2. Replace Key Fob Battery

   • Note the orientation of the battery before removal.
   • Carefully remove the existing battery from its compartment.

3. Insert New Battery:

   • Place the new battery into the fob in the same orientation as the old one.
   • Ensure it is seated properly in the compartment.

4. Reassemble the Key Fob:

   • Align the two halves of the fob.
   • Press them together until they click into place securely.

3. Test the Key Fob

• Stand near the vehicle and press any button to check if the fob responds.
• Observe if the vehicle locks/unlocks as expected.
