How to change the garage door remote battery?
First, you will need to gather the following supplies:

– A small Phillips head screwdriver
– A rag or paper towel (to clean up any battery acid that may spill)
Once you have gathered your supplies, follow these steps:
Step One:
Locate the garage remote. It is usually attached to a keychain. If you cannot find it, check your car’s glove box or center console. Once you have located the garage remote, look for a small Phillips head screw on the back of it. This is usually located in one of the corners.

Use the Phillips head screwdriver to remove the screw. Be careful not to lose the screw!
Step Three:
Gently pry open the back of the garage remote. You may need to use a flathead screwdriver for this step.
Step Four:
Remove the old remote battery and dispose of it properly. If there is any battery acid on the terminals, clean it off with the rag or paper towel.

Insert the new garage remote battery into the garage remote, making sure that the positive (+) side is facing up.
Step Six:

How long does a garage door remote battery last?
On average, a garage door remote battery will last for about six months to one year. Of course, this depends on how often you use your garage door and how well you take care of your garage remote. If you find that your garage remote batteries are dying quicker than they should, there are a few things you can do to try and prolong their life:
– Store your garage remote in a cool, dry place when you’re not using it. This will help to prevent the battery from leaking.
– Avoid dropping or banging your garage remote against hard surfaces.
– Do not expose your garage remote to extreme temperatures (hot or cold).
– Keep the terminals clean by wiping them down with a rag or paper towel every few months.
