New case for car remote key fob
Daughter has a Renault Clio and the thin membrane over the buttons has
eventually fallen away exposing the small buttons on the PCB. I have ordered a replacement case for £2.50. Surely there will be no snags.......? |

I've just received one for a Nissan http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1821710672...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT My mate is bringing this key round later for me to fix, one of the microswitches has disintegrated as well as the membrane, but in this kit they are included. I'll let you know how I get on. I'm a hero in his eyes, he was convinced he would have to pay £££ for a new key. -- Graham. %Profound_observation% |

I thought of getting the kit with the little micro switches, but they seem to be working so I will avoid the risk. I suppose a shop that does laptop and tablet repairs would be a good source of specialist soldering support though if needed. |

Soldering the switches needed a fine bit. No problem for me, but probebly not a job for a beginner. -- Graham. %Profound_observation% |
