Let's quickly see how to change the battery of a Skoda Octavia MK2 remote control: open the retractable key and then, using your fingers, lift the back part of the remote control, the one with the Skoda logo, where the button battery is stored, a common CR2032 that we can easily get for a few euros at any supermarket or electronics store.

Remove it from its housing with the help of a small screwdriver and then replace it with the new one, being careful, when positioning it, to the correct polarity.

Close the cover carefully and the operation is complete.
