I tried to watch the video. 18 minutes+ The guy just rambles on and on. What could have been a 2 minute video, was, after 9 minutes had just got to taking the covers off - and he never explained how. Must be rocket science. After the 9 minutes my eyes glazed over. Stopped the video playback. Alas, many You Tube videos are like that.
If it really is a CR2032, or anything vaguely similar, solder leads onto a replacement *now*, piggyback it into the circuit, and immediately take the original out of the circuit (before it gets warm bleeding the new one, and, well . ..).
Oh, and make sure you get a *real* brand of battery, and not something made in china (I have a tray of off-brand watch batteries where maybe one in 7 is usable for more than a few hours . ..)
What does it look like? (Score:3)
What does this battery look like? A coin cell in a socket? Wires that plug in? Soldered in? Voltage?

It's a CR2032 "coin" battery.
