What Kind of Battery for Remote Control.

[RickyB]

My 2012 Cougar has remote control for slideouts. I can't find the battery kind or number on or in remote. It was without battery when I bought it. Can anyone help me out. Thank you.

There were at least three different remote systems installed in the 2012 Cougar line. Posting a picture of your remote or posting any numbers from the back of the remote may help members identify what you need.

The battery length looks right at 1" long. I can't find any numbers on remote. It has velcro patch on back. Maybe that hides any numbers. There should be two pictures here.

A pic of the remote would help. I have a remote from my 2016 Cougar-- had 2 and forgot one when it was sold.

Here's another try at pictures.

My 2014 Cougar remote looks very similar to yours. Mine uses a CR2 3V lithium battery. Our local WalMart has them on their battery rack near the front registers. Here's the WalMart link: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Energizer-Lithium-CR2-Battery/887735?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=0&adid=22222222227022686113&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=52384540271&wl4=aud-310687322322:pla-50623530655&wl5=200693&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=8175035&wl11=online&wl12=887735&wl13=&veh=sem

Thank you very much. I'll measure it's length at the Walmart. Sure hope it works.

We have a different remote, which we don't use, but the battery looks like 1/2 of a AAA battery, but is a 12 volt A23 battery.

Found this on Lippert's site:

Looks like yours does indeed need a "CR2 3V lithium battery".

Thank you Aaron. That's my remote alright. I ordered a 2 pack on Amazon & supposed to arrive tomorrow.

I just replaced mine. It uses a number 2C 3volt.

Thank you. I replaced it and happy to see remote power up. Now to try it at the 5er.
