If your MINI key fob is becoming less responsive, it may be time to replace the battery. Start by removing the integrated key from the fob, then use it to carefully open the battery compartment. Remove the old battery and replace it with a new battery of the same type, making sure the positive and negative sides are positioned correctly. Snap the cover back into place and reinsert the key. Test the buttons to make sure your key fob is working properly. Battery type and replacement steps may vary by MINI model and key fob.
