TL Switchblade Key FOB - How to Change Battery?
I have a TL Switchblade key that I am using with my '04 TL.
I am curious if anybody knows how to change the battery in this fob? There is a screw to open it, but the "button module" seems sealed and I don't want to break it. Curious if somebody knows the trick. This is the style FOB I am referring to - http://i3.ebayimg.com/07/i/001/16/19/7d8b_1.JPG |
Check the manual. I'm like 90% sure the instructions are in there.

I was looking at mine and it looks like there is a small Philips screw on the end of the FOB where the ring is for a key ring. I'm sure if you unscrew that you will able to open and change the battery.......:wish:

Although, as I was typing that - I did think that you should be able to look at an 07-08 manual and find it in there. Check online for it. |

Are you sure you are talking about the switchblade key?
This key has a little sealed module that the battery must be within. The problem is that there is no obvious way to open the module. The Acura dealer said nobody has come in for a replacement battery, so they have no idea how to do it. Help! |

Hold on, question! Where did you get ur switchblade key for 04 TL? I asked the dealer if the 07-08 switchblade key would work for my 06 TL, their responded "No, they wouldn't fit" The reason I ask, cuz I always want swtichblade key instead of one remote and one key :tomato:

csmeance, once you add the pics, could you save this as a DIY in the 3g garage? This looks like great info. Once/if my battery dies, I'd love to be able to find this thread quickly. thnx
