2 Answers
Method for replacing the battery in a Cadillac XTS key fob: 1. Stand the key fob upright, press the metal switch, and then pull out the mechanical key; 2. After removing the mechanical key, use a flat-head screwdriver to pry open the key fob by inserting it into the gap; 3. Once opened, you can see the battery. Pay attention to the clips around the battery, replace it with a new one, and then reassemble the key fob. The Cadillac XTS is a newly positioned large luxury sedan by Cadillac, featuring a streamlined body with a length of 5131mm and a wheelbase of 2837mm, equipped with 20-inch 11-spoke wheels and Bridgestone tires. Components such as the LED headlights and the spoiler mounted on the trunk lid showcase its all-new design style.
Last time when the battery of my Cadillac XTS remote key died, I replaced it myself. Remember there's a small gap on the key case - gently pry it open with a bank card or small screwdriver, but don't use too much force to avoid scratches. Inside is a CR2032 coin battery. When removing the old battery, pay attention to the electrode orientation (usually positive side up), then align and install the new battery properly. When reassembling the cover, press firmly to ensure a tight seal. After replacement, test the unlock and lock functions to verify they work normally. If the key responds sluggishly or malfunctions, it's likely the battery has reached its lifespan - generally needs replacement every two years or so. Avoid operating in humid environments to prevent internal circuit damage. Try not to drop the key too often during daily use, as this will help extend the battery life.
