What can be repaired on a car key fob?
A car key fob has three parts that can be repaired: the case, the buttons and the parts inside that hold them together. A cracked case can often be replaced. A worn or stuck button can often be fixed. A loose part inside the fob can often be put right. The electronics inside the fob are a different matter: if they have failed, a repair may not be possible. We check the fob at your location and tell you what can be repaired before we start any work.
When is a fob repair possible?
A repair is possible when the fault is in the case, a button or a loose part, and the electronics still work. A fob that looks worn but still locks and unlocks the car is often a good case for repair. A fob with a small crack in the case is also often repairable. We check each fob on its own, because two fobs with the same fault can need different fixes.
When does a fob need a replacement instead?
A fob needs a replacement when it is lost, when the electronics have failed, or when water damage has reached the parts inside. A fob that works only sometimes, or not at all, may also need replacing. In these cases a repair will not last. See key fob replacement for how a new fob is supplied and programmed at your location.
What does fob repair cost?
The cost of a fob repair in Birmingham depends on three things: what is wrong with the fob, the type of fob, and the parts the repair needs. A button fault and a case fault are different jobs. Call us, describe the fault, and we will give you a quote before any work starts. See car key replacement cost for the factors in full.
| Factor | How it affects the cost |
|---|---|
| The fault | Button faults and case faults need different parts |
| Fob type | Remote fobs, smart keys and flip keys have different parts |
| Parts needed | Some repairs need a new case or button; some need more |
| Repair or replacement | A replacement fob is a different job from a repair |

Frequently asked questions
How much does car key fob repair cost in Birmingham?
The cost depends on what is wrong with the fob, the fob type, and the parts the repair needs. A worn button and a cracked case are different jobs, so each repair is priced on its own details. Call 07367 634032, describe the fault, and we will give you a clear quote before any work starts.
Can every car key fob be repaired?
No. A repair works when the case, a button or a loose part is the fault and the electronics still work. A fob with water damage or dead electronics usually needs a replacement instead. We check your fob at your location and tell you which option fits before we start any work.
My fob buttons have stopped working — can it be repaired?
It depends on why the buttons stopped working. A worn or stuck button can often be repaired, while a fault in the electronics may mean a replacement is needed. Call 07367 634032, tell us what the buttons do now, and we will check the fob at your location.
Can you repair a cracked fob case?
In many cases, yes. A cracked case can often be replaced while the buttons and electronics inside stay as they are. Call 07367 634032, tell us how the case was damaged, and we will check the fob and explain whether a case repair is possible for your fob.
My fob stopped working after it got wet — can it be repaired?
Water damage often harms the electronics inside a fob, so a repair is not always possible. Call 07367 634032 and tell us what happened to the fob. We will check it at your location and tell you honestly whether a repair or a replacement is the better option.
How do I know if my fob needs a repair or a replacement?
Repair fits when the case, a button or a loose part is the problem and the electronics still work. Replacement fits when the fob is lost, water damaged or dead. We check the fob at your location and explain which option fits before we start work, and you decide what happens next.
