Battery in key fob

Post by Alan W »

The remote buttons in one of my keys is getting a bit 'lazy' so I'm going to change the battery, before I do so can anyone tell me whether this is simply an old one out / new one in job or do I have to reprogram the key after? Oh, and does anyone know what battery it takes? Many thanks Alan

Don't leave the battery out for long or you may need to re-initialise it which is a bit of a pain.
I answered the phone in the middle of doing mine (which is how I found this out) and had to search on line for instructions.
