Nissan Rogue key fob battery: common questions
What battery does the Nissan Rogue key fob take?
- A single CR2032 coin cell.
Can you use a CR2032 instead of a CR2025 in a Nissan Rogue key fob?
- This fob takes a CR2032, so start there. The two cells share a 20 mm diameter but differ in thickness, and the thicker one does not always seat in a housing built for the thinner.
How do you open a Nissan Rogue key fob?
- Slide out the mechanical emergency key first, which usually releases a catch, then part the halves with a plastic pry tool or a coin wrapped in tape. A screwdriver will mark the case and can crack the seam.
