Remove the Battery

For reference, here's what the key fob for our Camry looks like. Some trim lines have a keyless fob, but ours uses a key as shown below.

Pry the cover off using a small flat head. There's a small indentation near the key ring loop. It doesn't take much force.

Install a New Batter

6

Install a new CR2032 Battery.

The battery installs flat side up (as shown above). It's very easy, but it helps if you first insert the edge nearest the Toyota logo on the fob, then push the battery up and into the fob.

7

Install the orange rubber cover. The textured side goes down.

8

Install the battery cover. It just clips back into place. Just be careful not to break any of the little plastic tabs.

9

Test the fob by unlocking and locking the car.
