What is the battery model for the Nissan X-Trail remote key?
2 Answers
The battery model for the Nissan X-Trail car key is CR2032. CR2032 is a lithium manganese dioxide battery, named according to the IEC standard. The breakdown 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 it were square, F would be used instead. 20 - Indicates the battery diameter is 20mm. 32 - Represents the battery height of 3.2mm. The nominal voltage is 3.0V, with an endpoint voltage of 2.0V. The rated capacity varies between 200-240mAh, depending on the manufacturer's quality. The shelf life of a CR2032 battery is typically 5 years. If the manufacturing quality or quality control is poor, the lifespan may be significantly shorter. Domestic top-tier brands can generally guarantee this lifespan. Under ideal conditions (sealed, room temperature, no moisture, etc.), the lifespan can extend to 8 or even 10 years. For the Nissan X-Trail's Fashion Edition, Comfort Edition, and Luxury Edition models, the key battery model is CR2032. Replacing the key battery requires just three steps: Step 1: Remove the mechanical key. Press the lock button on the side of the smart key to release the mechanical key. Step 2: Open the battery cover. After removing the mechanical key, you will 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 it open to reveal the coin cell battery. Gently remove the old battery. Step 3: Replace the battery. Insert the new battery, reattach the battery cover, and reinsert the mechanical key to complete the replacement. Two important notes when replacing the Nissan X-Trail key battery: 1. The key uses a CR2032 coin cell battery—ensure you purchase the correct model. 2. Replace the battery quickly, as the key has memory functionality. If power is lost for more than 5 minutes, the key will need to be reprogrammed.
I remember the battery model for the X-Trail remote key is usually CR2032, which is that small round coin-shaped battery. My car is the X-Trail, and when the key signal weakens after a few years of use, you need to replace this battery. It's not difficult to replace: find a small screwdriver or coin to pry open the back cover of the key, remove the old battery, put in a new CR2032 with the positive side facing up, and close it up. Don't get the model wrong—CR2032 can be bought in the electronics section of supermarkets or online stores for about a dollar each. Different year models of car keys might have different designs; older versions might use CR2025, but most newer versions from 2015 onwards use CR2032. I keep a few at home myself, and each replacement lasts about a year and a half, saving me the hassle of being stuck when trying to open the car door. Be gentle when doing it; don't pry too hard and crack the casing, as it might affect the remote function. Also, avoid frequently pressing the buttons in daily use to extend the battery life.
