Problem replacing key-fob battery.
I have the multifunction key fob for a 2008 Grand Caravan SXT.
This is the one with buttons to open the side doors, rear hatch, all doors, engine start, unlock, and panic. It's the same as the one used on the Chrysler Town & Country. I need to replace the #2032 disk battery. I got the little door off the fob, but for the life of me, I can't get the battery out. It is partially covered by design of the fob case. I have tried pulling, prying etc. There has got to be a trick. The manual only says to remove and replace the old battery. The battery is intact, and has not leaked. I can rotate it with my finger so I know it's not corroded in place. Just can't get it out. I'm ready to try needle nose pliers, but don't want to take a chance of damaging the thing and having to purchase a new one. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance Similarly posted in the alt.autos.dodge newsgroup |
