with a compatible model for your key, and finally, reattach the two parts of the cover.

The operation is complete, and you just need to test the new battery's functionality directly on your vehicle.
