Changing the battery

Smart key (push-button start)

  1. Most push-button fobs hide a metal backup key. Press or slide its catch and draw the key out first.
  2. The gap left by the metal key usually has a pry point. A slow twist with a thin flat tool (tape on the tip saves the plastic) opens the two halves.
  3. Pop the old battery out with a toothpick or plastic pick, not a metal blade, and seat the new one with the + side matching the old one.
  4. Close the case until it clicks all the way round, put the metal key back, then try the buttons and a push-button start.

On most Toyota smart keys the metal key slides out after you press a small release, and the case opens at the slot it leaves behind.

A CR1632 is 16 mm across and 3.2 mm thick. It is easy to confuse with the 20 mm CR20xx sizes, which will not fit.

A CR2025 is 20 mm across and 2.5 mm thick. CR2032, CR2025 and CR2016 share the same width but not the same thickness, so a swap between them can leave a loose contact or a case that will not close.

A CR2450 is 24.5 mm across and 5.0 mm thick, much fatter than a CR2032. A thinner cell will rattle and lose contact, so buy the exact size.

Coin cells are a choking and burn hazard for children. Store the spares in their original pack, out of reach.
