Does your car have a sunroof? if so water may have leaked through and rusted the component in the ceiling.
Aside from that tell us more about the following:

What phase is it?
When did it last work?

No sunroof, and sorry, it's a phase 3 year is 2000, it worked about 3 days ago, walked away and went to lock it, but nothing .. Is there a fuse or anything such that could have gone?

I have never heard of that happening.

The seal can go in the sunroof grant, leaking water through and rusting the component (where the receiver sits). Had it happen to mates car and also my old ZX which is very similar design as you know.

I'm assuming this is RF key fob? Not an infrared

I've heard of plenty of leaking sunroofs. But there is a drainage channel all around the sunroof. It is the take off points where the run off hoses go to the bottom of the chassis, where the sunroof normally leaks from.

New one on me.
