    Thank you. I watched other videos trying to figure out how to change the battery and they made it so complicated. Your video was straightforward, easy to follow and I successfully changed the battery in both of my key fobs. Five stars to you. You made this old lady happy. 😀

    One of the best and helpful tutorials I have seen on RUclips. I've only had the RAV4 for a year (I bought it used) and got the notice on the dash that the battery needed to be replaced. I had no idea how to do it or if it had to be done at a dealership. Thanks to the simple, well-enunciated verbal instructions, I had the task completed in less than two minutes. Thank you!

    Useful tutorial.
    The fob for my 2021 RAV4 Prime uses a different battery: CR2450.

    Just found this tutorial, and just changed the battery in my fob. I've literally never opened a key fob before, and following the steps in your video, the entire process took me less than 5 minutes. Thank you for posting this!

    Thank you so much for posting this. My fob gave up on me today. I used my metal nail filer to pry it open. You are saving lives still. God bless.

    Better than others videos I've tried. FobBattery speaks clearly and not too fast. His voices sounds like a midwestern
    non-accent, which used to be the news anchors' voice. He holds the fob so that its parts and the battery are clearly visible.

    Thank you very much for posting this. This morning I got a message from my RAV4 saying that the key fob battery needed to be replaced. After watching your video, I replaced the battery in both of our key fobs.

    You can also use the key to seperate the case, it fits nicely in that rectangle cavity.

    5-Stars - I reviewed the video to ensure I purchased the 2032 battery for the key fob. Replaced both of my key fobs which took less than 1 minute. Excellent point about using a small screwdriver to remove the battery. You have to be careful or you can brake off the tabs that hold the battery in place and that would really suck! The most important note is to be very careful when opening the case because it's plastic. And we all know that plastic can easily break. And finally, if your car notifies you that your key fob battery is getting low, replace it immediately. You don't want to be someplace and it go completely dead. Or you have been left up the creek without a paddle by the bank.

    How often should I replace the battery? Every two years or more? I liked the way you explain it. So easy. I tried to figure it out by myself with no knowledge on how to do it and I was a nervous rack. I had the worst-case scenario in my mind while doing it. So, I stopped and went to RUclips. Best choice I ever made in this case. Thank you for your instruction.

    • @malcolmtaylor111
      @malcolmtaylor111 2 года назад +3

      I'm sure you have figured this out by now, this is more for the people that read this later. You should get a dash warning that your key fob battery is low.

  • @fantasticsound2085
    @fantasticsound2085 2 года назад +2

    One other point I don't think was mentioned, when you open the clam shell, be careful not to lose the spring that actuates the physical key release. That button on the outside you push to remove the key. We just bought a used Toyota and when we receive the smart key fob, it had been taped up because the spring was missing on that latch. I was a little miffed the dealer hadn't replaced it as there was only one key fob, but a call about this and one other issue a day after we purchased the vehicle and the dealer ordered us a brand new key fob at no cost and programmed it. As soon as my partner came home with the new key, I found your tutorial, popped open the clam shell, and jammed a piece of a ballpoint pen spring in the space. It works great, but I need to find a smaller spring that fits in the retaining shaft of the button. It works great and will continue to do so, but I run the risk of losing the replacement spring when we change the battery.

      I'm a Toyota tech and DON'T recommend using the emergency key to open the key fob
      If you damage it,it may damage what you need for an emergency
      Use a small screwdriver to open case.

    Great! Simple enough, as it should be. Another video (the first google result I found) warned me not to stick a screw driver in the slot to separate the 2 sides because we wouldn't want to damage the circuitry, and would have had me cutting up my credit card to make a special tool to pry them apart. Luckily for me, a letter opener works just as well, as that's what was handy at my desk.
