My favorite trick is to find the LED tea candles at Dollar Tree, you get 2 for $1 (used to get 3) These have a 2032 battery in them, so 2 for a $1. Your old battery will still light the candle in most cases. thanks for the dead battery start tip.
You xr
Nice tip!
Dollar Tree has recently changed their Tea Candles to take 2, LR44 (1.5V) batteries. Make sure they say "CR2032" before buying.
My FOB uses 2025 batteries 😔
Always be careful of random people videos. 9 times out of ten it's not the battery that's the problem. If you look at the surface of your battery you will see black dots were the contact points touch, this is a build up of dirt and dust caused by the magnetic field generated when the battery is in use.
Just rotate the battery a 1/4 turn (Either way) and the fob will work like new.
Works 90% of the time!

Good tip!
Thanks for your clear and concise explanation and demonstration. Key to success is having the right tool to open the fob...like any other project: tool is king!
Glad it helped!
Thank you so much.
Mine was out for months and I had no idea how to replace the battery.
A friend told me to check TH-cam, and I came across your video.
I was able to do it all by myself.
Thanks again for your help😊
You are welcome!
Quick to the point. Clear. Concise. Many thanks!
Glad it helped!
Thank you so much! I've been driving for nearly a year with the change battery notice going off 😅 I bought the battery a LOOONG time ago and just had it ready just in case. It's about to get cold so I just finally took the time to make the change. Thank you for being clear and taking the time to explain.
Glad it helped!
Your story is similar to mine. Matt SR's video was simple and to the point. Thanks for taking the time to make the video.
Exxon video you're the only one that showed us how to open up the fob without the little inserts on each side We love all of your videos because you get right to the point Thank you very much You solved a lot of problems great videos all of them
Glad they help!
Wow, the timing of your video was perfect for me, my rouge 2017 ( just purchased a few months ago) told me I had a low battery in my key, never owed a car with a fob before, your video has helped me tremendously!! Thanks for posting!!
hah perfect!
Same ^^ which battery did it end up being ? I haven’t opened up my key yet to check for 2017
@@binsabose5576 hey there, it was the #2032 size. Changed both fobs ~ now in good shape for another couple years. Bought the energizer lithium 2032 4 pack.
@@binsabose5576 It would be the same spec. :)
Hi there, I also have a 2017 rogue. I didn't get a warning but it I kept having trouble of it recognizing the keys so I replaced the battery but now it won't lock or unlock the vehicle. Is there some kind of reprogramming you supposed to do after?
Great video, thanks for the help. My suv kept saying low battery since I bought it so now I feel like a pro changing it myself lol. Thanks again!!
Glad it helped!
Also, if your fob is totally dead you can push the start button with the logo end of your fob and your car will start. I just looked this up two nights ago when my grandson asked me about it and I'm really glad that I did because today I couldn't get it to start so I pulled the fob out and push the start button with the logo and and voila it started just as they said it would. And the person in the video I watched prior also took their battery completely out of their fob to demonstrate that it works.
And I am heading to the store to pick up a battery right now mine is not in my fob and it does work So that's going to be a lifesaver
Yup! Show the feature at 5:23 in the video. 😊
Saved my life this morning, God bless you
Glad it helped!
I just now changed the battery in the fob of my 2023 Rogue.
I fount that there are two layers that snap apart in order to get in.
It was the side with the logo that snaps open in orde to reviel the battery.
Thanks to your video that showed me how to replace the battery.
Glad it helped!
Thank you Sir, just did it in 5min. Saved me a trip to the dealership and a hurt on my wallet.
Glad it helped!
Thanks, Matt. This was awesome. I was so lost and dealer only wants lots of money for their defect. I was afraid to buy a new one and had to pay to program the new fob. Certainly my last Nissan for sure. Thanks again
Glad I could help!
Great instructions! Very helpful and got it done! Thanks.
Glad it helped!
Saved me a trip to the dealer! Thanks!
You bet!
The dealer charges a fortune.
Thanks for this video! You saved me a lot of money by avoiding the dealership! I knew there had to be a simple solution!
Glad it helped!
Thanks millon for helping me change my own battery.
Glad it helped!
thanks for the info on how to do. I had to call out AAA when my vehicle would not start, thought it was car battery, instead it was the FOB. Should have known I could go to TH-cam for help. Thanks again.
Glad it helped!
Easy as 1-2-3. Thank you very much for both tips.
You bet!
My Car displayed the battery replacement notice and I noticed my Car was not opening like before.Thanks for this video.
You bet!
Love your videos 👍🏼 very helpful
glad it helped!
Awesome thanks. Especially knowing I have a little time and also how to start the car with a dead battery.
Glad it helped!
Great info, I didn't know how to change the battery, I've never had to change the battery in any of my 3 cars
Never hurts to know!
Thank you for your videos. Step by and to the point for each part. Found this video in a Google search so Google likes you too!
appreciate it!

Thank you so much 😀 Super helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for this!

