How to Replace Honda Key Fob Battery on Accord Civic CRV Pilot Ridgeline - CR1616 Change 2006
Panasonic CR1616 Battery: amzn.to/3j3kK9l
This video shows you everything you need to know how to change your key fob battery for Honda vehicles. I’ve detailed every step with close-up shots so you can follow along. This can be done in less than 2 minutes. If you follow along, you can save money by doing it yourself because it can cost more than $50 at a dealership, service shop or garage.
A dead battery in your key fob can be an inconvenience but changing the battery is pretty simple and that’s what I’ll show you today. This is the key from a 2006 Honda Pilot but you can still follow along this video if you have a mid to late 2000 year CRV, Accord, Civic, Ridgeline with a similar key fob. You can tell the battery is dead if the LED doesn’t light up when you push a button. You’ll need a CR1616 replacement battery and a micro screwdriver before continuing. Replacing the battery should take you less than 2 minutes when you get around to doing it. This screw is very small so once it’s out, put it somewhere safe so you don’t lose it. On the side of the key fob, there’s a little notch here you can use to crack it open. When removing the cover, pull it towards the direction of the key and it will separate quite easily.
Testing it out I can see that I’ve successfully replaced the battery and can use keyless entry on my Honda Pilot again. I can confirm with the LED lighting up when I press a button. Remember that this process is the same across many Honda vehicles and if you found this video helpful please let me know in the comments and don’t forget to subscribe to my channel for more how-to videos and product reviews.

I swear RU-vid has a vid for everything! Glad you took the time to do this, was a big help

@TheRenderQ 3 года назад

I’m surprised too at the type of how-to videos I’ve had to search up! Almost anything I need to know is here! I’m really glad my Honda key fob battery replacement video was helpful! Thanks for watching!

@Ring0fSaturn Год назад

Excellent, instructive video. The key fob for our '09 CRV was different in a couple ways once I got the screw out and the outside shell off, but similar enough to your instruction that I got the job done within ten minutes. Thanks.

@beaconhouse8576 Год назад

Very helpful Nice and easy and less time wasted like others on this

@deadmeate5299 4 года назад

Just changed the battery for my 2007 CRV after watching your great video. Thanks!

@revodamae Год назад

Thank you for posting this video. Surprisingly after 12 years both batteries in my keys died at the same time. The only problem I had was trying to get that teeny tiny screw out of there, once I accomplish that the rest was a piece of cake. Everything is working fine now!

@TheRenderQ Год назад

You’re welcome! So glad you got your batteries replaced in your key fobs! Yea Lu those screws are tiny and a precision screwdriver is needed for that! Nice work! Thanks for watching!

@mikemartin2020 4 года назад

A very clear explanation to how to replace the battery to the Honda key fob. Very nicely done. I think that you must have taken a good deal of time to edit your comments and explanation in order to create such an effective and simple video. Highly recommended.

Hey I’m really glad you enjoyed my key fob battery replacement video. It does take time to make a detailed video but it’s not too hard. I was familiar with the steps to replace the battery plus I’ve been producing videos for a long time.

@jasons8458 3 года назад

Thank you so very much for this video. Professional grade narrations. Up-close view of what's going on. "Slide the cover to separate the shells" which I didn't see in other vids. This is the best how-to video on RU-vid.

@Planetgreenzen 3 года назад

This was super helpful. Thank you so much. My battery just died after 10 years.

@rodentcafeteria Год назад

My Honda key fob seems to have a mind of its own. Sometimes it works fine, while at other times it doesn't work at all. I'm taking that as an indication that the battery is getting weak needs replacing. Your video was very helpful, and makes the process look very easy, so I'm going to give it a try and, hopefully, I won't screw it up. Thanks.

@bluetrue6062 Год назад

Thanks! Took mine apart without removing screw prior to seeing ur video 😬😬😬. Went back together okay.

