amf1932 Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 Yes. All you do is remove the screw carefully so you don't lose it, then take out the old battery and replace it with a new one. Radio Shack has replacements. I'm sorry, but I don't have the battery number, but they can tell by the old battery the proper one to use.

es300ed Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 I have had to replace a battery twice in my 96 es300 keys. The first time the Lexus dealer parts department guy (I did not buy the car there) did the job for free. The second time (different key, probably different guy) they charged me something between $5 - $10. If you are already having something done, like an oil change, it's an easy way to get the battery replaced. Ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
