How to Replace the Battery in Volkswagen Keys?

Model: Volkswagen Volkswagen Various
Part: Key

The video author shows how to replace the battery in a 2017 Volkswagen car key. Although the YouTuber uses a craft knife, it is strongly advised against doing so for various reasons. Instead, use a small flathead screwdriver. To replace the battery, simply turn the key and open the flap on the back of the remote. If you cannot do this with your fingers alone, use a screwdriver to extract the old battery. After completing the replacement, just close the flap.
