How to change key fob battery dodge journey

This automotive maintenance tutorial was specifically written to assist owners of the 1st generation (2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 & 2014) Dodge Journey SUV in changing the battery in the "Keyless Enter-N-Go" smart key fob remote control.

Owners of other Chrysler, Dodge and RAM vehicles with similar key fobs such as the Town & Country, 300, 200, Avenger, Challenger, Charger, Dart, Durango, Grand Caravan, Ram C/V Tradesman and 1500 may also find these DIY instructions to be helpful.

A replacement "coin" cell (A.K.A. "button" or "watch") battery is part number CR2032 from manufacturers such as Panasonic, Sony, GE, Energizer and Maxell.

The only tool needed to change the old battery is a small flathead screwdriver used to pry apart the two halves of the fob.

Re-insert the metal ignition key in to its slot until it clicks securely in to place.

Test the new key fob battery by standing next to your Journey and pressing the "Unlock" or "Lock" buttons.

If the new battery is working properly, you should see the parking lights flash and hear the door locks opening or closing.
