The replacement kit includes the front piece, back piece, key ring, and button overlay.

2. Configuration et installation

This section details the steps required to transfer the internal circuit board from your existing damaged remote housing into the new replacement housing.

Outils requis :

• Small Phillips head screwdriver (if screws are present on your original remote)
• Small flathead tool or plastic pry tool (for opening cases)

Étapes d'installation :

1. Disassemble the Old Remote: Carefully open your existing remote control housing. This may involve removing small screws or gently prying the case halves apart. Refer to your original remote's manual if specific disassembly instructions are needed. Exercise caution to avoid damaging the internal circuit board or other components.
2. Remove the Circuit Board: Once the old housing is open, carefully lift out the circuit board. Note its orientation within the case. Ensure all buttons, springs, or other small components are accounted for and not lost.
3. Prepare the New Housing: Place the button overlay into the front piece of the new housing, ensuring it aligns correctly with the button cutouts.
4. Install the Circuit Board: Carefully place the circuit board into the new front housing piece, ensuring it sits securely and aligns with the button overlay and any internal posts.
5. Assemble the New Housing: Align the back piece of the new housing with the front piece, ensuring the circuit board is properly seated and no wires are pinched. Gently press the two halves together until they snap securely into place. If screws were present in the original design, secure them now (though this replacement case may not use screws for assembly).
6. Attach Key Ring: Attach the provided key ring to the designated loop on the new housing.

3. Utilisation de la télécommande

The functionality of your remote control remains unchanged after replacing the housing. The new housing simply provides a protective shell for the existing electronics.

Press the buttons as you normally would to operate your vehicle's security system or remote start features.
