I think it’s challenging to live in the modern world. But then there’s RUclips videos to guide you through the process and you feel grateful for the helpfulness and connectedness out there. This how-to video reminds me of a refrigerator video I watched a few months ago. I’m betting there are so many more helpful how-to videos and this gives me confidence in the goodness of people.
For anyone where it didnt work I replaced the battery and it only worked when I put the key in the slot on the left hand side and started the car. After taking it out I could remotely lock/unlock my car
THANK YOU!!! Battery died this morning at Walgreens...I was so confused when I didn't see a battery. Me & the Walgreens employee watched your video, lol he helped me find the right battery..snapped it back together & BOOM! Back in action...6am adventures
Who would dislike this? and why? This man showing us how to do something good. Some people just have to be so negative. I like this vid. Thank you for making it. Great job!!!
Thanks for this video! 3 years ago I paid $11 to have the dealership replace the battery. But after watching your video I was able to do this myself for $4. The hardest part was getting the battery out of the package 😂
I was about to make the same mistake jaja I panicked when this message popped up about low battery. I didn’t even know it had a battery that had to be replaced bc is not a problem i had to worried about before. It definitely made sense though, how else is it supposed to work. The video was really helpful!
Thank you so much for this video. My battery in my key just died and I was at a lost at what to do and did not want to pay a lot of money to get it fixed. This video helped so much. Thank you! This may sound cheesy but I feel empowered knowing that I can handle a situation with my car on my own!
Thank you so much for this video, sir. I really didn’t want to have to give Nissan my last couple of dollars to change the battery. This was so helpful and straight to the point.
Feb 2023 cars dead because of cold and key for Nissan dead too. Your vid showed me it is safe to replace battery on my own (won’t screw up programming to cost me 350.00 for new key!) I just did it. Works as before. Got my car back. Thank you for posting this. Very kind of you.
This was a very useful video. Watched in a walmart parking lot before i bought the batteries...came back to the rogue and swapped right then and there. BIG THANK YOU!!!!
Let me just say this! When I needed you, you were right they are Brock. I had a dealership that was actually trying to charge me $45 to do this. Before I watched your video I thought they’d have to send off for another key fob,Or it was some sort of special battery that only they had. Not only did you save me money… But you let me know that I no longer need to go to that dealership. You my friend, are an angel.
you are a hero, thank you. I literally almost died bc my car locked up on the freeway due to the key not being detected. I didn't know the fob was even battery operated so I thought I wasn't going to be able to safely operate my car, then I found your video. Thank you!!!!
Thank you! I wasn't sure if I was supposed to pry it open or not. Now I know, thank you! As a tip for other viewers, I was able to use a key ring size grocery membership card to pry open the key and remove the battery. If you don't have a tiny flat head screwdriver, no worries! You can still get it out.
This was helpful and straight to the point. Thank you so much! I miss just having a key that doesn't need a battery. I miss a lot of things that made life more simple. Thanks for helping make my situation a little simpler than some of the other videos!! Blessings to you and yours!!
Mine has been saying low battery for a month and I got stuck at Walmart and had to go on a change my battery I said next time I’ll buy a battery ahead of time they thought I was braking into somebody’s car.
Just wanted to say thanks you for this video! I turned my car on one day and it gave me a low car key battery warning and freaked me out. Went to purchase batteries and watched this in store to make sure I bought the correct ones, got home and replaced battery myself. No more living in fear of my car key battery dying! Much appreciated :)
This was extremely helpful! Thank you so much! My battery was dead, but I had absolutely no idea how to change it... or even what battery it was supposed to take (though, mine was a 2025, not 2032)... either way, thank you! I don't know why they need to make these things so complicated... and the dealership never even told me how to do it!
Thank you so much! If I had called my local Nissan dealership, they would've probably charged me for a new fob considering all my past dealings with them! And I love that you call the pop-out key a shank, lol, I thought I was the only one! Great video!
Thank you sooooo much! This morning my car was flashing no key and the last few days it was not locking properly. I finally realized it was the battery. I didn’t want to get ripped off from the dealership like times past, so I can on RUclips and found your video. Thanks for your quick, simple and clear instructions. I’m on my way to Walgreens to do it myself 😊 and save time and money!!
Thanks a million. I was pretty sure I was going to break the fob if I didn’t have this video. They could have at least given the fob an obvious design for opening the battery compartment, but instead it’s complicated and expensive to replace. I wish new cars were more simple. You’re a life saver. THANKS!!!
