The steps to replace the battery of Wuling Hongguang S car key are as follows: 1. Prepare a new battery: Get a new battery of the same model as the old key battery and the necessary tools. 2. Remove the mechanical key and pry open the key shell: Press the button of the mechanical key on the remote key and take out the mechanical key. Hold the mechanical key end with your right hand, with the remote key logo facing upwards, and use your left thumb to pry upwards at the middle seam of the remote key to open one end of the battery cover. 3. Remove the old battery and replace it with the new one: Insert a tool into the notch at the edge of the battery to remove the old battery. 4. Install the key shell and finish the battery replacement: Snap the battery cover back in place and gently press it to ensure it is securely closed.
Last time when my Wuling Hongguang S car key ran out of battery, I replaced it myself. Using a small flat-head screwdriver, I gently pried open the seam on the side of the key case and slowly opened the cover without applying too much force to avoid damaging the clips. Inside, there's a coin cell battery, model CR2032, which can be bought cheaply at supermarkets or online. After removing the old battery, clean the slot from dust, then install the new battery with correct polarity alignment (don't reverse it or it won't work). Finally, snap the cover back on until you hear a 'click'. Test the remote functions like locking/unlocking to check responsiveness. The whole process takes just five minutes - time-saving, effortless, and cost-effective. It's recommended to monitor key battery lifespan; replace it every 1-2 years to avoid sudden failure affecting vehicle use.
