Found this on ebay, if it is a switch fault, you surely cannot beat this price!

Nothing to do with me BTW, I was looking for a repair for one of my broken keys and came across this one.

I had the same problem.

I took the fob apart and the microswitch had come off the board. Its a fiddle but quite an easy fix with a soldering iron.
