The battery model for the BYD F3 remote key is 1632. The method to replace the battery in the BYD F3 key is as follows: 1. Pull out the mechanical key, which is the L-shaped key; 2. Pry open the key shell directly. There is a deep groove and a shallow groove at the top of the key. Use a flat-head screwdriver to pry along the shallow groove to open it; 3. Remove the old battery and install the new one; 4. Reassemble the key. The BYD F3 is an A+ class passenger car produced by BYD Auto. It is equipped with a 1.5L inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, paired with either a 5-speed manual or 6-speed dual-clutch transmission. It has a maximum power output of 80 kW, a maximum horsepower of 109 PS, and a maximum torque of 145 Nm.
I drove a BYD F3 for several years, and the remote key used a CR2032 button battery, a common 3V battery type found in car keys. Every time I replaced the battery, the process was simple: first, gently pry open the key casing with a small flat-head screwdriver, remove the old battery, and ensure the new battery is inserted with the positive side facing up. CR2032 batteries are readily available at supermarkets or convenience stores, costing just a few yuan each, with a lifespan of about one to two years, depending on usage frequency. If the key becomes sluggish or unresponsive, it might indicate a depleted battery—keeping a spare on hand can prevent inconvenience. When replacing the battery, it's best to turn off potential phone interference and test the remote afterward—this small trick helps maintain the key's efficiency.
