    Default New key fob?

    Got myself another vectra yesterday, 2005 cdti

    Anyway the key fob has seen better days, the lock button and boot button work but the unlock dosnt, peeling back the knackered rubber I can see the bit that's broken off that would be depressed

    What options do I have for replacement, are the transponder and button part seperate I side the key?

    Not done this but I think there’s some replacement cases on eBay but can’t remember if the transponder is part of the board inside or separate.
    Im sure if you have a look about you’ll see how they are advertised.

    if you’ve tried to search in here it should come up dead, look in the vectra section instead

    Then report your post and get a moderator to move it for you.

    btw, the transponder is on the PCB, not in a separate pocket in the case.

    I got a repair kit off ebay for the price of 2 pounds delivered, it came with 3 replacement buttons, outer fob shell, new rubbers and batteries... I than de-soldered the broken button off and soldered one of the new ones on... than build up the lot with the new fob shell. Sorted... I'm still looking for a stiletto blade key fob but since mine is a preface the ones I keep finding are the higher frequency that the ECU doesn't accept... still looking for it but it has no priority.
