Replace switch buttom on one button key

Post by JensJakob »

Hello.

I have this one button key for my Peugeot 406 HDI (face liftet). Is it possible to (re)place a new switch? In case, which type of switch do I have to get? I see there are many types of switches on Ebay. If you could give me a picture or a link to the right switch, I would be very happy.
Here is a collage with close up pictures of the chip inside the key:

Hi, welcome!

I appreciate you are not UK based, but these people offer a very good repair service.

Thank you very much for your reply. I will try to find out if I can send my key to them. In case I can not do the repair myself.

I used the guy about 3 weeks ago.

Brilliant service, and my remote was in a far worse state than the op's.

Thank you for your answer. I am afraid it is complicated to send my key to UK and return to Denmark. I have ordered a repair kit since the other components seems to be fully functoional. Thank you for your help!

As a final reply, I bought this http://www.ebay.com/itm/261215619783?ss ... 1439.l2649 and soldered the switch on myself.
Result: fully functional remote key :cheesy:
