Separate remote fob
- A separate fob has no key blade inside, so it opens with nothing but a coin or a small screwdriver.
- Find the slot along the edge and turn a coin in it. Go slowly so the clips do not snap.
- Lift the old coin cell out and press the new one in with matching orientation.
- Close the fob and test it. If it does not work, open it again and check the cell is seated flat.
A CR2450 is 24.5 mm across and 5.0 mm thick, much fatter than a CR2032. A thinner cell will rattle and lose contact, so buy the exact size.
Keep spare coin cells away from small children. A swallowed coin cell can burn the throat within hours; if it happens, go to an emergency room at once.
