One of my keys wont start my car and the red key symbol lights up in my dash. I think it's because I need a new battery for the key. Do you know if I can change the battery myself or do I have to bring it to the dealer?

thanks,
 
I think you can just pop your I-key cover off and change the battery. I have done so for my 03 for many times without any issues. For 03, the battery is 2032 lithium battery. Not to sure about 05+ model.
 
2032 is the one for 05 as well. Very easy to replace, just remove the key from the holder, and pop open the case using a screw driver. Battery is available at Walmart for about 3 bucks.
 
2025 for my '07, should be the same for you. Replaced it about a month ago. Kinda hard to finally pry the damn thing apart and the plastic is a little messed up now.
 
its easy to do, i replaced the battery on our FX a couple months ago. just get a small screw driver and remove the key then on the bottom you'll see a small slit that can be pryed open with the screwdriver then voila access to your battery.
