If it's the terminal cover not a problem. If its the actual battery cell cover it could be such as splashing liquid.

The liquid (water) inside the battery turns to acid so, if it is the battery cell cover, plug or cover the filling holes until you get a new cell cap.

    I replaced the battery in my LS400. The vehicle starts fine, but none of the electronics seem to be working. No lights, windows, seats, can't get the transmission out of "Park". Any thoughts?
