Changing PKE FOB batteries - be careful

[Nigel80031]

Many thanks to one of the C4 moderators Ray Belyea (Eagle85C4) for finding the fault in my FOB and fixing it.

I would like to warn others when changing the battery to be careful when pushing the new one in. Looks like I must of pushed too hard and broke the circuit board a little causing the supply line from the battery to break.

I found the Radio Shack replacement batteries lack the little ridge needed for the little clip to slide over and properly hold the battery in. I used two little dabs of hot melt glue and it worked fine.
