Page 90 of the owners manual, open the key and use a quarter in the slot left to pry it open. Key facing you, release button to the left pry the left side of the housing. You also need to pry up and remove a circuit board before you can remove the battery.

You should really reference your manual and save yourself $160.00 (key) plus labor to reprogram it.

No reprograming required unless you ruin the key by damaging the circuit board or case. Thats why I recommended the owners manual reference.

Page 90 quote: Note
The keys do not need to be reprogrammed after replacing the battery.
