    Thanks for this Justin, really helpful. In case anyone else is interested, my old Duracell 2032 batteries (in both my key fobs) lasted less than 18 months each. I'm in the UK. My remote locking and comfort access stopped working and I thought the worse: I hadn't used my E93 that much and wasn't that familiar with its operation. I put new Duracell batteries in both keys when I bought the car about 2 years ago so I thought that was that. However in desperation I thought I'd check the batteries just in case. Yep, both were dead! Put in new Panasonics and all is working again. I must say I was getting cheesed off using the emergency key to unlock, then leaping in to cancel the alarm each time! Thanks again.

    @dominicmoore6828 2 роки тому

    Thank You! Been trying to figure it out for a couple weeks now. People tell you to break the fob open just to have to solder the battery back to the motherboard and super glue it back 2gether. I'm so broke I wouldn't be able to buy the glue let alone the soldering materials. But, I do have grey duct tape! Even the hamster in the wheel under the hood has grey tape on him. Your the best in the world.

    Thanks for the video--wasn't sure how to open it on my own. Extra tip for ultra-lazy people like me who can't be bothered to walk to the toolkit for a screwdriver--the narrow tip of the emergency key can also do the screwdriver part of prying up the cover.

      That means yours is the rechargeable version. If it's no longer holding a charge, you will need to have the key replaced by the dealership. Technically there is a way to break the seal on the key and solder in a new battery but most people just have it replaced.
