Car key battery models: Car remote keys use button batteries, mainly in the models CR2016, CR2025, and CR2032. The specific model can be determined based on the model used in each car or the battery model specified in the user manual for replacement.
I've been driving the Weltmeister EX5 for almost three years and have replaced the key battery three times, each time with a CR2032 model. This small, round battery is incredibly common and can be easily purchased at supermarkets or online. The first time I replaced it, I was all thumbs and nearly broke the edge of the key. Later, I learned to use a plastic card to gently pry open the latch—just take it slow. The battery lasts about a year and a half, depending on how frequently you use the car. If the buttons feel stiff or the remote range shortens, it's usually just a low battery signal—no need to rush to the repair shop and waste money. By the way, I recommend Sony or Duracell brands for batteries; avoid no-name brands to prevent leakage that could damage the internal circuits. Also, keep the key in your bag without heavy items pressing on it to extend its lifespan.
