The easiest way is to get a new FOB case off the bay of E. Finding a bit of spring brass strip of the right dimensions is not going to be easy.
It's not sprung though
so would just bend eventually?
Been looking. All the ones I've found don't have the strip in them.
It's not sprung though
.
Can you post a photo of the broken bit? I may have a spare you can have.
Its the little bit that fits in the battery holder. What the + goes down onto and then comes up the side and when you turn the holder into place engages the tang that makes the circuit
This bit
You have to be careful, a lot of the holders don't come with the metal strip in. Have found one which is just selling the holder with strip but at £14 the Yorkshire man in me begrudges paying that.This bit

I'll have a look today, I'm sure to have one in the FOB's from my scrapper.You have to be careful, a lot of the holders don't come with the metal strip in. Have found one which is just selling the holder with strip but at £14 the Yorkshire man in me begrudges paying that.
I have some thin sheeting about the same thickness so going to have a go at making one first. If it works great if not will have to bight the bullet and spend.
Cheers Keith
Couldn't you get, a yard square of the metal sheet of thickness required off the local scrap metal merchant. Then hone down the sheet to the required size
for the scrap metal merchant to weigh and buy back
Once again Keith is the star man. Sent me the metal strip for my fob. Now have 2 working fobs again. many thanks @Datatek
