Based on some questions seen on the forums from time to time, I took the opportunity to make this quick video. Please excuse the spelling typos at the end. Smile

Last ride was about freezing temps and I was getting a low key fob warning. So yesterday I watched the video and swapped out the battery. Old one was at 2.8 volts. Looks like I'm good for the summer now. Thanks, Grumpy, for the tutorial.

You are most welcome, sir. Smile

Guess what ... I'll let you in on a little secret ... I also have to refer to my own videos to see how to do some of the more seldom things. Big Grin

Since I have delicate girly hands Smile I wear gloves when popping open our fob cases.
It takes strong thumbs to open the case.
