I key fob is pretty f***ed so thought id buy a replacement case. But when It arrived I noticed a couple of differences, I've taken picture for you below. Have I bought the wrong key fob or?

I'm guessing that the new fob is for the older IR (Phase 2) setup whereas yours is the newer RF (Phase 3) setup.

My ph3 RF PCB sits very happily in a PH2 IR plastic housing, just looks a bit stupid and that's how it came with the car so.... Smile

My fob only works from next to the door about 1 meter range.
Do replacement fobs increase range much?

I haven't found a replacement ph3 RF fob case myself yet. Also been on the look out for a new complete key. Main dealer wants silly money for one.

There are no ph1, ph2 or ph3 fobs. There are IR fobs and RF fobs

The RF key fob does not have the little plastic window for the IR sensor as is it works on Radio Frequency not Infrared notice the difference?
RF:

IR:

RF ones brand new are hard to get hold of. Let us know how much the stealers want for a new case for the RF type, be interesting to know Big Grin

Just noticed you have a pic on the first post doh!

You can't buy a new RF case, its not listed as a part on service box, only a whole key, which is 80/90 quid last I checked
