In this video I'm showing you the two different styles of VW fobs. They look very similar but the process is a bit different. For the newer style fobs, all you need to do is pop off the back portion and you have access to the battery quickly. For the older style, you will need a screwdriver to dry the two sections apart. Then you will pry the back half apart yet again. Hope this little video was helpful to you!
How to replace a Volkswagen key remote battery. These two fobs are similar looking but getting to the battery are very different. Hopefully this helped you change your dead or low battery in your VW key.

you’re a real one for this video, my car wouldn’t start cause the battery was dead and i was stuck in a parking lot but i went over to the store and bought a battery and watched your video and now i’m back on the road
Good stuff!! Glad you could get it sorted out and get back on the road
Thanks for the quick tip. Clear, concise, accurate and didn’t drag on for 20 minutes.
Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you!! I have the older fob and I don't think I could have figured it out myself how to open it without breaking it without your video!
Glad I could help!
Best instructional video I’ve seen here about ANYTHING since a loooong time. I’m shocked
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks so much. Worked like a charm and saved me some money. Volkswagen charges like $15 to do it for you. 👍🏼
Glad I could save you some cash!!
Straight to the point. No fluff, thanks much
You just saved me so much time. I didn’t imagine it’d be so easy. Thank you!
Happy to help!
Excellent instructions: accurate and succinct. It took me less than two minutes to replace the battery (prying the old one out was a bit harder than I expected, or it would have been about one minute).
No problem 👍
THANK YOU!! My car was dinging every minute or so warning me about my key battery and I had the dreaded thought that I might need a whole new key so finding this was a lifesaver. I bought the batteries and bam, good to go. I appreciate you making this video so much!
Glad it helped!
Brilliant, Thank you so much for creating this excellent instruction. It saved me from breaking the key fob trying to work out how to undo it.
Glad it helped!
Really appreciate the straight forward video with no extra banter, made the process a breeze 👍🏻
Glad it was helpful!!
Thanks Rob! My car wasn't recognizing my fob - it was just a battery change - thanks so much for walking me through this! Happy Holidays 🙂
Great! Glad it was a simple fix for you :) Take care
This was an absolutely brilliant simple to follow video that helped me replace the battery and sort out my car locking and unlocking issue. Thank you Rob ❤
No problem 👍
Thanks so much for taking the time to show us how to do this. This really saved me a lot of time and effort!
You're welcome!
I like the pimp flip @1:21 just slings that old battery out. Thanks for help man!
lol - yup! Glad I could help
Legend! Thanks for posting! Straight to the point, no messing.
You bet! Take care
Love it straight to the process, I highly recommend!!
Glad I could help!
I really appreciated this video. I went to Canadian Tire to buy a new battery and was hoping that they would put it in for me. Unfortunately, they had a costly complaint from someone and no longer will put the new battery in for you. After watching this video,I was able to change the battery without any problem! Thanks again!😊
Great! Glad you could get it sorted out
Thank-you !!! My unhandy man told be to ‘take my car to the dealer’ 😳😝, your video and two batteries ( 5.99) for two and as my Grandpa said ‘I am back in business’ THANK-YOU !!!
Great job! Glad you could get it sorted out quick and cheap!
@@KeyFobRob thanks again !!

