The most recent Acura models have key fobs, which operate on batteries, usually the CR2032 button cell battery, providing seamless access into the cabin. You can reach out to our Parts Centre to source the right type of batteries for your Acura key fob. Depending on the type of fob your Acura has, there's a different procedure for changing the battery. The most common key fobs available for Acuras include Acura Smart Key and Acura Keyless Remote.
