Some hopefully useful information about the rechargeable remote fobs. I tried to use my 2nd fob that had been unused for awhile and it did not recharge. I ordered a new case and button assembly for the NON-rechargeable fob along with a new rechargeable battery (see pics),I did this because it comes apart and goes back together,the rechargeable fob is very hard to disassemble and did not go back together. The only difference is the metal contacts for the rechargeable battery which I removed and it has a removable back to access the battery which is no longer functional. I just cut the case apart at the seam,removed the pc board and soldered a new battery in (be sure to buy the Panasonic with the proper pin orientation) opened the new case ,removed the metal battery contacts and installed the pc board in the new case including the new buttons and now everything is new except the board-seems to work fine.. You can find everything on Ebay...
