Nobody had same issue, never?

Do you have comfort access?

If not, the batteries are not meant to be replaced as they are charged when slotted into the car. Comfort access keys are replaceable and do not recharge.

I just replaced batteries on both key remotes
I have comfort access on the car
It lasted 3 years

I have CA did you change your battery at dealer?

AndreyATC · 12-14-2010, 08:49 AM

No, just bought it (Energizer battery) of Amazon for $3 per pair
You can get one probably in any radio store
It's used in calculators and other devises

Just pulled it off my order:

If you do not have comfort access, your key will be recharge whenever it is insert to the slot.

If I have comfort access, can I still plug it in for recharge?

Nope, it is not a rechargable battery.

Non-ca fob is rechargable.

Correct

I have slight idea:
If it was rechargable on CA-fob, it would run out of charge pretty soon, because i never take the fob out of my pocket when i drive.
So i would never be charging it
