How to replace the coin cell battery in
the keyless entry system remote control of a 2007 to 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe.

Pry Open Two Halves |
This
automotive "how-to" guide was specifically written to assist owners
of the 2nd generation 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 & 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe SUV in replacing
the button cell battery in the keyless entry system's key fob remote
control. Owners of other Hyundai or Kia vehicles such as the Tucson, Veracruz, Accent, Elantra, Veloster, Sonata, Azera, Genesis, Equus, Forte, Optima, Sorento, Rio, Soul, Sportage and Sedona may also find this guide to be helpful. A new coin (A.K.A. "button", or "watch") battery for the key fob is part # CR2032 which can be purchased at any supermarket, pharmacy, Walmart, Target or online.I recommend buying a 5 pack of CR 2032 3V batteries on Amazon for just a few bucks. The only tool needed to replace the key fob battery is a small flathead screwdriver. |