@@HowToCarGuy hey, my pleasure! I just checked back and I see you’ve got 100k by now. Congrats!!! That’s awesome. And thanks again for saving my key(from me). 😄
Thank you for this video! This is my first car with a battery key and I was so worried I'd have to take it somewhere to get on the road. But not even three minutes of my time was enough to fix it with my own two hands! Really appreciate you putting this out here.
I’ve been putting off getting my battery replaced bc I didn’t think I had the time or money to go to the dealer to get it fixed…this took me literally minutes! Just took a while to get the top off bc I was being extra careful not wanting to damage or crack it but once it popped open it was easy sailing! Thank you for this vid! No more having to pull the actual key out or manually locking the doors lol.
Thanks for making this video. Some dealerships are vultures with how much they charge to just replace a battery. You saved me a lot of money so thank you!
Thank you!!! Soon after I got the car a few years ago, the dealer told me there was NO battery and I needed a new key fob! Thankfully the car was still under warranty or else it would of cost me dearly! Three years later, the car kept telling me "low key battery" and lately hasn't wanted to start right away. Thank you for saving me a 70 mile trip into the nearest dealer!
@Flip DaScript I haven't changed the battery yet but it's low. So I'm researching but I had the feeling because it's a key fob and programed to the car that once I change the battery it would reset. Did the dealer say they have to program the key again?
HUGE thanks for the simple, effective video. My wife now thinks she married a handyman/genius thanks to me following your instructions to fix her low-battery-level key fob. TY TY TY!!
Thank you so much!! My dad kept on telling me he’d fix it when he had time, but after waiting a couple days I did it myself thanks to you!! Thank you so much for your assistance :)
I happen to have this type of battery just today because I bought a pair to use one on my scale hahaha and guess what I just did as I watch this video. I ran to my drawer and it was the same type of battery. In a minute I did this and my car key works now!!!! Thank you!!!
Seen this after I purchased a new $165 car battery for my daughters Versa. It was the dead battery on her key fob the whole time! Thank you, your video was very useful!
Thank you so much for sharing this video! Just changed the battery in my remote for the first time, and your instructions were very easy to follow. Thanks again!
Excellent video!!!! PERFECT! Before I discovered this video there was another video from some other gentleman who showed you how to change a battery in the same fob. In that video you had to practically dismantle the entire Fob, I had miniature pressure springs popping out of everywhere and rolling on the floor. Trying to figure out how it went back together and keeping it lined up perfectly. All the while I'm trying to figure how NOT to tell my wife I destroyed a $100 Fob. Yikes! I guess what I'm trying to say is...it pays to watch more than one video on a subject before jumping in.
Thanks! Wife’s car wouldn’t start this morning, and she was running late so she took my car. Her break was stiff and she got a key light symbol on the dash. I went back and used the key fob to tap the push button so the sensors were closer and the car started and then the breaks worked. You have to push the break to start the car but the battery in the key fob was low so he sensor wasn’t telling the car to release the break vacuum so they were stiff. Watched this video and you said to do the same thing so I now confirmed the battery in the key fob was bad. She drives a Nissan Versa Note 2018. It has a CR2025 installed. I have the same car but 2017 with a real key and upgraded rim size etc. Thanks for this video! Unfortunately I only have CR2032 laying around so I’ll have to make a quick trip to the store..
BTW, the CR2032 are exactly the same diameter and volt. They vary slightly in thickness. If it fits it will work and in our case, it fit. The battery was almost flush before snapping the circuit board side so I knew it wouldn't be an issue long term. What I mean is you don't want the thickness difference to bend the board once snapped together. Anyways, soon as I got to the car, it released the break vacuum so I knew it was working just fine. Hope this helps someone.
@@VocalCovers123 There’s a thing called auto correct. Please forgive me for I have sinned. It appears my time has come.. The spell check police have come for me 😆
THANK YOU FOR SHOWING HOW TO DO THIS!!! I am currently driving my brother's nissan. The car has been saying for a while that the battery needs to be changed, but I didn't know how. Now I know how. THANKS!
wow, didn't know it could be so simple. Thank you so much for making this video. I was starting to stress about it when I saw the low battery indicator on my dashboard.
Thank you so much for your help…I was stuck, couldn’t get in my car and then once I discovered the hidden key I then couldn’t start the car lol your video helped me massively and saved me money rather than going to a dealership and getting robbed 😜 thanks again!
Watched this video on my way to work. Stopped by a CVS and grabbed a Duracell 2032 battery. Used my knife to pry open apart the key fob. Took out the old battery and inserted the new battery. Done. Thanks @HowToCarGuy! Note: Duracell uses has a different prefix infront of 2032 so it is DL 2032. The factory ones are CR 2032. They're the same and it is just difference in naming and made by different companies.
