Clio Keyfobs

[Stevie]

Does anyone else find it a t*at to replace the battery in these?

 

[Liam]

cant get back of mine, tried even though dont need to change battery yet

 

[benji&eka]

yup, i lost my temper with mine a lobbed it at a wall....seems the only way to pop the back off! it does work tho, every time. i rekon thats what it says in the tech handbook Lol

 

[Stevie]

LOL, I think I'll try other means before that!

Thanks!

 

[Stevie]

I've now managed to get it off by using the hole in the key to pull each part away, so I won't be lobbing it at any walls

put it on the edge of a table,with arrow facing you, hold key part in your hand and push the half closest to you down.....job done

takes a bit of practice but easy once it comes off for 1st time....and if you fcuk up your table edge its not my fault lol

 

[Liam]

its suppose to be part of the service schedule, once every 2 years the key fob battery is changed by the dealers...

I just changed the key bit in mine!
Pain in the ass to get it off-Take out the Metal ring bit first then try it like davio said.

I have always used another key to pop it open, but the key diagonally in the hole where keyring goes through and it will pop open.

 

[Jonaldinho]

I ripped my fingers to shreads doing mine and it didn't even work after that! Damn thing lost its settings and im not paying silly dolla to get it fixed. Will be getting a new spare soon anyway as im currently using my spare as the other key is not stopping the imobilisor.

lol @ you lot.

take the key off the keyring... put a screwdriver through the hole and lever it in the direction of the arrow.

its a piece of piss lol

you need to change your battery dude then, when they fresh ive had over 30 metres approx

 

[bendee]

ive took the key apart and had a look is it as easy as just changing the battery? ive heard people saying something about the people at renault needing to do something to it.

 

[Liam]

thought you can do it your self, just have them ready and do it quick. sure there wont be any probs, not done mine yet though so not sure

 

[fUbAr]

you can safely change the battery yourself.

ive done it many times.
