What is the battery model for Nissan X-Trail key?
2 Answers
The battery model for X-Trail car key is CR2032. CR2032 is a lithium manganese dioxide battery, named according to IEC standards. The naming convention is as follows: C - indicates 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 (if square, F is used instead); 20 - indicates the battery diameter is 20mm; 32 - indicates the battery height is 3.2mm. The nominal voltage is 3.0V, endpoint voltage is 2.0V, and rated capacity ranges from 200-240mAh depending on manufacturer quality. CR2032 typically has a shelf life of 5 years. If the manufacturer's production standards are low or quality control is poor, the lifespan may be significantly shortened. Domestic first-tier brand batteries can generally guarantee this lifespan. Under ideal conditions (sealed, room temperature, no moisture interference), the lifespan can extend to 8 years or even 10 years. All X-Trail models including Fashion Edition, Comfort Edition, and Luxury Edition use CR2032 key batteries. Replacing the key battery only requires 3 steps: Step 1: Remove the mechanical key. Press the lock button on the side of the smart key to remove the mechanical key. Step 2: Open the battery cover. After removing the mechanical key, you'll see two slots at the top of the smart key - a deep slot (keyhole) and a shallow slot (for opening the battery cover). Insert the mechanical key into the shallow slot and pry open the battery cover. The coin battery can then be easily removed. Step 3: Replace the battery. Install the new battery, then reassemble the battery cover and mechanical key in order. Two important notes when replacing X-Trail key battery: 1. The key uses CR2032 coin battery - make sure not to purchase the wrong model. 2. Complete the battery replacement quickly as the key has memory function. If power is lost for more than 5 minutes, re-pairing will be required.
I am a Nissan X-Trail owner myself, and the key battery model is CR2025, which is quite common. It typically needs to be replaced every two years, depending on usage frequency. When the key becomes unresponsive, it might be a battery issue. The replacement process is simple: use a small screwdriver or a hard card to pry open the back cover of the key, remove the old battery, and insert a new CR2025, ensuring the positive side faces up to avoid incorrect placement. The battery is easily available at supermarkets, pharmacies, or online, costing just a few bucks. It’s wise to keep a spare at home for emergencies while traveling. Nissan key designs are user-friendly, eliminating the need for a repair shop. Remember to choose reputable brands like Panasonic or Sony to avoid low-quality batteries that may leak and damage the circuit. If the issue persists after replacement, check if the key buttons are dirty or if there’s a wiring fault. In short, CR2025 is standardized, and DIY replacement saves both time and money.