SWEET! I am so glad this helped you and it was easy to follow. I especially like how you were able to get it done before you even got to work! Also, thanks for the heads up about the Duracell battery - very helpful! Brock
Thank you for this video! The dealership was gonna change mine last time I took the car in and they definitely didn't and I couldn't figure out where to safely pry the key apart. Successfully got the battery changed and now I know how for next time! Thanks!
Thank you. Just recently got a key battery warning on my Altima. I figured it would be an expensive, tedious fix. Guess it isn't. Got an 8 pack of the batteries coming in from Amazon for under 6 bucks.
This helped my dad and I so much! I’m a daddy’s girl that had a leftover remote for my guitar tuner, but even he didn’t know the process of key fobs-he’s so used to physical keys, and my condescending car electric mechanic brother-in-law was out of state. Thanks again!
Thank you so much for making this video!!! You helped me today because I couldn't figure it where to put the battery after I removed the key. Thanks!!!
Thanks! I got stuck at work for 45 minutes couldn’t start my car because “low battery” but I repeatedly press the “start” button over & over again finally my car started & I hauled my ass home lol but I’m changing them today ASAP.
This really did help - thank you! I’d add, though, that you have to get the battery in & “seated” just right or it won’t work. I did this whole process & when it still didn’t work with new battery I was afraid my fob was the problem. After taking the battery out & looking more closely I could see there’s a perfect cradle that holds it in. After re- inserting battery all the as good ☺️
Thank you sir. this is a very instructive video and I'm sure it will save me a lot of money not taking it to the dealer or someone else that would charge a lot for changing a battery.
Super duper clear instructions! The message appeared on my dash. I followed your video. Luckily I had a screwdriver with a small enough head to fit into those tiny slots. Thanks for posting it. My 2015 Nissan Rogue is ready to go.
Evelyn Delasancha - Check Amazon and eBay. Be sure you buy from a seller with a lot of highly rated feedback and get the remote or Smart Key for the year/make/model of your car.
Thank you so much! I just got in my car and the dash alerted low battery. This is my first push start car, so I had a mini panic attack. You video was straight forward. I’m going to head to ACE and get a few batteries.
Thank you so much! I'm going to have to try it now. My key would stop working for a few days, and then start working again. After the third time, I decided to finally change the batteries. Your video was very simple to follow. At first I didn't even know how to get the key out. 😂 GOD bless you and only Yahusha saves.
Thanks for this video. I wish i watched it before buying the battery my owners manual says to get, since I opened the keyfob and found a CR2032 in there instead of the CR1620 that my manual says I need (and bought).
THANK YOU!! I had a Versa years ago and thought it was something like this, but couldn't remember exactly what I did to replace the battery. Mum's fob died for her new Kicks, and I was having a helluva a time. You're awesome! 👍
I've been starting it by pressing it up against the push start button but that'll be over pretty soon, thank you for the simple and easy to follow video

So cool! I'm glad I was able to help!!
Thank you for this video! The dealership was gonna change mine last time I took the car in and they definitely didn't and I couldn't figure out where to safely pry the key apart. Successfully got the battery changed and now I know how for next time! Thanks!
Great to hear! So glad I could help!!
Thank you. Just recently got a key battery warning on my Altima. I figured it would be an expensive, tedious fix. Guess it isn't. Got an 8 pack of the batteries coming in from Amazon for under 6 bucks.
That's awesome! Glad I could help!
Very informative video, Thank you so much, God bless you. I will go to Walmart and buy this battery tomorrow.
My local dealer wanted to charge me $180 to do that. Pfft I’ll do it myself
l0l
Batteries is like 5 bucks for 5 of them lol
That would be the largest rip off in the history of mankind.
@@Darkest_Soul_187 Guess you aren't familiar with US Healthcare.
You sure they didn't understand what you were saying and thought you wanted a whole new key fog and get it programmed?
This helped my dad and I so much! I’m a daddy’s girl that had a leftover remote for my guitar tuner, but even he didn’t know the process of key fobs-he’s so used to physical keys, and my condescending car electric mechanic brother-in-law was out of state. Thanks again!
Thank you!!! More simple and easier than I thought! Finally and did it all by myself with this tutorial ☺️
Excellent! I knew you could do it!!!
I don't understand how anyone can "dislike" this video. Even for a klutz like me, it was quick and easy just like he showed it.
Super! Thank you so much for your feedback!!! 😎😎
Thank you! very much on my way to the store now to purchase a new battery. This SAVED me from asking Nissan.👍🏽😊👍🏽
Awesome!
Thank you so much for making this video!!! You helped me today because I couldn't figure it where to put the battery after I removed the key. Thanks!!!
