Does anyone know how to charge the battery in the key fob or do I have to take it to the dealer and have them replace the battery? On my other cars there was a slot by the steering column where to charge it. I can't find it on my SHO?

Piece of cake.

First pull out the actual key in the fob

Then take a small screwdriver or anything else that can fit in the top slot

Gently pry up in the slot

Remove cover and replace battery


To install align the small tabs in their corresponding slots and push down until it clicks.

Worthy of a listing in the coveted "How To" section :)  Moved accordingly.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!
