Can I replace a non-comfort access style fob with replaceable battery comfort access fob as a replacement part? My backup key fob is always dead (uncharged) when I need it.
You might but it seems like more work. The reason it dies is because it is recommended to use the key 2 times a year for a long drive. Seems your battery was drain for too long and now it does not keep the charge.
I’ve changed the battery correctly. Everything like the central lock/unlock buttons in the car work. The doors unlock and lock with the internal physical key but still the the non comfort key won’t open work. What now? Any help is greatly appreciated!
I went to the BMW dealership and they wanted $300 for a new fob (they are crazy) and they won't replace this kind of battery. Is there anyone in Southern California that can do this kind of job? Please send me contact info.

Nice cold solder joints.

Do you have to reprogram the key fob after installing the new battery?
No remote reprogramming required after installation.

@@zachwalgamuth6284 any luck i have the samw issue?
I changed the battery, however the remote lock/unlock will not work. Do you know how to re-synchronize the fob to the car
Where do I find replacement battery
I did this on both of mine,What a pain,I don’t mean doing it,But having to do it,Why can’t they all use a CR2032 instead of a VL2020,Much easier.
Worked perfectly
Paldies par informaciju
