....about opening the key fob to get to the battery. Some people referred to a video showing how to use a corkscrew to poke into the small hole on the side of the fob to pry open the panel covering the battery. I suppose that works, but worked really well for me was to just take the smallest flat blade screwdriver (1.4mm) from one of those small precision screwdriver sets and just poke that in the hole and carefully pry upward. The flat blade depresses the plastic tab that latches the cover and then once the cover comes up a millimeter or so, then use the same screwdriver to just finish working the cover off. Took no time at all.
