Wow. I can’t believe how easy you made this. I replaced both key fob batteries in less than five minutes. Batteries and bulbs wanted to charge me $24 plus the cost of the batteries $6. Nice trick about the end of the key. Thank you so much!
OMG, THANK YOU SO MUCH for posting this video-My key fob died, and after I took the hidden key out, I had no idea how to get it open, or that the key also worked as a clever little tool to open it with, which is a great idea! I had tried three different kinds of screwdrivers to pry it open with, but nothing was working and I was afraid I might break it, so I decided to look here on TH-cam-and that’s how I found your video! I didn’t even notice that it had that key slot until you showed it. I do wish that the dealership had showed me how to do this when I first got it, Instead of trying to get me to come in to have them do it for me? I’m assuming that it’s not done for free. Either way, I’m grateful that you did!
I have no clue why there's that one deranged hate comment. This was quick and straightforward, I revisit this every time I change my key battery. Thank you. ♡
Thank you Soo much! I went to CVS got the 1632 battery and installed it as shown in the video. As a divorced single mother videos like this is essential! Blessings to you and your family 👍
I really appreciate you making this video. I was absolutely ignorant about how to replace the battery. Your video has not only shown me how to do this, but I now know the exact battery to get. Many thanks!
perfect video, thanks! love that you even included that bit about the parts going flying, cause that’s exactly what happened to me and i panicked a little thinking i had broken it lol
Excellent evergreen video content Chris! Thanks for the thorough tutorial on battery replacement. Your presentation of the details totally removed my anxiety of replacing the battery and saved more than a few $$ compared to having Lexus do it I'm sure! Best, Matt
Perfect video. I kept getting the message on the dash cluster that said “Key Battery Low with both key fobs so of course I hit TH-cam after not seeing any clear way to pop the halves apart. Your video was the easiest to follow especially using the tip of the hidden key trick but you missed something. That rubber cover sheet has a single tiny post molded into it which drops into a tiny matching hole in the front half of the shell where the buttons are. It’s in the lower right corner as you look at things in your video where you’re dropping the rubber sheet over the buttons and points downward. I didn’t go by the shape of the rounded corners, with that little rubber post and that tiny hole, the rubber can only drop in one way and sit flush in the front half before placing in the circuit board. Overall though, a very easy job which took minutes and no more error message in the dash cluster.
Funny thing I was going to work today as any other day and my key fob battery died, I sprinted around looking for a battery and freaking out on how to open they fob. I looked on TH-cam and there you were to save me
I am so glad the motherboard didn't stay in the top as that is how mine looked when I opened it. I thought, where does the battery go? Thank you so much for this video!
perfect video. nothing unnecessary was added and very concise and to the point. thank you so much for this video! extremely helpful. don't know why someone would give a negative review... some people just are negative by nature i guess.
is there a reason why you took the other side apart? Can't I just pop the old battery out of the one side and place back in? What was the purpose of taking apart the various pieces, besides just replacing the battery? Thank you.
thanks buddy mine is a bit different I have to slide the housing off then removing 4 screws which covers the battery nevertheless the battery model is the same.
Thank you so much. Just bought 2011 LS 460 and 1 of the key fob battery is dead. Didn't even checked when I was there today. I guess i can replace the batt myself. :)
Guys, just to NOTE that in my GX460 2014 the battery replaced is VERY differently: the plate with "L" just slides out and there the small compartment for the battery, with the door on 4 bolts (tiny screwdriver is needed). RESPECT and like to the Author of the vid, but remember: if any doubt or difference between your key fob and the vid - do not apply any force, look for the other solution :)
What if my battery says Duracell dl1632? Could I still use a panasonic cr1632 or is there a distinct difference? I can’t really find duracell dl1632, only Duracell cr1632 😭
Any 1632 battery is all you need. Duracell did that years ago to make people think they needed a battery with the "DL" at the start. That just mean "Duracell". Just a marketing ploy.
Im borrowing an older LS and I think the key fob battery died, as it's not unlocking/locking the car. I see it has a key that slides out but where does the key go? I can't see any keyholes on the doors. I'm not within walking distance of a battery store so any advice would be appreciated! thanks
That key that pulls out of the key fob is to unlock the door. There is a little cover on the door handle on the drivers side. You pop it off and you can unlock the door with the key. You then bring the key fob right up to the start button as close as you can then push the start button (with the fob still as close as you can) and It will start the car.
You'll easily find the battery here !
