Carter the Car Guy shows you how to quickly replace your Toyota key fob battery in this episode of the McPhillips Toyota Car Guide.

Three step process with three tools: Your key fob, a Flathead screwdriver and a replacement battery. This process works with most Toyota key fobs dating from 2007 - 2018.

Let us know if you have any questions along the way!

Thank you so much. My husband, who used to change out our batteries, passed away early July, and of course now there is so much I am learning to do myself.

Just to let people know. The battery is cr2032

Aloha. Thanks for the video instructions. I couldn't figure out how to change the battery so was going to stop by Toyota to have them change the battery and told myself "Wait a minute. There must be instructions on YouTube." Lo and behold, used Google to get the link and your video popped up. Easy to follow instructions. Battery size and type is right on the battery itself - easy to buy at Walmart, Target, and most food stores. Thanks for saving me $$$.

OK - I don't get to help your business since I live half a world away in Singapore, but this video was a lifesaver this morning when the thousandth "low battery" reminder from the car prompted me to finally figure out how to switch batteries ! Thanks so much for taking the time to make it ! :)

FYI you can use the key to pop out the battery the same way you used it to split the two halves of the FOB. No screwdriver required :)

Buddy guy, why can't people make more videos like you, clear and to the point, keep making more videos please, your the best.

Thank you. This works with the 2014 Toyota Camry Hybrid HL key fob, that uses the cr2032 "button" battery.

Step 2.5, take note of which direction the dead battery is facing before removing it.

Thank you. Worked for 2017 Rav4. Battery: CR 2032

[SandraCarrollSandy]

Excellent and easy to follow directions! Thank you so very much!

[darkelly]

Thank you!! I couldn't figure out where the opening was to replace the battery. I watched your video, and luckily for me, I had the battery I needed. It was replaced in 5 minutes! You saved me a trip to the Toyota dealer which is where I was headed to figure this out.

[GarryNeeman]

Excellent! I planned to go to a shop to get the battery replaced but then figured I could find some online instructions to follow. Thanks from Melbourne, Australia!

[jeffreykwan]

Thanks! This worked perfectly as described for my 2016 Rav4 Hybrid's key fob. CR2032 battery.

[desertwolfarmory]

Lmao if you are going to replace the battery at least say what battery it is

[AymanFadel]

thank you from a Toyota customer in Augusta, Georgia, USA

[Feeoryne]

Thank you for this video... It would be nice if you show what type of battery is needed and then show us how to put it back together.

[hanksteenstra]

Excellent! Made it easy to change the FOB battery.

[gortklatu]

Great video! Thanks. Saved me a lot of hassle when my 2017 Highlander suddenly flashed that my key fob battery was low. I was thinking, "Now what?"

[davidselvenis]

I wish you showed a closer view of where you pried the case open as not to damage the case. Thanks
