How to open the Key Fob of a Mazda Key Fob

If you've noticed that your Mazda key fob isn't functioning as easily, or its indicator of operation is no blinking, you may require a new battery. Fortunately it's one of the easiest repairs you can do at home using just a few basic tools.

The Mazda key fob is powered by the CR2025 battery that is available at most retail stores as well as websites selling batteries. The four-pack costs about $4 and comes in various sizes.

Open the Mazda key fob with an affixed flathead screwdriver. Press the auxiliary button on the fob's backside to remove the metal keys for auxiliary keys, then use the screwdriver on both sides to pry apart the case. Make sure to work slowly so that you don't cause damage to the case, and to keep the screwdriver's blade from getting scratched.

Remove the battery after you have opened the key fob. Be sure to examine the rubber ring on which the battery is placed to ensure it's in good shape. After that, insert your new CR2025 battery in a positive direction, making sure that the positive side is facing toward you. Replace the case by re-covering the screwdriver. After that, put everything back together according your Mazda CX-5 owner's manual.

Battery Replacement

Mazda key fobs are simple to replace. However it is recommended to do this before the battery has failed. This can cause the car's ability of starting and unlock doors to be compromised. This could be very dangerous especially if you have small children inside the vehicle.

The battery is at the bottom of the key fob. It's usually a little larger than a coin. It has two terminals. There will be the red one marked (+) and the black one is marked (-).

Make use of a screwdriver with a taped head first to open the case on one side before proceeding to the other. Be cautious not to open the case too much, or you may damage the internal components. When the case is removed there is tiny rubber rings that the battery is placed on. The ring has an identification number engraved on it. Keep the code number somewhere secure, not in your vehicle in case you require it in the future.

Once you've replaced your battery then put everything back together. Attach the case again and be sure to insert both sides of the case into the key fob until you hear it click.

Ignition Replacement

For the most part it's pretty easy to replace the battery of a car key fob and you can do so at home without the need of the assistance of a professional. Many experts suggest keeping an extra battery in your vehicle and you can purchase them in most hardware stores. This will reduce the expense of buying a new fob, which can cost up to $250 or more for most affordable vehicles, and $500 or more in the case of luxury models.

If the key is stuck inside the ignition, it can be much more difficult to remove. Modern ignitions are sophisticated systems that require a series of actions to function correctly. If something interrupts this process, such as the breaking of a key or an ignition lock pin, the ignition could jam and the key could be stuck inside.

If your ignition is damaged, you will require it to be repaired or replaced. This is a difficult task that is dependent on the make and model of your car. Some dealerships will do this, but it's generally more expensive than hiring an independent mechanic.

It's good to know that the majority of modern key fobs can be easily replaced. You can often do it yourself using a screwdriver, a plier and a new battery. Some key fobs emit a warning when their lifespan is approaching the end. Experts suggest keeping an extra battery in your center console or in the glove box. Also, you should have small screwdrivers to open it in the event that you need to change out the old one.

A locksmith may also give you an entirely new key. They may require an operational key from the vehicle to program the new fob, therefore it's essential to find one that requires evidence of ownership or registration prior to when they begin.
