2 Answers
Sylphy car key battery replacement method is as follows: 1. Remove the mechanical key. 2. Use a flathead screwdriver to open a small gap from the side seam of the key, then gradually open the seam along the gap. Insert your fingernail into the middle seam of the remote control, slowly squeeze, and gently pry outward. Note: once one side is opened, continue prying from the other side until it is completely open. 3. Use the flathead screwdriver to remove the old battery and insert the new one. Note: the positive side (+) of the battery should face downward. Then reinstall the circuit board into place, align the key cover, and press firmly with your hand until you hear a clicking sound. After securing, check that the seam is not too wide, and the replacement is complete.
I replaced the battery in my Sylphy once, and the process was quite straightforward, mainly requiring some tools and a bit of patience. I used a standard battery model, which is usually located in the battery box on the right side of the engine bay—just open the cover to see it. First, wear gloves to prevent electric shock, and use a wrench to loosen the black negative terminal—this step is crucial to avoid short circuits or fires. After disconnecting the negative, loosen the red positive terminal, then remove the old battery and install the new one. Make sure the new battery matches the original specifications, and when connecting the terminals, tighten the positive first, then the negative. The whole process takes about 20 minutes, saving a trip to the repair shop. After installation, it's best to start the car to test—if the lights come on, you're good. Regularly check the terminals for corrosion and apply some grease to extend their lifespan. The battery in a Sylphy typically needs replacement every two to three years.
