What is the battery model for Geely car keys?
3 Answers
Geely car key batteries come in two models: CR2025 and CR2032, with the specific model depending on the vehicle type. CR2025 battery: C denotes a chemical battery system with lithium metal as the negative electrode and manganese dioxide as the positive electrode, R indicates the battery shape is cylindrical (F would be used for square shapes), 20 represents the battery diameter of 20mm, and 25 indicates the battery thickness of 2.5mm. The nominal voltage is 3.0V, the endpoint voltage is 2.0V, and the rated capacity ranges from 140-170mAh. CR2032 battery: This lithium manganese dioxide battery is named according to IEC standards. C denotes the lithium metal and manganese dioxide chemical system, R indicates the cylindrical shape (F for square), 20 represents the 20mm diameter, and 32 indicates the 3.2mm height. The nominal voltage is 3.0V, the endpoint voltage is 2.0V, and the rated capacity ranges from 200-240mAh.
Last time when I was driving my Geely car, the key suddenly stopped working, which gave me a scare. After checking, it turned out the battery was dead. The common model is a CR2032 lithium battery, small and coin-shaped, very easy to find. I went to a parts store myself and bought a new battery for five yuan. You can use a small screwdriver or a thin card to pry open the key shell. Be careful when opening it to avoid breaking the clips. Take out the old battery, put in the new CR2032, making sure the positive side is facing up. Reassemble the shell and test the remote—it worked fine again. It's recommended to check the battery once a year; its lifespan is about two to three years. Don't wait until there's a problem to deal with it. In winter, cold temperatures can drain the battery faster, so it's a good idea to keep a spare battery in the car for emergencies. Most Geely models' keys are compatible with this battery model, which is quite convenient.
As someone who frequently fixes things myself, changing the battery in my Geely key is a breeze. The CR2032 model is quite common—I can just order it from the supermarket or Taobao and get it done in minutes. When operating, prepare some small tools, but don't use excessive force to pry open the key cover—it separates easily. Inside, there's a battery holder, and the old battery is labeled with its model. Just replace it with a new one of the same type, align the contacts, close the cover, and test the unlock function to confirm it works. This task takes just five minutes—no need to visit the 4S shop, saving both money and time. Here’s a tip: keeping the key in a bag or pocket for long periods may cause the case to loosen due to friction, leading to poor battery contact. Regularly cleaning the key's seams can help extend its lifespan.
