Don't go near it with panel wipes or brake cleaner
I would use Isoproplyl Alcohol, but I drank it all with tonic ;-)Don't go near it with panel wipes or brake cleaner

That would be a good cleaner as long as you leave the tonic out
Have replied to Dan so hopefully we can get his fob back up to scratch.
One thing above anything else to ask is never, ever use WD40 on any fob. In all cases, microwitches are not failing to work because they require lubrication, they are failing because they are physically degraded or have cracked solder joints. From someone who repairs quite a few fobs, finding one swimming in WD40 is only second in the infuriation stakes to finding one where the owner has superglued the switches back on !

p38 's are like a good woman and like to be indulged so as this this method works on my lady I will keep indulging her
Hello all. I just thought I would provide a quick update on my keyfob issue.
I sent the fob away to FOBFIX for repair. My need was for a minimalist repair as my FOB was in good cosmetic nick.
They actually offer new external cases as well, but thankfully I didn't need one.
Well blow me down with a feather!! It left here by registered "signed for" mail and was back by the same method within 48 hours. All fully working again and 100%
I am very, very impressed with the service provided. Thank you @MrSporty
