I just replaced the battery in my Porsche key a couple of days ago and found it quite simple. First, there's a small gap on the back or side of the key. You can use a hard card or another car key to pry it open—avoid using anything too sharp to prevent scratching the casing. Gently pry it, and the shell will separate, revealing the coin cell battery inside, usually a CR2032 model. When removing the old battery, pay attention to its polarity (plus sign facing up). When inserting the new battery, make sure to buy an authentic CR2032 from a supermarket or online—it's cheap, just a few bucks. Then snap the casing back together and press firmly until you hear a click, otherwise it might loosen. Finally, test the remote functions: lock and unlock the car to ensure responsiveness. The whole process takes less than five minutes. I recommend checking it annually to avoid battery leakage damaging the circuit. If the key gets stuck and won’t open, check for dust blockage.
