Changing the battery in the remote of a Skoda Octavia MK3 is really very simple. Let's see how to do it with the help of the video.

Open the key and use a plastic spatula to remove the lower cover (the one without the Skoda badge). Here you will find the battery, which is a common CR2025, available at any supermarket or newsagent for a few pounds.

Remove the old battery and replace it with the new one, taking care, as button batteries have polarity, and you need to ensure it is inserted the right way. Once done, you can close the cover, and the job is complete.
