You can get one at the local hardware shop for less than £5.

Normally you don't need to reprogram it but if it fails to work just press and hold both buttons until the indicators answer back.

When fitting the Battery, hold it across the edges and not on the flats.

Job done.

They are dead easy to change. I was advised to change them every two years. You just need a fine screwdriver.

Battery type is a CR1616.
