First, gently pry open the seams around the key shell using a small flat-head screwdriver. Once the shell is opened, the battery inside will be visible. Then, use the small flat-head screwdriver to remove the old battery, replace it with a new one, and snap the back cover back into place. Below is some related information about Citroen: 1.

Here's how I deal with my Citroen key fob when the battery dies: Grab a hard card like a bank card and gently pry open the shell along the gap on the side. Inside, you'll find a coin cell battery—I use the CR2025 model. Key point—use your fingernail or a small tool to pop out the old battery, never force it from the circuit board! When inserting the new battery, pay attention to the orientation; the side with the plus sign usually faces up. Test the key's light response by pressing the button before closing the shell. Oh, and it's best to take a photo of the internal structure before disassembling to avoid misaligning the clips during reassembly. DIY replacement costs less than 10 yuan, while dealerships charge 80—what a rip-off!
