Default Does anybody know what size/kind of battery for the Key on 96 ES?

I was wondering if anybody knows the type of battery the key for the keyless entry uses. One of my keys is dead and the other is starting to go. I checked the manual and it says to call the dealership which seems ridiculous. I wont be able to open it till friday when i get to borrow my friends precision screw driver to open it up. thanks

You can always open the shell and open the remote module to check - I think it might even be specified on the back of the remote module (DON'T lose those little, teensy screws!)

Found this in the FSM for a 97-01 - is your remote in the key or a FOB?
BR 1216 in key
CR 2016 FOB
