Common, Simple Repairs

Perhaps the most common problem is that of a weak or dead battery. Opening up your unit and replacing the batteries yourself only takes a moment. Another common problem is case damage. You drop your key and the shell cracks.

Even better, get a protective cover at the same time and you won't have to worry the next time you drop your remote. Replacing the rubber buttons is also a possibility. Wear and tear can result in poor contact or even missing buttons making your controller useless. With the right replacement keyless entry's buttons, you can make a simple repair and save big.