You're welcome!
Thanks! Just what I needed. I appreciate you making this video.
Glad I could help 😃
😁Thanks! I just did it following your instructions, great job!
Glad it helped!
Good info, Thanks! Note my 2005 Passat uses the key that is taken apart in two steps. My key fob would lock the doors, but not unlock them. I figured the key fob needed reprograming, but a new battery fixed the problem.
Glad it helped
Thank you! Precise details and good lighting.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video thanks you made it easy for me!!!
Good stuff! Glad you could get it sorted out.
Like others said straight to the point. You helped me to open my fob (older style). Thank you a lot.
Nice! Glad I could help
Straight to the point...thanks so much
Short and sweet, Thanks for the good video
Glad you found the video to be helpful
Jeeze who had any idea getting the key fob open would be so easy? Thanks a ton!
Glad I could help!
thank you so much! also thank you for distinguishing between the old and new key fobs and their differences
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks so much for the battery change .your a legend😊
No problem 👍
You're a legend mate! Your video helped me to guide my Mom in South Africa to change the battery with me in Australia.👍👍
Cheers!!
Very well done. Thank you
Glad you liked it!
Thank you! Great video!
Thank you
Thanks! With the second model, I never would have known to pry and slide 🙏🏻 👍🏻
Happy to help!
Easy peasy! Thanks Key fob Rob! :)
No problem! Glad I could help
Many thanks for the video, I was able to change the battery on my newer key fob
Glad I could help!
So simple , so useful. Thank you very very much , greetings from Greece.
Παρακαλώ
Thanks! Everyone else only shows the new version. Almost broke mine until i saw this
Glad you found this video helpful!
Geesh my dumbass has been taking the fob to the stealership for 10 years because I just assumed it was some proprietary battery. 🤦🏼♂️ Thanks for the video!
Ha! I feel you. You can absolutely do this yourself
Thank you! So helpful and simple.
Glad it was helpful!
4 years later still helpful 😃
Hint: With the newer one you probably won’t need any tools since I got my battery out quite easily with just pushing the battery in on the right side
Mine is one series newer than these (2019: logo in the corner). And it's rare because my year is mostly keyless, though the base models still click. I'll try to find another video.
Here is my video on that style - ua-cam.com/video/LTeWwJyGuzE/v-deo.html
I watch this video every year. Thank you.
Nice! See you again next year :)
THANK YOU 🙏🏾!!! I really didn’t want to go to the dealership for this.
No problem 👍
Thanks for the video which was concise and to the point .
Glad it was helpful!

Great! Glad I could help

This is what UA-cam is all about. Thanks
Just replaced my passat tdi key fob battery, thanks!
Glad it helped!
Now an even cheaper fob on the 2022 Tiguan. You have to pull an emergency key out of device. Both batteries had to be replaced (by me) after 26 months. One fob was only used when car was serviced (2x total) and my everyday fob in use on a car that hasn’t hit 7500 miles yet.
Great simple video 👍👍
Glad you think so!
excellent video thank you
You are welcome!
Thank you saved my life 😊
not all heros wear capes. lol

Just changed my 2006 Jetta fob battery. Have been using this fob exclusively since I bought it new in Sept 2005. That is a damn good battery!!! Panasonic. Wasn't completely dead either
Thanks!
You're welcome
Very Thanks, its all Good 😃👍
Perfect! Thank you!!
You're welcome!
Key Fob Rob is the Goat
Ha! Thanks for stopping in and commenting
Appreciate the post. Ours (2003 VW Vista, mini class C/eurovan engine & chassi)) is not either of these, though looks similar to the older model. Where yours both show VW logos, ours is a blank circle w/a tiny screw~ not sure if I should try unscrewing, or go w/your own method #2, since it does look the same on the side view when the key is popped out of the way? Appreciate your time if you happen to see this~ Sam in AZ
Thank you. The guy in the key shop ran out of batteries and told me I should just do it myself via UA-cam - saved me £12
You're welcome! Glad the video was helpful
Cheers mate no nonsense video
Cheers!
Thanks sooooo much!!!! ❤
No problem!!
Thanks Rob!
You bet!
Top Work Rob keep it up 👍
Cheers!
Thank you for this. How do you remove the electronic chip from the newer one?
Thank you, save me money and time.
Glad I could help
I just love you man, you solve my problem :D
Ha! Glad I could help
I have the 2014 model and its the same as the older model showed here, just there is a retaining ring for the battery that comes out when you remove the battery. Wish I watched this video before attempting as I unnecessarily dissembled the 'flick-knife' key and had a whale of a time figuring out how to put it back together.
Yeah - those are quite the pain to put back into place
Perfect, thanks 👍🏻
No problem 👍
I have washed my key in washing machine. Your video was 3rd that i have seen. But only you showed two model of keys instead of other authors. Thank you!
