Alarm fob part

cossie · Jan 31st, 2011, 12:01

Hi All

I have the three button alarm fob which is in working order, however the black cradle inside which houses the battery has the lugs snapped on it. Volvo dont do this part on its own, and I wondered if anybody had an old fob knocking about that I could pinch the part? It sits on the pcb part with 4 clips and is easily removed.

Any help appreciated - I really dont want to by a new fob and this cradle is beyond repair

Thanks Hitcher - but its not the case its an internal part that holds the battery onto the pcb board (like a cradle) and that doesn't come with the replacement case.

I not sure how much a new fob is from volvo (lol) but if the cradle is removable or a replacement re-attachable then you may get a used one and just use the part you need.

There are some on ebay, complete that are cheaper than the cases themselves. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_from=R40&_t...w=volvo+70+fob

Norfolkboy - I cant reply to your PM but it isnt the one with the panic button. I guess it will be different - thanks for the offer!
