    My wife washed the key with soap after coming home from the market because of covid19 corona virus. After few days when i tried to open the car door it stopped working. With your video I opened it and give it good clean and used the hair dryer to dry the moist, it came back to the life. Thank you👍

    Double check the battery. Had a key that looked the same but took a CR2016 battery. Using a CR2025 battery would fit but would cause the buttons to push up against the case (and set off the alarm).

  • @Arrayarr
    @Arrayarr 3 года назад +1

    Batteries vary from year to year. Check the battery number once you get it apart! My 2015 Yaris fob uses a 2016 battery, not the one referenced in the video. Chris's instructions are otherwise on the money and very helpful. Plus his video quality and diction are much better than some the other videos I checked out.

    FYI, a dime or penny is what twist apart spots are designed for. AND in taking apart the inter box with 5 'clips'... the last 'clip' that you spent so much time fighting... next to it, is another 'insert coin' and twist spot... one twist and done. but TY for posting, more than I ever did on YT.

    My 2008 scion tc uses a cr2016 lithium battery. I watched your video, went to Walmart, replaced my dead key battery and now I can open the car doors remotely again. From the start of the video to Walmart to replacement, it took about 30 minutes. Thank you. $4.00 for two batteries. Will replace my other key battery also, which is dead.

    You just saved me a ton of money ! It worked. I needed to know how to take the Fob apart "carefully" to get to the battery. You are spot on. Thank you so very much for this most helpful and resourceful video.

  • @susanbyoung9548
    @susanbyoung9548 7 лет назад

    I owe you SO MUCH!!! Thanks a million! My key went through the wash by mistake, but I found this and followed the instructions (within 2 hours of washing). Took everything apart & dried. Somehow water had not got to the circuit board, though it got everywhere else. Cleaned (Qtips & microbrushes helped), put back together. Now the key works fine.

  • @mollymooks1
    @mollymooks1 6 лет назад +2

    Thank you for loading this. Such a relief to know I can fix my remote so easily. I did buy the CR2025 believing that no matter if its a CR2016 (which is thinner and what came out of my remote) it will be a stronger battery which I believed would be great for a longer range and longer lasting. Only problem was it was a tight squeeze to get it all shut then my buttons were jammed and couldn't be pressed. I guess there was no room to move with the thicker battery. Oh well no biggie - now I know how to replace. Appreciate your clear instructions . Annie NZ

    Thanks, Chris, for your tutorial. Your description was spot on.
    One little comment I'd like to add is to remind your viewers that the new battery could have a sticker that would prevent the remote from working once it is replaced.
    Just a head's up. 😁

    Make sure to check the battery before going out to buy one. Many commenters have said it is either a CR2025 or a CR2016 battery. In some cases people have replaced the CR2016 with a CR2015 without a problem and is totally fine. It is the same voltage but is just a bit thicker battery and is more powerful. The first 2 numbers of CR2016 means the battery is 20mm in diameter. The second 2 numbers is the thickness of the battery which means it is 1.6mm thick. This means that the CR2025 is the same diameter but is thicker by .9mm which is very little. The CR2025 battery has 165 mAh of power whereas the CR2016 has only 90 mAh of power. If you use a CR2025, it will last much longer but some people have said that the CR2025 is too tight and the buttons don't work as well. Like I say, check before buying to see what you have. Hope this helps to clarify the confusion. Either one might work.

  • @wspollack
    @wspollack 8 лет назад

    Chris: thank you for making this video. It was a tremendous help.
    A few minor changes were necessary for the key on my 2010 Camry SE. The factory battery was a 2016 (as opposed to the 2025 you mentioned). Also, rather than slide in and out of an opening on the end, the battery on my key is held in place by two arms of a little leaf spring; the battery is pushed against this spring when removed or inserted, in order to clear the little clips on the opposite side of the battery.
    But, as I said, you pointed me in the right direction, and it was a major help. Thanks.
