How to replace the battery in a Subaru key fob. Stop in or contact us at : DELLA Subaru 5105 US Ave Plattsburgh, NY 12901. 518-324-8400. www.DellaSubaru.com
Good advice helped me to change the battery. You should also advise to get a "non-child proof" replacement battery. I had more trouble getting the new battery out of the packaging than I did getting the case open ;)
I'm so glad I finally found your video. I'd watched many others, but yours told me about how to align the key to pop it open. Yea, it's now open. Thank you.
Wish I was in the US to buy my next Subaru off of you; perfect instructional vid. All the info - (including the trick of using the emergency key to open) - none of the fuzz. Good work Brian!
All the info with none of the fuss, can you believe I watched several videos and they were breaking out the tools, as per drivers, pliers, vice grips, I was thinking where’s the oil and crank case on this thing, well thanks to you got it done in less than 30 seconds, and you did a installation video in 1:40 , this man deserves a raise $$, Thank You Big Time!!
just changed my battery thank you my spring fell out and had to watch again to see the positioning of the release button but all good thank you for the instructional
Short, simple and to the point. Worked. Also the spring and buttons popped out when I opened it but by looking at the view you showed after opening the fob, I was able to reinsert it. Thanks
The Subaru Impreza owner’s manual had a different instruction and much more difficult to execute. I wonder why this is not the official instruction. Thank you for the very helpful instruction. Huge success with this method.
thank you! the key trick was a great tip. a different tutorial I watched used a very small flathead and I felt like I was just going to break my key fob. appreciate you guys!!
I appreciate your video. I do however,would say that it would help to specify the orientation of the rubber part in terms of top & bottom as well as front to back. Thank you!
Omg. Thank u for this! Caus I watched a different guy. And I was like. Ok there’s got to be an easier way than almost stabbing myself with a screwdriver 🤣🤣😉👌🏽
I don't understand why you didn't actually replace the battery. The most fun part is getting it out without breaking those tiny legs. Also, it's a blast dealing with the spring that loves to pop out and refuses to go back in.
The batteries in both my Fobs were low in my 2018 Outback, so I used this procedure to change them. With the fresh new batteries installed, neither Fob works at all. I put the old batteries back in, and the Fobs worked again. I tried different replacement batteries and had the same result. I'm not installing them incorrectly or anything like that. Is there some type of re-syncing or pairing that sometimes needs to be done after changing the batteries? Thank you.
@@stevenpower8457 That's right. In accordance with manual one should press either Lock or Unlock button on the Key six time. I'm glad if it was of help.
Thank you!!! I watched a good amount of videos on how to do this but all of them had weird ways to get the fob part to open. Glad I came across this video. This was super easy and didn’t damage anything 😀.

I needed to see how to exactly pop out the battery

Thanks! I just got my Levorg STI 2.0. 1 of my 2 smart key not functioning, no battery inside. 😂
This is how I broke the springs in the keyfob. I should have read the manual: p.11-46 (2021 crosstrek)
😊
How about showing HOW you got that difficult to "pop-out" battery. Really,.

I put the old batteries back in, and the Fobs worked again. I tried different replacement batteries and had the same result. I'm not installing them incorrectly or anything like that. Is there some type of re-syncing or pairing that sometimes needs to be done after changing the batteries? Thank you.
In order to re-syncing I pushed the Open button on the Key 6 times
@@gehumilis I will try that. You are saying to hit the unlock doors button on the key fob six times to resync it, right? Thank you.

Don’t have a silver at the back to release the key
I think Subaru engineers could have designed something that doesn't fall apart if you turn it the wrong way
Doesnt work for 2024 models. Key does not go in veryically
Thank you!!! I watched a good amount of videos on how to do this but all of them had weird ways to get the fob part to open. Glad I came across this video. This was super easy and didn’t damage anything 😀.
