2001 Toyota Avalon. Basically I walked out to the car tonight, and the remote failed to unlock it. Had to unlock it manually. I turn the key and I get nothing. No turn over, no lights, nothing. Dome lights are out, radio's out, everything electrical is gone.
Suffice to say I'm looking at replacing it myself, as I need this done fast, but it's my first time doing this. Judging from a few how-tos I've found and my own inspection of the battery, doesn't look like rocket science, and I have the tools.
Suffice to say the two dealers within walking distance are Sears Hardware and Pepboys. Sears seems to trump the DieHard, while pepboys has the ProStart. Any major differences? Any unrelated tips?
Thanks in advance.
