Ok ok so maybe its someone with a tiny Soldering Iron, I dunno.
So I need the collective brain trusts insight on another situation.
Can this be done?
Here is the backstory.
My daily driver is a C230, and I happen to love it.
Last week my Key FOB failed. it was a bit beaten and tattered. I am no longer able to LOCK the car with my key.
Lock the car = NO
Unlock the car = YES
Pop the Trunk = YES
Panic Button = YES
Start the car = YES
I bought a new Key FOB casing.
I transferred the guts from my old Key to the new
While Transferring........ I noticed the button ON THE CIRCUT BOARD to lock the car had broken off and was loose inside the casing.
The new casing is perfect and we are back to:
Lock the car = NO
Unlock the car = YES
Pop the Trunk = YES
Panic Button = YES
Start the car = YES
soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo my questions are?
1. Can the button be saved and re-soldered to the circut board?
2. Who can do this type of work? person or profession?
Your collective insights have NEVER been wrong so I appreciate all you guys and your insights....
Please comment.
BTW.... yes I know I can go and spend 300.00 on a new Key from Mercedes, BUT this new FOB cost me 7.00, which one would YOU pick?
