Nissan key fobs can be used to remote start your vehicle, lock and unlock your car from a distance, and even activate the alarm. But when the Nissan key fob battery runs low or runs out, you’ll need to change it to continue utilizing your key’s many functions.
Changing the Key Fob Battery
Check to see which type of battery your key fob takes. Oftentimes, it is either a CR2032 or CR2025 battery. When your key fob battery runs out, you’ll no longer be able to use your key to unlock your car or remote start it. Luckily, the process to change your battery is simple. Start by removing the hidden key located on the bottom of your key fob. A small latch will release this key.
With the key removed, use a small flathead screwdriver to gently pop open the key fob’s case, revealing the battery compartment. Remove the old battery and replace it with a new one. Line up the two halves of the key fob case and snap them together. If your key fob doesn’t work, check that the battery is inserted correctly, and that the battery has power.
How Often Do You Have to Change the Battery of Your Nissan Key Fob?
The battery in your key fob can last a few years, which means that you won’t have to change it often. How long the battery of your key fob will last depends on how often it’s used and on the type of battery used.
How Can You Enter Your Vehicle if the Key Fob Battery Is Dead?
If your key fob battery runs out before you have a chance to replace it, and you need to get into your car or drive it before you can replace the battery, you’ll need to follow a few steps. Start by using the small release on the bottom of the fob to release the emergency key. Use this key to unlock your vehicle.
