Keyfob batteries need replacement

My remote locking on my 2007 Subaru has failed. Can I replace the batteries in the keys without paying the dealer an arm and a leg?

Usually if the batteries fail the key loses its code. Usually you have 10 seconds to replace the battery so have to have it ready. Try this. If it works, okay. If it doesn't, dealer or specialist job.
