Method for replacing the battery in a Baojun 610 key: 1. Locate the plastic button on the head of the car key, pry it open, and then remove the metal mechanical key; 2. Use the metal mechanical key or a flat-head screwdriver to pry open the plastic shell of the car key; 3. Once the plastic shell is opened, you will see the battery inside the car key; 4. Replace the old battery with a new one, then reassemble the car key by reversing the disassembly steps, and the battery replacement process is complete. The Baojun 610 has a body size of 4401mm in length, 1736mm in width, and 1462mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2640mm. The front face of the car features a slightly inclined three-slat grille design, with the lower grille and fog light grille finished in black to enhance the sporty feel. The front suspension uses a MacPherson strut independent suspension, while the rear suspension employs a torsion beam non-independent suspension.
I also encountered the issue of a dead battery in my Baojun 610 key fob before and managed to replace the battery. The key fob casing doesn't have screws; it's typically held together by two plastic halves that snap together. I used a thin coin or a small pry tool to gently open it along the seam, being careful not to apply too much force to avoid scratching the plastic. The battery inside is a CR2032 coin cell, which you can easily find at supermarkets or auto parts stores. After removing the old battery, I inserted the new one with the positive side facing up, then closed and pressed the cover firmly. Finally, I quickly tested the remote function by pressing the buttons to see if the car lights responded. A new battery usually lasts one to two years, and avoiding exposure to water or high temperatures can extend its lifespan. Some car key fobs have more complex designs, but the Baojun's is quite simple—DIY replacement takes just a few minutes and saves you the cost of a repair shop visit.
I was a bit nervous about changing the battery at first, afraid of damaging the key. The Baojun 610 key is quite easy to handle. I first figured out the steps to remove the old battery: locate the battery cover, usually with a seam on the front or back, and then slowly pry open the edge with my fingernail or a hard card. The battery is a small round CR2032, and remember not to put it in the wrong way—the positive side should face up. After replacing it, press the cover tightly. When I tested it, I walked to the car and pressed the button, and the door unlocked successfully. If it doesn’t work the first time, it might be because the cover isn’t pressed tightly or the battery isn’t inserted correctly—just reopen and check. By the way, it’s best to choose a reputable brand when buying batteries, as low-quality ones have a shorter lifespan. After mastering this small skill, I feel confident about handling similar items too.
