Worked on my cousin’s Yamaha Alpha—might work for mine too.

My Yamaha Alpha's been in the garage for a week over this. Thanks!

Anyone try this on a Yamaha Alpha with push-button start?

Good luck to everyone dealing with Yamaha Alpha key issues!

This forum is more helpful than my dealer. Thanks from a Yamaha Alpha owner.

Key Fob Issues
1) Find the seam and pry open the fob (some have tiny screws) 2) Note battery orientation 3) Remove old battery (CR2032 is most common) 4) Insert new battery 5) Reassemble. Test all buttons - if issues remain, the fob may need reprogramming.
Key Fact: Smart keys use radio frequencies between 125 kHz and 2.4 GHz
