How do I change the battery in the key fob? I've taken the key out and I'm quessing the battery is in the little slot on the side which I can't open? Is the little screw got something to do with it? Also once the battery is out where do I get a replacement? Cheers

Once you have the key blade removed, gently pry open the case (no screws or anything) & I got my replacement batteries off eBay for peanuts!
I did both my remote keys & Cobra fobs last week.

Do u mean that little slot in the side? Can't seem to open it

No, the top where the key blade comes out.
Use a small flat screw driver & gently separate it into 2 halves.

Think it shows you a picture on how in the user manual.

Or you mean the actual fob itself?

 

[djbennyb]

Bingo, cheers

You opened the fob ok, I take?

 

[djbennyb]

Yea fine, could have dug the manual out but couldn't be arsed to find it. Lol, I no the key opens the door but can't say I've seen the ignition barrel in the car? I take it there is one somewhere yea?

PMSL!
Yeah, well it's not really an ignition barrel but there's a receptacle for the key fob should the remote battery fail. It's under the steering wheel....I think ;-D

A CR2032 battery is what you need.

Yea mate I no about that fob holder I just didn't realise you could still start the car buy putting it in there when the fob battery is dead! Cheers
