Battery type and confirmation
The 2008 Fit's remote key fob typically uses a standard CR2032 3-volt coin-cell battery. In some regional variants, CR2025 may appear, so verify by inspecting the battery inside if possible or checking the current battery’s markings.
Replacement steps
To replace the battery, you’ll need a new CR2032 and a small flat-head screwdriver or a similar tool to pry the fob apart.
- Carefully pry apart the two halves of the key fob using a small flat-head screwdriver or the edge of a coin, pressing the release tab if present.
- Remove the old battery and note its orientation (positive side up).
- Insert a new CR2032 battery with the correct orientation (positive side facing up).
- Snap the fob halves back together and test the remote by pressing the buttons to ensure it unlocks/locks as expected.
With the battery replaced, reassemble the fob fully and verify proper operation of the remote before relying on it again.
Tips and troubleshooting
If the remote still doesn’t work after battery replacement, try re-synchronizing the fob with the car as described in the owner's manual or contact a dealer for programming assistance.
