2 Answers
Method for replacing the battery in a Chery car key: 1. Prepare a flat-head screwdriver. Note that the battery model may vary depending on the car model. 2. Insert the flat-head screwdriver into the edge of the key and pry open the plastic cover. 3. Once opened, the battery will be visible. Remove the old battery and insert the new one. 4. Reset the key, paying attention to the position of the inner edge of the cover when reassembling. Taking the Chery A3 as an example, its body dimensions are 4352mm, 1794mm, and 1464mm, with a wheelbase of 2550mm. The car is equipped with a continuously variable transmission (CVT), ensuring smooth shifting and driving comfort. In terms of power, it still features the 1.6L DVVT engine independently developed by Chery, which incorporates dual variable valve timing technology, delivering a maximum power of 93kW and a maximum torque of 160Nm.
I often help friends with these things. Changing the battery in a Chery car key is actually quite simple. First, confirm the key model—most use CR2032 coin batteries. The steps are: locate the key casing, usually there's a small gap or button on the back cover, gently pry it open with a fingernail or small plastic card, but don't use too much force to avoid damaging the interior. Once opened, you'll see a small battery on the circuit board. Use a non-metallic tool to remove the old battery, remembering the position with the positive side facing up. Then replace it with a new battery of the same size, ensuring it's inserted correctly without reversing the polarity. Close the casing and press firmly, then test the key's functions—if locking and unlocking are responsive, you're good to go. I recommend buying batteries online as they're much cheaper than at the dealership—just five yuan will do the trick. After replacement, the key's battery life should last another year or two, and don't forget to check it regularly to extend its lifespan.
