  • Test the battery using a multimeter or other battery tester. Replace if battery produces less than 3 volts.​

2. Identifying the Battery Contacts​

  • The negative contact, sitting on the battery compartment floor, resembles a fork.​

  • The positive contact, standing against one side of the compartment, follows the compartment’s contour and is roughly V-shaped.

3. Bend the Negative Contact Slightly Upward

  • Carefully slide the jeweler’s screwdriver under the middle fork of the contact. Avoid damaging the surface of the circuit board to which it is mounted.​

  • Lift the contact slightly; a millimeter at most. The contact need be raised only as much as is necessary to allow it to remain raised once the screwdriver is removed.​
