How to Replace the Remote Battery of a Skoda Octavia

Model: Skoda Octavia MK 2, 1Z - Years 2004-2012
Part: Key

Start by opening your key fob using the designated button. You can also use your hands to lift the rear cover where the battery is located, so no special tools are required for this task. Next, lift the battery using a plastic lever if possible, allowing you to remove the old battery and replace it with a new one. For reassembly, simply retrace the steps in reverse.
