Crazy, the Dealership told me that I would have to pay $100 for a whole new key. Paid 6$ for a new battery and all is well. You saved me $94. Defiantly subbing

My wife told me today she had a problem with her key and was thinking about taking it to the dealer to get the battery changed. I guess we saved time and money with this tutorial. It took no more than 15 mins. picking up a battery at a nearby store and replacing the old one. Thank you very much. Very useful and detailed tutorial.

I swear, I already tried these exact steps multiple times and the damn thing still wasn't working. Then I followed along with you, step by step, and like magic! it's working! Thank you!

Perfect video. Didn't take up a bunch of time talking about it, just got down to how it's done. Thank you very much!

Thank you for the clear, concise instruction. I appreciate that you filmed up close with the white background for better viewing.

The battery for my 2017 Rav4 was a CR2032 and the reason I know this is because the last time I went to a car part place the salesman put it in for me and there were 2 in the package and I still had the 2nd battery. But thank you for your video as I couldn't remember how to take the key fob apart.

I have followed your steps and replaced the battery in no time. Thank you

Your tutorial was so simple! I worked at a dealership and know how valuable this video is. Ordered a sleeve of CR2016 from Amazon ($3 and change for a 5pack).Followed the steps...took me less than a minute. Took more time getting the battery out of its protective casing ;-) Posted on Facebook how your video helped. Just finished my other key. Only a matter of time before it dies. Thank you so much...Great Video.

Also don't forget to never throw batteries away. Most libraries and recycling centers will take them, or will at least know how to dispose off them properly!

Top notch video - No chaff and all information - Thanks for sharing!

[Rockshredder]

Great clear video. It saved me some time trying to replace the battery without instructions. Thanks!

Great video. Used coins (dime & nickel) to pop the cases. Replaced the battery in kind (expiration date was 2033) and reassembled. Works great and saved $244.99 from my local hardware store key maker. Dealer prices are $400+. Thanks again!! By the way I checked the new button battery voltage which was 3.3 volts so it was not past it's expiration date.

I was able to successfully change out my batteries in both fobs. Very easy to follow. Thank you.

Still helpful years later! Clear and concise, great video.

This was super concise and useful. Thx a ton!
My 2017 Rav 4's was only working like 30% of the time. You bailed me out from manual/old school door opening. Lol

[connectingspirit]

My friend's Toyota Rav 4 -2017 didn't take a CR 2016, but rather a CR 2032 was there. Simple enough, we got that one. Cool video, super simple and clear instructions.

I thought this was a special procedure only done at the dealer. Bad service advisor for sure! Thank you for including the RAV4 year range. U R D best. Thank 😊
