I got the alert this morning low battery...I came straight here and sure enough you had a video for it...The hardest part was finding the right torx screwdriver...Thanks man!!!
For some reason I always keep forgetting that no additional tools are required and you can just use the key that you pull out. Getting the battery out of the packaging usually takes longer then replacing it lol. Great vid.
Hey I recently washed my key fob and dried it! This solved the issue. I simply opened it and noticed condensation within the battery and the board and I just sprayed it with compressed air and wiped it down with tissue. Comfort access working and car is turning on! Thank you!
Brian, I watched your video and went out to purchase the proper type of battery. All done now and everything is good. You’re cool and thank u very much.
Another GREAT Kies vid! Thanks! My car dash displayed, "Remote Battery Low, Change Battery Soon", (something like that!), so, here I am... Did you know, when you bought your BMW it comes with two stickers, "1 & 2" that you can apply to the top-back of the fob so you know which fob presets are saved for each one, seat, mirrors, nav maps views, etc, super convenient if there's more than one driver; just open door and everything auto-adjusts...
Great thank you. It worked ecactly as per your instructions. People, be firm when pressing the key to push into the slot which pops the back off and don't be afraid as it takes a little force before it pops. My little tip.
Perfect video. I figured there had to be a purpose built way to open this rather than buying a tool or attacking it with a flat head screw driver. Thanks for posting.
Dude you're the best ... I've saved so much $$$ from watching your videos and turning a wrench. Your video on changing rotors and pad was spot on. Keep up the good work.
Thanks my brother, this video is still very much relevant. My key battery is flat and didn't know how to change it but the video was so simple I can also teach someone too! :)
bro you never stop amazing me with normal questions we have daily, i was literally going to get a new battery today and was wondering how to open my fob thanks man.
Now that is EXACTLY how to do it!!!! Use this method and not other videos that have you prising the back off with a screwdriver or even a knife!!!! Thanks 😊
Thanks for this video - great help. The worst part was actually getting the new battery out of the 'Baby Secure' packaging - almost cut my finger off using a knife to cut the packaging 🙂
Thank you so much . It might not have been a big video to you but I guarantee I would have totally broken the key fob without it ....remember big things do come in small packages , and no fact is too simple or obvious that someone will appreciate it ......!!
changed both BMW batteries on 2 key fobs and both fobs fought me putting the back cover on, they didn't just click on like in this vlog....it took about 15 minutes to finesse the cover back on.
Hello! Thank you for the video, it was helpful and informative. I have a question. So my key pretty much still can lock unlock the door, however my car still cant detect the key inside… is it save to say that the key battery is dead?
Does anybody know why my comfort touch and engine start doesn’t work consistently even with a new battery in my fob? So frustrated. I have a 2016 330i. Thanks.
Thanks for the video; I just got the message today. Don't you have to re-programme the key to your car? Usually, I hear changing the battery at the dealership is so pricey for that reason. might be a thing they say to make money though
I literally did this an hour before you posted the video lol, another note you might as well replace both key's (or kies) batteries seeing how they're the same age
This video is exactly what it needs to be - a clear demonstration with easy to follow instructions and no annoying music! Thanks. 👍
4yr old video - still as useful as ever! Thanks Bryan! 👍
Right 😂✌️
100%...just used it today.
I wish more people made videos like this.... Quick, informative, content is to the point and concise ... No filler needed . Excellent job!!!

Thank you man! Got the symptoms went to auto zone and watch your video in the parking lot DONE ....👍👍👍
Thanks for taking the time. Probably saved me $20 at the dealership.

Question do you know how to dismantle the whole fob ?

After changing the battery still, I am getting a signal of low battery. Can you help me resolve that issue?
Very helpful - Thank you!
great video
Hi, My car says that the battery need to be change even if I already changed it with a new one, any ideas what could be?
Couldn't find a link to spare fob. I need the entire thing, not just the case. How does a new one get programed to my car? TIA
Hello! Thank you for the video, it was helpful and informative. I have a question. So my key pretty much still can lock unlock the door, however my car still cant detect the key inside… is it save to say that the key battery is dead?
Does the key need to be re-programmed after putting in the new battery, or does everything stay like it was ?
Thank you brian
Thanks man, this is exactly what I needed

I literally did this an hour before you posted the video lol, another note you might as well replace both key's (or kies) batteries seeing how they're the same age
