How to Replace a Land Rover Key Fob Battery

Don’t hesitate to contact us if you have trouble locating the Land Rover key fob battery. With your key fob battery in handy, we have your instruction on how to open the Land Rover key fob below:

1. Release the Key: To get the Land Rover key fob battery, you have to take the Key Fob apart. Locate the small black button, press down on it, and you’ll release the metal emergency key blade from the plastic box. Other Land Rover keys have a slide-able key that you can remove.
2. Open The Key Fob: Learning how to open the Land Rover key fob is simple! Use the key blade itself or a small screwdriver to pry open the black box and find the battery.
3. Replace the Land Rover Key Fob Battery: Use small instruments like a screwdriver to take out the battery and replace it with the new one, positive (+) side up. Try not to touch the new battery, as moisture and oil from your fingers can corrode the material, which reduces the battery’s life.
4. Put the Key Back Together: Reverse the process above. And now you have a fully operational Land Rover key fob battery replacement! If your display states that a Land Rover key fob battery replacement is still needed, the battery may not be brand new. Reach out to our service center for assistance.

Land Rover Key Care Tips

Your Land Rover smart key is a useful tool that needs proper care to continue running smoothly while safely operating your luxury vehicle. Below are some helpful tips to keep in mind:

• Heat and Sun Damage: Extreme heat and direct sunlight can damage your Land Rover key fob, so don’t leave it near an open window all day. Dust and humidity also negatively affect your Land Rover key.

• Replace All Batteries At Once: It’s essential to replace the batteries on all of your smart keys for your vehicle when your panel displays the “SMART KEY BATTERY LOW” message. If you don’t, this can permanently damage the Land Rover key fob.
