Is the remote battery on your RAV4 dead? Here’s how to disassemble the remote and change it. Take the key fob and use a screwdriver to pry apart the two covers of the key. Once the covers are separated, extract the battery holder from inside the plastic.

Open the battery holder with a screwdriver and remove the battery.

Install the new battery (same size and voltage) inside the battery holder; insert the holder back into the covers and close the two covers. Check if the remote works.

Press the lock buttons.

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.
