BMW 3- Series Battery KEY Replacement & Re-Program KEY

NOTE: The key used in the video - BMW 325i.

Sorry for the crappy video quality. I just used a cheap webcam.

I called a BMW dealer in Monrovia, CA and asked for a key for my BMW 325i. They charging me $260.00 for a Key. I didn't get that deal because it's too expensive. So I searched the net and found some great deal that costs about $120 -BUT STILL EXPENSIVE. Then I decided to try something different. I done this thing by myself and it just costs me less than $10.00 because I already have some of the materials on my tool box. The only thing that I did buy is the battery which is the Duracell 2025 Lithium Coin Cell Battery - 3V. It's also available in other brands like Energizer. This isn't rechargeable battery but who cares? If it drains out then change it. That's why in this video I didn't seal it permanently.

This video also have a tutorial on how to re-program the BMW 3-series Key.

Please Don't copy this video. Just repost/share the same link. Thank you.

  • Hi all, I had a key not working either and thought it was the battery, but I re programmed it like the suggested at the end of the vid and it worked, no need to replace the battery..thank you mate well pleased!!

  • @thelordg you're welcome

  • I just spent an hour using an exacto knife on my key, and it has still not opened.

  • @HAPPYCATSS1 just repeatedly slice the sides. it's kinda hard to open it but if you put some pressure into it, the blade will cut through it.

  • can i use energizer battery "not rechargeable" CR2025 or not?

  • @moudmm just to be sure, you can use any VL2020 3volt battery even it's not rechargeable

see all
