Replace Hyundai Key Fob Battery
If your smart key(key FOB) for your 2012 Hyundai Sonata has stopped working, then the problem is most likely the battery. It is pretty simple to replace it and I show you step by step in this video. The procedure shown in the video should also work for similar model year Kia vehicles.

I'm glad I've been able to help so many people with this video. If you would like to say thanks you can help me a lot by using my Amazon affiliate link in the description of the video if you need to purchase the battery for the remote. You can also use the link to do any shopping on Amazon's site and I will get a small amount of money from the purchase, it doesn't cost you anything. I don't want you to feel obligated, I really am glad that this video has helped so many people, thanks.
Thanks mate. I was able to do it on the Elantra too
Thank you so much,it really helped me,great video
Yay! This was so easy. I thought I had to go to the dealership to get a new remote. Thank you google and thank you for posting this video!
The directions were clear and easy to follow. Thanks.
Thank you. Saved me a trip to the dealer today. Much appreciated.
Wow! This helped me a lot! I had the battery replaced at the shop, but the guy that sold it installed the battery upside down. I have called the dealer with questions and they told me to tow the car over to re-program the remote. It cost +/- $150. I decided to youtube it and on this video shows the way the battery should be. I opened the remote fixed the battery and worked!! Thank you so much guys !!
Much appreciated better than the Manufacturers video plain and straight to the point.
Actually, you don't need a screwdriver to open the phobe remote. You can use the end of the key in the smaller slot next to the actual key slot at the top of the remote. Just press, twist, and it will separate and open. 🙂 Nice video though.
Great! So clear and well-paced. Thanks for what seemed might be a complicated solution.
Simply Thank you 🙂
I paid like 6 dollars for one battery at cvs
ya le cambie la baterÃa y ahora como lo programo de nuevo
Hello there I liked you video and thank you , have a question for you Im facing the issue that when I get off the car after I lock the car (elantra2013 gt) theres a message by the odometer saying key is not in the car I press the remote con trol key from out side but the message still is there do you have any idea what it would be the problem?
Would this work for veloster turbo 15?
Just changed the batteries for a 2013 Santa Fe Sport, excellent video, was the easier thing to change, thank you so much
Even better, buy an American Made FORD! The key fob that came with my Ford Ranger I purchased new in March 1996 was still working in Nov 2014 when I sold it! Both of them.
Nice video.
Funny, I was even randomly using the exact same Thorsen screwdriver. I already had a 10 pack of Sony batteries from Amazon ($4.24), so it only cost me 42 cents per fob. Cheers!
I have a 2015 sonata. When I took apart the remote, one side had the key contacts and one side had the circuit board. Did they change something or did I not do it right?
Edit: There's an extra step. You now have to remove the circuit board to get to the battey.
Thank you your quick and easy explanations on how to change my battles. I did it successfully thank you
Thank you for making this. I live in the boonies and would have felt really dumb if I had driven an hour and a half into town to go to the dealership. You saved me time, hassle and embarrassment.
Helped a lot.. Great.. Thanks Buddy.
