If you’re driving a 2019 Buick Enclave, chances are you love the convenience and sleek design of its key fob. But like all key fobs, the battery won’t last forever. A dying key fob battery can lead to frustrating situations, like being stranded in a parking lot, unable to unlock your car.

Don’t worry, changing the battery in your 2019 Buick Enclave key fob is a quick and easy process that you can do yourself at home. This guide will provide you with a step-by-step walkthrough, ensuring you’re back to enjoying seamless car access in no time.

What You’ll Need:

• A new CR2032 battery (easily found at most convenience stores or online)
• A small flat-head screwdriver
• A few minutes of your time

Step-by-Step Guide to Changing the Battery:

1. Locate the release button: On the back of your Buick Enclave key fob, you’ll find a small, round release button.
2. Release the key: Gently press the release button and simultaneously pull out the physical key hidden inside the fob.
3. Open the fob: With the key removed, you’ll notice a small slot where the key was inserted. Insert the flat-head screwdriver into this slot and gently pry open the two halves of the key fob. Be careful not to use excessive force, as this could damage the fob.
4. Replace the battery: Inside the fob, you’ll see the CR2032 battery. Carefully remove it and replace it with the new battery, ensuring the positive (+) side is facing up.
5. Reassemble the fob: Align the two halves of the key fob and press them together until you hear a click, indicating they’re securely closed.
6. Test the fob: Reinsert the physical key and test all the buttons (lock, unlock, remote start) to ensure the new battery is working correctly.
