Part: Key

Video tutorial

In this video, we show how to repair a remote control for free. If you have an old key that you need to keep using, but it is not worth spending more money on, here's what you can do. First, remove the small screw located at the back of the remote control casing.

Once opened, ensure that all buttons on the circuit work well. Take a piece of coloured adhesive tape and place it sticky side up under the hole, beneath the casing of the remote control.

Reassemble everything, and then use hot glue to form a button on the piece of tape. Allow it to dry well, and you will find that you have replaced the button at no cost.
