What do you mean take it apart? It's probably that the battery is not seated correctly. Even with no battery at all, you should be able to start the car just by holding the fob close to the start button.

i mean open it and move the battery around. cant even open the door or use the pad to unlock or lock. when i go in the car with the key it doesnt even detect the key. i tried pushing the key to the start button but nothing happens.

BTW, I bought new batteries from Radio Shack - much less than at Lexus, FWIW.
