How to change the battery in a Volkswagen remote control

Model: Volkswagen Volkswagen Various
Part: Key

Video tutorial

In this video, you can see how to change the battery in a three-button Volkswagen remote control: first, open the key fob and place your fingertips in the gap that has formed, pulling down with some force. This will expose the battery, which is a standard CR2025 button battery: use the tip of a small knife to pry it up (be careful not to cut yourself), and the battery will literally pop out because it has a small spring behind it. Replace it with a new one, ensuring the correct polarity (check the markings on the battery to ensure it is placed correctly), and then close the remote casing with a gentle press.
