After seeing all the requests as to how to replace a battery on a Comfort Access only key FOB I thought I would take a few pictures and explain how to do this.
First of all take the key out of the key FOB. You need to squeeze the FOB at the middle in the back where the key ring is located and pull. Once the key is out look for a small slit where the key used to be. Looking from the end of the key FOB you will see a small slit close to the top of the key FOB. Insert whatever you wish that will fit like a coin or small scewdriver and pry gently pry up. The cover will pop off and expose the battery (CR 2032). Replace the battery and then replace the cover.
That is about it.
Look at the pictures to back up this explanation.
. Please remind me in a week or so to tow it to the DIY section. I will leave it here for now just in case anyone wants to post any followups.
