General Keyfob fixable ?

[Vogon]

Hi, my key has recently lost the ability to stay closed in the fob/blipper, a bit disappointing as its not even 3 years old !
Is there a way to fix it without major expense ?

Yes. I imagine you can buy a case and move the contents over. You can on peugeots.

Youtube, grande punto key fob. Loads there.

I presume you meant ebay
But nowt on there, I have taken the cover off and can see the metal locking pin has snapped, so I either get a new blipper + reprogramming, or a SH blipper and take it apart completly to swap the bit over.
Or live with it as is, most likely

Haha, Jesus! Posted just before I had a nap, needed it! There's loads on there!

Lots of covers, but they won't help as its the internal bit thats kaput

Yours doesn't close, poor you! Mine wouldn't open until I found the knack to it. It only opens if you press the button and point the key at the floor

Ah right. I was hoping it was the cover as mine won't stay down either
