jimmy.farrow7 Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I think my battery in my key fob is on its way out, is it a simple task of buying a battery and changing it over or does it have to be reprogrammed. If i change it over can it cause problems, i have a JDM 2 button key fob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridz Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I changed my Zed key fob battery a couple of months ago, without any problems. If you change the battery over quickly enough, I found I didn't need to reprogramme. However, mine is a UK Zed, but I would have thought all key fobs were the same. Hope this helps.

The Trouser Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I think my battery in my key fob is on its way out, is it a simple task of buying a battery and changing it over or does it have to be reprogrammed. If i change it over can it cause problems, i have a JDM 2 button key fob Its a simple task of just changing the battery. I bought a pair of batteries a few months ago - you're welcome to the spare if you want it - PM me and I'll post it to you. TT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerry40 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 (edited) This was the first type of topic I read before purchasing my Zed in October last year and sure enough one of the key fobs had a flat battery. I'd prepared myself for the worst after buying 2 new Duracell replacements ( a re-sync of both fobs ), changed the dead fob first and to my pleasant surprise it worked without any re-programming etc, the battery had been removed for a few days as well. I then replaced the other one and was chuffed I'd avoided any of the problems associated with replacing the batteries, maybe I was just lucky.

Erni902 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Had the same issue with mine when I bought it, both key fobs dead. Paid £1 for replacement duracells from B&Q and now all singing all dancing. CR2016 is the battery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
