In this tutorial, I will guide you through the process of opening up your Toyota Corolla key fob and replacing the internal battery at home. This is a simple DIY task that only requires a regular flathead screwdriver and a CR2016 battery.
If you need to purchase the CR2016 battery, you can find it online. Check the description for a link to buy it from Amazon at an affordable price.
Step-by-Step Guide:
1. Start by locating the side of the key fob where the key ring attaches. There is a small indentation in the plastic on this side. Carefully insert the flathead screwdriver into the indentation and twist to open the fob. Ensure the Toyota symbol on the back of the device is facing up.
2. Once the fob is open, remove the cover and the buttons. Be cautious with the buttons as they can easily fall out.
3. Look for a space between the black and clear plastic on the bottom of the fob. Insert the screwdriver or a coin into the space and twist to open the fob further.
4. Remove the black component from the rubber and carefully pry out the old CR2016 battery using the flathead screwdriver. Make sure to note the orientation of the battery before removing it.
5. Insert the new CR2016 battery, ensuring the positive side with the plus sign is facing up. Secure the battery in place.
6. Reassemble the key fob by putting the components back together in the reverse order of disassembly.
7. Once everything is back in place, the key fob is ready to use with its new battery.
