    How do you open a battery compartment in pry?

    How do I open my remote control?

    Open the remote with a butter knife or another dull tool. Most remotes consist of 2 plastic halves. By separating the halves, you can access the internal electronics. Wedge the knife into the crack, pry up the cover, and use your hands to pop it off. Handle the remote carefully to avoid scratching it.
