Can anyone tell me what size/part number of the battery for my remote control key fob ?( 2002 Ford Focus) It's a standard 3 button key fob, but I dont want to open it before I have the new batteries in hand. My local Ford garage no longer exists and the nearest is 30 miles away. Thanks.

    Go to your local Timpsons/Mister Minit and ask. They will be more than happy to help - and probably cheaper.
  • I have a focus and just changed the battery on my key fob it was a button battery number 2032 .I got mine from halfords they are just in front of the tills they have all got various numbers written on them i opened my key fob up in the shop the old one will have a number printed on it

    Still reckon the battery will be cheaper from Timpsons than Halfrauds.

    I used to work for Timpsons - but do not anymore.
