(G) Key Fob Batteries

can anybody tell me where i can get replacement batteries for keyfob and what kind are they please

Panasonic CR2032 3V

try poundland. 50 button batteries for a quid. one of them is bound to work.

for a day at least

You sure it's the batteries John? Mine packed up just after I bought the car but it turned out to be dirty contacts inside the fob, the battery was fine.

Replaced both keyfob batteies with Panasonic ones I bought from Tescos. Quid each I think.

Make doesn't matter - just has to be CR2032.

I was not supplied a spare fob or key with mine when I bought it 2nd hand. Can anyone help, not sure how much Fiat will charge me, I expect a lot but if anyone knws a place around London or South East that creates another fob and spare key at a good rate im all ears.
Thanks.

I had the same issue, can't remember exactly, but I don't think it was that expensive to buy a new fob, the rip off bit was the programming the transponder (or whatever it's called).

same happened to me

i think the new key cost about £120 in total!!

Thanks Chris, I have seen these key fobs go for cheap on ebay, and I have been tempted to go for one, but who can programme this to match the one I have for my car already.

Both spare key (the one without buttons) and the programming came from Fiat. You should have got a little credit card shaped card with a key code on it when you got the car, you'll need this to get the new key programmed.

I assume you can just open up the fob and change the battery without having to reset anything afterwards.
Nothing seems simple with this car, lol

Simple as that

Yes, just a small slot scrwdriver about half a turn. The fixing screw is on a cam lock, so dont think its a true thread and start unwinding the screw all the way or you will bust it and pay £120 for a new fob.

thank you so can i just change the battery. or do i need to reset it as well
