What battery is needed? I looked before at batteries in a supermarket and couldn't find the exact one so didnt buy any just incase it messed it up. Thank you

[@dmgladden]

Hi Chantelle sorry for the slow response I went to get to correct number for you but got distracted anyway if your still waiting this is it CR2033 just Google that number and the best offers will come up in your area

Great video After lockdown im going to have a go at this

Your welcome

Splitting these keys open is VERY hard depends on model but mine had a massive weld over the battery terminals and I had to use a soldering iron to melt it but managed to open it and re-solder the coil to get rid of card not detected!

[@dmgladden]

Steve Hurt I never had an original Renault key in the first place it seems the last owner had already changed it, I would suggest getting a replacement case first then open the old one and as long as you don't damage the P.C.B the the old case can go in the bin

[@stevehurt1615]

opening the ORIGINAL requires a lot of effort with a stanley round the perimeter of unit and a soldering iron to melt the plastic inside if you use a knife you either loose a finger or scratch the PCB. It looks like you have an original one that was damaged but your video makes opening one of these units a doddle and it is not. putting a snide £3 casing back on is whats easy and you have a link from an ebay seller promoting their cheap and nasty replacement!

thank you

[@8803surri]

Not correct as the battery terminals go through the plastic of the casing!

[@dmgladden]

So what is you conclusion? I made a fake case if not please explain what is your meaning so we can all understand

[@8803surri]

@@dmgladden the battery terminals are embedded in the case....therefore when you said...take it appart you have to keep the front side is all.

[@dmgladden]

@@8803surri no mate really mine came out as a one, I think it was already a second case so maybe the separating had been done before but it shows it can be done and the you can replace it all as I show in this video

[@sudstahgaming]

I have this key fob it is awful cheap and have repaired it about 4 times before it finally totally died

[@newadventures4035]

nice calendar

[@dmgladden]

New Adventures i have 2

[@sparkie1401]

Totally fucked my key up attempting this! It would not come apart, but would spilt and break

[@dmgladden]

You can get a new case from eBay for about £2 would have been an idea to get one first once you found yours hard to open, anyway hope you get it sorted

[@555jaybo]

never use off the shelf superglue near electrical components

[@dmgladden]

You mean change a habit of a lifetime! I have never had any issues even on my £1,000 Drone