You're welcome!!

Awesome video. I noticed my key taking awhile to start and figured battery was going dead. Watched your video and problem solved.
Excellent! Glad I could help you!!
Always when trying to find out something, go to youtube...someone somewhere had to do it and will post a tutorial.
Thank you!!!!!!! Saved me a trip and the expense of going to a battery specialty place!
Thank you so much! You saved me a trip to Nissan!
Saved me a trip to the dealer! Thanks so much!
You're welcome!
Thanks! I got stuck at work for 45 minutes couldn’t start my car because “low battery” but I repeatedly press the “start” button over & over again finally my car started & I hauled my ass home lol but I’m changing them today ASAP.
Excellent! Thank you for the positive feedback, my friend!
Just changed my battery. MANY THANKS for your clear, easy tutorial. Two thumbs up, high five!
I love high fives! Right back at ya girl!!!
Thank you so much! I did it and work perfectly! I don't understand the thumbs down simple instructions👏
Awesome! Super glad this helped you!
This really did help - thank you! I’d add, though, that you have to get the battery in & “seated” just right or it won’t work. I did this whole process & when it still didn’t work with new battery I was afraid my fob was the problem. After taking the battery out & looking more closely I could see there’s a perfect cradle that holds it in. After re- inserting battery all the as good ☺️
thanks, I followed your exact instructions, did not make a single scratch on my key :)
Nirav Patel AWESOME! Thanks for the feedback!

HowToCarGuy thank you
+tony p You're welcome! Thank you for stopping by!
Thank you so much for getting straight to the point. Because of this video, I was able to effortlessly change my battery.
Thanks for the video, it was just what I needed in order to replace the battery!
Awesome! I'm glad it helped!
thank you sir ! i did it along with you and it also took me 2 minutes and 35 ! very much appreciate the tutorial
Yesssss! So glad I could help you out my friend! Thank you for the positive feedback!
Thank you very much homie. It’s annoying having a low key battery
so i touched the part on the key fob that it said, "do not touch" I only touched it for a brief second, will it be alright?
Thank you sir. this is a very instructive video and I'm sure it will save me a lot of money not taking it to the dealer or someone else that would charge a lot for changing a battery.
Super duper clear instructions! The message appeared on my dash. I followed your video. Luckily I had a screwdriver with a small enough head to fit into those tiny slots. Thanks for posting it. My 2015 Nissan Rogue is ready to go.
Thanks for the vid! Worked just fine for me! No reprogramming necessary, and I took the time to blow out the pocket lint from the inside. Good as new.
instructions straight to point. replaced my batteries on 2 key fobs. work beautifully now. thanks a million for your helpful tutorial.
Appreciate the video it saved me a whole lot of time and effort
You're welcome! Thanks for stopping by!
Thank u so much. This helped me . Appreciate you taking time to make this video to help people you don't even know !!
I’m a girl. I followed your video step by step and did it. Thank you!
Sara Jarvis do you know where i can buy a key and how much they cost?
Evelyn Delasancha - Check Amazon and eBay. Be sure you buy from a seller with a lot of highly rated feedback and get the remote or Smart Key for the year/make/model of your car.
Thank you so much! I just got in my car and the dash alerted low battery. This is my first push start car, so I had a mini panic attack. You video was straight forward. I’m going to head to ACE and get a few batteries.
worked like a charm. thanks Homeboy
+DENOEHONER Awesome! I'm glad it helped!!! Thank you for the positive feedback!

Thank you so much! I'm going to have to try it now. My key would stop working for a few days, and then start working again. After the third time, I decided to finally change the batteries. Your video was very simple to follow. At first I didn't even know how to get the key out. 😂
GOD bless you and only Yahusha saves.
Thanks for this video. I wish i watched it before buying the battery my owners manual says to get, since I opened the keyfob and found a CR2032 in there instead of the CR1620 that my manual says I need (and bought).
You’re welcome. Glad I could help!
Thank you car guy, you save me a lot of time.
Kudos man. It worked perfectly. The fob is working as good as new.
Thank you, you just saved me $20
+Crystal Horton SWEET! Thank you for the feedback!
@@HowToCarGuy u save me more then 100 😭❤❤❤❤
THANK YOU!! I had a Versa years ago and thought it was something like this, but couldn't remember exactly what I did to replace the battery. Mum's fob died for her new Kicks, and I was having a helluva a time. You're awesome! 👍
Thank you much, saved me time and money.
+Ahmad Keay That's great!! Thank you for the feedback!

I've been starting it by pressing it up against the push start button but that'll be over pretty soon, thank you for the simple and easy to follow video
