Default Yamaha SPX50D Battery Replacement

I have an old Yamaha SPX50D effects unit that is giving me a Low
Battery message. Not surprising given it's age. The battery is the
typical CRxxxx disc type but the connectors as spot welded? on to it
covering up the battery part number. Does anyone know what battery
this takes? I've been searching to no avail.



These are the most comon types:

There are several variants, some with only 2 connectors, some with different
pin spacing etc. They solder onto the PCB, those spot welded connections
are part of the battery.

Most audio manufacturers use 3volt 2032 type lithium coin cells, this is
what you should be looking for.

If you really want to make sure you get a drop in replacement, get one from
Yamaha.
