Today, replace the battery of the key fob for the Toyota Prius by following the instructions below. First, take the key fob in hand and remove the physical key from inside it; then, leverage the slot created to open the fob into two parts, thus accessing the battery and the electronic board, as shown in the video.

At this point, remove and install the new battery, inserting it the right way round (in this case, a CR 2032 3V); then secure the two halves of the fob and test its functionality!
