Any drug store just a few $ - easy, unscrew, take out old - buy new (mine was $3.99) and put together

Any Autozone or automotive store should carry batteries.
Make sure you purchase a 3V CR1616 sized battery.

really? i opened it up and it was some crazy looking thing.
unless the battery was INSIDE of that . it was like a square shaped little box. i thought it was some kind of special battery or something.

Haha. What you were looking at is the transponder. It basically allows you to start the engine.
and yes, the battery is inside that. Only another 2 screws to get to it.

I went to radio shack as well. If you don't have the mini phillips, they will do it for you. At least they did it for me.
