Key fob repair: questions and answers
Can a new case cure every fob fault?
No. A case replacement helps physical damage only when the internal parts are serviceable.
Can you guarantee a water-damaged fob will be repairable?
No. Internal damage must be assessed and replacement may be more appropriate.
What affects the quotation for key fob repair?
The damaged components, repair time and availability of suitable parts affect the cost. A quotation should confirm the agreed scope, parts and work before work is arranged.
