- In this video, I show you how to replace a Mazda Miata MX-5 key fob battery (2006-2013 models). This tutorial is for the flip key and will definitely work for other Mazda models that use the same type of keyless entry remote.

Great video! It's a CR1620 battery for anyone wondering (NOT a CR2032).
That would have been me. Thanks for your comment!
👍
Cr2016 also works.
@@AlexDresko nope not at all. 2016 is way too big around. 1616 works tho.
Thanks!
Good clear commentary. Even someone with my level of diy compentence (ie pretty limited) succeeded in changing my fob battery without causing damage. Many thanks for posting.
Very helpful: thank you! Worked great on the remote key fob for my 2012 Mazda MX5 Miata. Was a little surprised when I popped it open, that the battery is a 3v CR1620 - I was expecting a CR2032, like my GMC key fobs.
Absolutely flawless and EASY....Thanks, thanks, thanks...
Thank you so much for your clear and concise directions!
Thank you SO much for this video. It's clear, informative, and even sanity-saving!
Clear instructions, nice and simple... replaced the batteries no problem... thanks!
The "hardest" part of this was getting the right width of screwdriver to pop the case open. (And yes, that's a, I say, that's a joke.) Swiss Army Knives RULE. Thanks for the clear video!
I know it was a long time ago but still holds true for a 2016 MX5
is it possible to replace that chrome bit? My key ring portion broke
thanks! , done it before, but forgot HOW!
Thank you it worked great
Very helpful. Thank you.
Thank you!!
Thanks
Thanks bro,❤
Awesome! Thank you SO much!!!
Note, there is another variant of this key fob and came with my 2005 Gen 2. For that (earlier) variant, also made by Visteon, the shell removal points are not at the peak, but left and right, requiring a narrow screwdriver. Other videos show that particular fob and you may need to work the seams a bit to get the portion covering the battery loosened. Both of my fobs are now ready for future years of usage.
Do you know where to get replacement key fobs for that model?? I’ve been looking everywhere and you happen to have the exact model I have.
@@scerini7024 Unfortunately, no. My first stop would be the dealership. Questions are free.
Thank you bud….
Champion thank you!
be careful the plastic buttons dont fall out! it was a pain to reassemble them
Very helpful!
Thanks. Great job!
I assume the batter is a CR 2032?
No, CR 2032 is too big. Its CR1620.
Thank you
1:07 - Nice!
Thanks much!!!
does it need re-programming after battery replaced?
No. You should be fine.
@@jodyholt4875 yup thx
Approx. what is the life of this battery?
Hey... It would have been very very easy for you to tell us the type of battery in this video!! I read in the comments that it's a CR1620... Who wants to know how to replace a battery without knowing the type of new batter to get? The CR1620 is hard to find. I have to order it online. You said nothing about this. Are you going to have a separate video for that? And, then maybe another separate video for how to snip your fingernails.
Jesus, what a whiner! The type of battery is listed in your owner's manual for crying out loud.
Response is totally unnecessary, Parker was doing you (and us) a favor
It isn't their job to spoon feed you. You're lucky you got what you got!
Yes, and he'll hold your hand and tell you everything will be ok the whole time he's doing it
Have a bad day Johnnie ??
mine looks like a credit card
its not 2006-2013 because my 2008 keyfob is not the same at all lol
My 2008 is the same. Unsure what yours could be.
My 2006 miata key looks slightly different but the process is exactly the same as explained here
Thank you 🎉
Thanks
Thank You!
