To open the key fob of a Renault Clio and remove or change the battery, first remove the key blade by pressing the button on the side of the fob and pulling it out. Insert a small screwdriver where the key blade was, lever it to lift the circular part, and locate the battery, which you can lift out with the same screwdriver.

Take the new battery out of its packaging and insert it in place of the old one, close the circular part, and reinsert the key blade until you hear a click.

You can then test the new battery.

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake. Once disabled, the TRC off light will illuminate on the dashboard. To reactivate it, just press the same button again.