My 2015 Rogue fob had a 2032 in it but the owners manual says to use a 2025. I’ve used both and had zero issues. They both performed and lasted just as long
Glad the battery spec worked!
Thanks for the help!
You bet!
Thanks my red car light with key inside came on.. I went to family dollar brought battery n changed it … turned on light is gone thanks 💪🏾💪🏾 I feel accomplished 😌
Go you!
Thank you for your help!
You're welcome!
Thank you so much
you bet!
Great video!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Some need you to mention, what side the battery goes in first !!! The battery has a + sign, the flat shiny side which goes in first, leaving the side with a gritty look, facing the contacts of the battery … Or the side that looks encased, facing the contacts or guts of the battery
Fatter side sits in the bottom split of the case. There’s also a plus sign engraved in the case too. Worse case, if the battery goes in backwards the clicker won’t work, so you’ll know quickly!
Thank you THANK YOU!
welcome!
Thank you!!
You're welcome!
It worked thank you
You're welcome!
Perfect, thanks
You're welcome!
Thx so much for this!!
glad it helped!
Now mimes dnt work at all 😩
I really need help on a 2007 Ford Focus. I have a radiator that I have to keep replacing two radiator caps cause it keeps breaking, I’ve looked everywhere. I need a video of how that area looks to compare to mines to see what I need to fix it. It’s a rubber cap that keeps cracking and the coolant sprays out.
Unfortunately sold off the Focus last year!
@@MattStephensRich is there a Ford you know that someone has to use in a video? I’m so in need of help
Thank you.
You bet!
So much help thank you
You're welcome!
Thank u 😊
Welcome 😊
Just a question, I’m missing the piece that holds the actual battery in place, is that a reason why my battery may not be working ?
I’d just put the battery in and see if it can run ok
Notice at 2:28 frame the 238 (battery size) is displayed on the inside cover.
Good point!
Thanx! ❤
You're welcome 😊
thank you....
You're most welcome!
Thank you! Almost got locked out of my rental car.
You're welcome!
A little time after the alert comes…I went six months before changing it 😂
Hah!
I've gone 9! 🤓
If your fob has a 2016 battery, replace with a 2016. If it has a 2032, replace with a 2032. The "20" refers to the width across, so yes, both batteries are the same diameter. The "16" refers to the depth. If you choose a different battery size you potentially will not have the correct depth to make a contact OR be too wide to close effectively. Changing the size makes no sense. They are both 3 volt and retails for the same cost.
The change in size simply means you have more storage capacity. Can confirm the 2032 worked as a swap for the 2016 in this case. :)
@@MattStephensRich I'm glad it worked for you! Actually, the 2032 & 2016 have the EXACT same voltage and amperage. The "32" & "16" simply refers to the height of this battery.
@@kschroder4316 Yup! Which gratefully the battery harness is still able to make good connection with/have seat correctly within the key fob.
I couldn’t find a battery that said CR . Only just 2032. Is the CR important?
Nope, just naming convention - 2032 is perfect!
Thanks, I just got the low battery msg.
Glad it helped!
Thank you so much. I just changed my battery!!
Glad I could help!
What does the warning to replace look like?
You will get a “low battery” warning on your car display 😊
It says "Low Battery" on your read out.
Should I do both fobs?
No harm in it!
Notice at 2:28 frame the 238
How do I know my battery is working
Na
Umm… the fob works? Lol
Click the link near the bottom of the screen for how to acutally fix a key fob that still wont work after having the batteries replaced!!! It's easy and free!
❤
Notice at 2:28 frame t
I’ve never had a key fob but I had no idea a key was in there lol
it's crazy what they come up with!
Missing the reset step. The car requires a sync step to connect to the car
Reset hasn’t been needed in my experience!
I just figured this out. It's the battery. Everybody buys a 2032R battery. I looked at the dead battery I took out and it clearly is printed 2032H... sent on Amazon, problem solved..
Good flag!
They sell these batteries at the $1.25/Dollar Tree now
Good tip!
💜💜🛸🛸💚💚🎄🎄
Indeed, 🛸🛸
If you are attempting to change your key fob battery while in your car, stop, and wait until you get home...unless you have a swiss army knife/screwdriver on you. The lazy, asinine design of this key fob makes it nearly impossible to open without a swiss army knife /screwdriver.
there is *a bit* of a lip that you might be able to pry with another key on your key ring, but indeed a screwdriver edge helps a lot.
H gdx bo it
Too long winded my goodness
It’s a hard balance on how much detail folks want/need. Partly why I use chapter marks so you can skip ahead 😊
God, so much talking. A real aggravation when trying to fly out of the door and realize a dead key fob battery. Ultimately got it done after fast forwarding.
It’s a hard balance, as some folks appreciate the narrative. Reason why I add chapters to make for easier skipping!
Mine's been telling me i need a new battery for 9 months - i have an extra key fob, so not really a huge priority right now. I decided to find a tutorial-type video now, BEFORE it becomes a crisis, where i'm running around trying to get somewhere with a dead fob 🤷♀️
The narration was fine and helpful, and i never find it necessary to take out my failure to plan on someone who's trying to teach me something. But that's me.
Don't be an a-hole, you don't even say thanks to the guy who made the video for morons like you to much off of. Why would you then waste so much time going and leaving a comment if you were in such a hurry flying out the door. Ridiculous
How do I get a key can you please let me know
There is a lever on the backside of the key - press that to the side and it will free up the key to be removed.
@@MattStephensRich thank you
You bet!
