How do you change a battery in a Toyota Avalon key fob?
My key fob for my Toyota hasn't been working lately, and I think it needs a new battery. Can I do it myself or do I need to take it somewhere?

You should be able to change the batteries yourself if you have a small flathead screwdriver and a new battery.
Here’s how:
- Press the metal ignition key release button on the side of your key fob
- Slide out the key and set it aside
- Insert a flathead screwdriver into the notch where the metal ignition key was
- Gently separate the halves of the key fob
- Replace the dead battery with a new one
- Reassemble the fob
If you can change your key fob battery at home, you should be able to find the best
car insurance
rates from home, too. The Jerry
app makes this process easy and fast by collecting quotes for you, so you can choose the policy that’s best for you.View full answer
