DO NOT use a flathead screwdriver to open the key fob housing! The tip of your emergency key is the tool to open it, it fits in the "slot" he talks about.

[@kayla9405]

Thank you so much! I probably would have broken the key with a screwdriver!!!

[@danresciniti]

@@kennethdotsey5295 don't give up. My spare 2016 Sonata key, which had been sitting in the closet for 6.5 years, seemed to be stuck also. I'd push the little release button and the key would not release. I kept trying and with a little more force than I was applying, it finally released. Changed the battery and now back in business.

@@kayla9405 I wish I had read the comments first before I tried it. I broke my fob using the screwdriver. The key won't stay in now.

[@asiagotskills8579]

Thank you for this!!

[@nyst8omynd463]

Great catch, thank you! I probably would've cracked the whole thing...😁

Life has enough challeges... You have lightened the load with this simple, direct and clearly understood video on changing our key battery. Can't thank you enough!

[@davidbaker4110]

To remove the back I use the manual key. Release the manual key with the button. Slide the key out about 3/4. Twist the key and release the back. No need for a screwdriver. Note: I don't touch the battery with bare fingers. I use a glove to keep the battery free of any body oils, etc.

[@Sundance94]

I should’ve just watch this video instead of thinking I need to go to the dealer thanks got it done in two minutes and luckily my local pharmacy had it

[@RichardUlisky]

Key fob grumbled about the battery. Found your video on how to replace. Worked perfectly. Thanks.

[@bigbear7233]

Worked like a charm!!! 10 batteries off amazon for $12. 2019 Hyundai Sonata has a flat bottom key, so you don’t need a screwdriver. This is why KZbin is real. THANK YOU

[@Rafael-uv9c]

A well made video that took me to the right information immediately, with very concise material... ABLE TO CHANGE THE BATTERY IN LESS THAN A MINUTE - Thanks!

[@napoearth]

You don't need any extra tools. Everything can be done with the key once you remove it.

Thank you for the information very helpful 👍🏾 However I was able to take apart the key and remove the battery all with the key.

Excellent...thank you as it saved me time & money from going to dealership, which I knew wasn't best option

I cannot believe I placed Battery upside down! Thanks for this simple video.

Thanks!

[@robertlehrer233]

Thanks for your helpful video. It's perfect for my Hyundai key fob that came with the car when it was new. The drawings in the owners' manual do not match the actual device. Your video matches the key fobs that I have.

Thank you sir

[@fugguhber4699]

Yes. good job - good video -------------

[@pennypennington593]

This video used a screwdriver to open the batteries which was much easier than trying to use the key to do it.

[@sdo6021]

I have to say this video may have destroyed many fobs and more eventually. By using the flat screw head near area described, you may inadvertently break the latch to hold in the metal key. Might as well put a link to a Amz for replacement shell.

[@user-rl1tz7cs7j]

Thkx for guidance, my problem resolved❤❤❤

[@petergiordano2917]

Good video. Well done. I especially like that you have the correct writing of the shape of the capital letter I. Even texting keyboards are set up incorrectly - as evidenced by the I that I just wrote three times!

You people are silly and don’t miss a beat lol

[@stephenfisher8722]

what about Hyundai sonata hybrid?

[@joeeisel6213]

Mine is a 2016 Hyunda Sonata Hybrid Limited. Process is similar except that battery was behind the motherboard when I popped open the fob casing. Had to gently lift out the motherboard to expose the battery. Just be sure to put components back together where the align.

[@fl0wmastr]

What if key is stuck and won’t come out after you hit the button?

[@OkieJess1208]

This literally popped a chunk of the latch piece off. Wish I would’ve seen the comments about not using a flat head 😠

[@rachsawyer964]

My key for a 2019 hyundai sonata (I think it's the SEL model car) looks exactly the same as this key (at least on the outside). I followed the instructions, but inside the key fob looks very different. I don't see any battery... can someone please help me?

[@justinhunt8409]

Mine is a 16, I found it behind the motherboard, hopefully that helps

[@joeeisel6213]

Mine is a 2016. When popping open, it did not separate like the video shows. It separated between the motherboard and the connectors. I had to gently lift out the mother and align that with the connectors. Underneath the motherboard was the battery. I had two key fabs which I replaced the batteries. Had to add these extra steps to replace the battery in each one. Just be sure to align the connectors and motherboard correctly. Worked fine.

[@cap52]

@@kennethdotsey5295 Worked fine on my 2017.

[@robertwolstein8111]

Does the key Fob have to be reprogrammed after you replace the battery?

[@reneekilburn6868]

I dont believe so. I dropped mine off to be changed at a shop once and it worked like normal after

[@andrewroberts7145]

Nope. Just replaced the batteries in both of my fobs, tested both on my car and they work perfectly.

[@mayolanerie6719]

Mine doesn’t have a battery in it

[@justinhunt8409]

Check behind the mother board, carefully of course

[@joeeisel6213]

Battery is behind the motherboard / circuit board. Gently have to lift out to expose the battery.

[@Bahmed825]

Thanks for making this video. I changed the battery myself by watching this video, and get on the road again.

[@Crinnker]

this broke my frickin key

[@anubis9139]

If you want, you don't nees a screwdriver. You can just use the key itself to open the casing.

[@robbeygreene6962]

My inside doesn’t look anything like that what the frig been watching so many videos

[@kennethdotsey5295]

These people might get some instructions right but this video does not apply to a 2016 FOB take it to the dealer

[@user-xh9ym1ig8u]

This is not the right key fob for 2016 Hyundai Sonata

[@esmeraldavega7489]

Now my key won’t click

[@leanncoates790]

Would t recommend, my key doesn’t pop back in now ….

[@fwash25]

GEEZ!!!!!! 😤 Why are people disliking a perfect video??!!

[@PudgeyRox]

It’s not a perfect video because using a flathead driver can scratch or worse, break the key fob. Use the key itself and the fob comes apart easily

[@koko_kakez]

I used my key and fingers 🥹 thank you for all info including battery type
