Open the Keypad
Then unscrew the screw on the bottom of the panel and separate the front of the keypad from the wall plate. If you do not already have a replacement battery you can get one here. Be careful not to lose the small screw you remove in this step and in the next step.
Remove and Replace

Then you just need to replace it with the new ADT Command Panel Battery and reattach the battery cover and screw. Lastly, reattach the keypad to the back wall plate and screw it back on.

If it does not automatically power back up then remove the plug from the outlet and plug it back in again.
