The method for replacing the Cadillac key battery is: 1. Remove the mechanical key; 2. Use a flat-head screwdriver to pry open the key shell along the edge; 3. Open the key shell, take out the old battery, and replace it with a new one. Functions of the car key: 1. After the vehicle is turned off, press and hold the lock button on the remote key to close the windows; 2. The red horn-shaped button on the key serves both as a vehicle locator and an emergency function; 3. It has an automatic trunk opening function. Taking the 2021 Cadillac CT6 Fashion model as an example, its body dimensions are: length 5223mm, width 1879mm, height 1492mm, with a wheelbase of 3109mm.
Replacing the Cadillac key battery is actually quite simple. My Cadillac's key lasted over three years before the battery gave out, and I managed to replace it myself by following the manual. First, take a close look at the back of the key—you'll find a small slot or opening. Most smart keys can be opened by gently prying the clip with a small tool like a keychain or a thin screwdriver. Don't use too much force to avoid cracking the plastic shell—I've seen people rush and break the cover. Inside, you'll find a round coin battery, usually a CR2032 model. Note this model number—it's cheap to buy online. Remove the old battery, paying attention to the positive and negative sides, then place the new battery in the same position. When you hear a click, snap the cover back on. Finally, test it—if the light turns on or the car unlocks when you press the button, you've succeeded. I recommend keeping a spare battery handy because it drains quickly, especially in cold weather. Avoid pressing the key buttons unnecessarily to extend its lifespan. This method saves you the cost and time of visiting the dealership—pretty practical.
