How to Replace the Battery in a Wuling Hongguang MINI Key?
2 Answers
First, open the Wuling Hongguang MINI remote key. Use a flat-head screwdriver to align with the internal screw in the key slot and pry open the plastic shell of the key. Position the key with the front side facing up (the side with the logo is the front). Then, use a special tool to pry upwards, paying attention to the angle. Once opened, you will see the battery. Use a pin or a sharp tool to remove the battery, being careful not to damage it, and ensure safe disposal. Replace with a new battery, then reassemble the key after replacing the battery.
I've been driving a Wuling Hongguang for several years, and changing the key battery myself is a piece of cake. The Wuling Hongguang MINI's key back cover has a plastic snap design, and you can usually pry it open with a small screwdriver or a hard card. Remember to be gentle to avoid damaging the snaps. The battery model is a CR2032 coin cell, just place it with the positive side up. After installing, gently close the cover and press the key button to test the unlocking function. Once the battery is replaced, the car key function is immediately restored, saving you unnecessary expenses at the repair shop. Also, be careful not to let the key get wet or drop it on the ground, as this can affect its lifespan. If it's your first time doing this, I recommend watching a video tutorial—practice a few times, and you'll get the hang of it. Handling small tasks like this yourself is especially cost-effective.
