Video tutorial

In this video we see how to change the battery of the Volkswagen ID3 remote control: it must be disassembled from the side where the Volkswagen logo is located, using a small screwdriver or, if we have strong fingers like the youtuber, even with bare hands: the battery, which is located just under the cover, is simply removed by pressing it and levering on one side.

It is a common CR2032 battery, which we can easily find at any supermarket or electronics store for a few euros.

Let's replace it paying attention to the polarity and close the remote control cover. Operation completed.

We found this product that seems suitable, specifically designed for this purpose, and it also thoroughly removes dirt, grease, oil, and antifreeze salt from plastic surfaces. You can find it on the ATG website or on Amazon.
