The malfunction of the remote control may be caused by the battery being discharged, which now needs to be replaced; let's see the replacement procedure on the key of the Toyota Prius. First, we take our remote control and start removing the physical key from inside it; then we leverage the slot created to open the remote control in two parts, accessing the electronic board and the battery, as shown in the video.

Now we remove the battery and replace it with a new one, of the correct type (in this case a CR 2032 3V); insert it in the correct direction and finally reassemble the cover and the physical key.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
