In this video we fit a new keyfob and remote battery to the Land Rover remote control keyfob. The bodies are available to buy as an empty “shell” and you can swap all the internals over from you old keyfob to a new item. Ideal if your buttons are worn or damaged etc.
These remote controls are used on many Land Rover models including Range Rover Evoque / Freelander 2 / Range Rover Sport / Range Rover L405 etc.

Whew… you had me worried when you were trying to cut the plastic tab when there is an IC right in your path if the blade slipped or cut through…
Is this suitable for replacement for freelander 2 facelift models?
where is the link to buy please
I have to question the logic behind Key Fobs of that size which Fill your pocket and you feel like a Pit Pony carrying that great big thing around with you all day as opposed to the older Key Operated type which is so much lighter and easier in your pocket !!!- Has Technology moved forwards or Backwards ??????????????
Made in China !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jesus Wept !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Coincidence. I was watching something very similar only yesterday on Sam's Motor and Machine. š

I donāt think you need the superglue or the soldering iron to secure the PCB in the new case – my new case had a pad of foam in the back that secured the PCB on the pins when the case was assembled. I changed my case about 8 months ago with no issues (although with Covid, it hasnāt been used as much as normal ā¹ļø). Thanks for doing this video.
You donāt wanna put an iron near superglue. Stinging eyes.
No need to use glue.
Also you maybe pleased to know the big fat key the early discovery 4s had, that was the same as the 2010-11 RRS and the 2009-2012 l322, you can remove the enternals from those and fit them in these new type keys with just a small bit of nail filling the corner of the circuit board.
I don't understand why you have to glue/hot melt it in. Surely once the other half is in place it can't move?
If you use super glue you will Never get that off again without breaking the circuit board or the remote body pins
