Replacement of Remote Key Rubber Buttons

Model: Toyota Avensis MK 1, T220 - Years 1997-2003
Part: Key

The wear of the rubber covering of the opening and closing buttons on the remote key is a common fault: this issue can be remedied at a low cost, as a repair kit is easily available in the aftermarket. It consists of a small rubber element to insert between the shells of the remote key. To insert it, you must first separate the shells by unscrewing the small screw at the base of the remote, then separate the shells, extract the remote unit from inside, and insert the new rubber covering before closing the shells again.
