See control panel battery page 458
See also 16G8095
A little searching shows that part was popular and still in use on Power 6's
I believe it is a CR2450 (based on the link below). IBM will sell you one
for $83.50.

Good call. Those things do wear out. IIRC it’s a battery pack that
looks like three AAs.

I vaguely recall seeing something like that in our 40S, and/or in our
CISC boxes (all long-gone), but the only battery I've seen in a 170
(either in the manual or in the physical box) is a 2450 coin cell.