@tropocal2343 4 месяца назад

*Cool, primarily the same instruction for my 2011 CRV, except my transmitter housing didn't have the tabs on either side, so no need to pry with fingernails, so that was easier, but my battery was locked into more tabs than the one you're showing, so a bit tougher to pry out, which also took some finesse to pop the new one back in place.* *I also noticed you had some sort of flexible gasket (**2:42**) that `you needed to not bind/pinch, as you closed your transmitter housing, which mine didn't have, so that was easier for me as well.* *Thank You for the video.* 👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

That's good! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video! I'm sure every brand of key Fob is different when it comes to replacing the batteries!

@Michele0403 6 лет назад

Yesterday, I took everything apart, without breaking anything !!! I have a lot of tools, so I even had a tiny screwdriver to get it open. I'm pretty sure that if I hadn't watched your video, I probably would have broken a part just taking off that first piece !!!! Just wish my adult daughter had some interest in learning how to fix things herself !!! She didn't even want to watch ME do it. !!! lol ps- I'm a 64yr old woman, and my daughter is 34yrs old !!! I remember when I was around 12yrs old, don't tell my Mom, but I took apart my transistor radio, so I could see how it works !!!!

@TheRenderQ 6 лет назад

I totally understand! I try to get my kids to watch me repair some of the stuff I work on in hopes that they would have some prior knowledge before they actually run into some of these problems on their own. And I love your story about taking apart your radio when you were young!

What if the led light still doesn’t light after putting in a new battery?

@jaimespainjesus4608 5 лет назад

Thanks for the Video, very useful. But i have a question, after changing the battery for a correct one, i have the mas fob, the led does not light up and also does not open or close the car. The fob stopped working out of the blue without any damage or knock. The spare key does not work (same issues) with a new battery as it has been idle for years. What do you thinks it could be? Many thanks

I was able to snap the key fob back together without the screw. I used a dab I flex seal clear silicon in screw hole but it was not needed to keep fob together.

@YD-uq5fi 3 года назад

I can't remove the screw!! It is too tight.

@TheRenderQ 3 года назад

Sorry you’re having issues with the screw on your key fob! They might’ve applied some Loctite on the screw to keep it secure. Are you using a micro screwdriver? Make sure it fits tightly so you don’t strip the head. Pushing down while turning slowly may help you get it out.

@yasa4248 7 лет назад

Why if it still doesn't work after replacing the battery

@TheRenderQ 7 лет назад

I'm not sure but if your key fob still isn't working with the new battery then there might be something wrong with the remote itself. But check your battery to see if you have the positive and negative on the correct side when inserted. Are the battery contacts touching the battery? If you have a 2nd Honda key, can you switch batteries with that one to see if it works on this one?

@yasa4248 7 лет назад

Thanks for the reply I will give that a go.

@mushy18100 6 лет назад

This is the key fob of a 2006 Honda Pilot and I assumed that the life expectancy of that CR1616 is 10 Years since this video was made in 2016

@TheRenderQ 6 лет назад

Yeah I guess that would make sense that the battery lasts about 10 years. Although I bought this vehicle used (can't remember what year I bought it) it's possible that the original owner might have changed the battery but maybe not likely. These car remotes usually go quite awhile before needed a battery change. Thanks for watching and feedback!

@lovlovel1565 8 лет назад

Where can i purchase the battery?

@TheRenderQ 8 лет назад

I got mine at Radio Shack but it was costly. About $4.75. You can order a bundle on Amazon like 4-6 of them for the price I paid for one at Radio Shack. I needed a battery that day because my Pilot was going into the shop so I paid the higher price. This should be a common battery but the did not have it at the Fred Meyer electronics department though.

@THERIPPER216 6 лет назад

@voticiano 2 года назад

Warning: its happen that when I changed the battery, my key became desconfigurated and no longer can synchronize with the car.

@TheRenderQ 2 года назад

Whoa! I haven’t heard about that happening! Did the key eventually work again? Are all the parts back in the key fob correctly? Also check the polarity of the battery. If it’s reversed the key fob won’t work. Hope you get this resolved!

@voticiano 2 года назад

@@TheRenderQ Actually the key become totally useless, when I try to turn the car on a green key flash thorugh the screen which means that the car doesn-t recognize the key, the only solution is to take it to the dealership or locksmith (which of course wil charge about$150 to reprogram it again).😟
