After replacing the battery my remote still won’t work so I decided o clean the inside including the electrical circuit board. Sometime dust can block the electrical contact or actually dropping the key can make parts loose.

Helpful for me to swap my broken key fob case for a new one.
Has anyone put it back together and then for some reason the trunk pop doesn’t work when you press it on the key fob?
Thank you-My Mazda fob was weakly locking/unlocking the doors, but it got to a point where, apparently, the signal was so weak, my car thought that it was being stolen. The anti-theft feature engaged, which cut the power, and did something to the steering where it became inoperable. I thought my steering column had snapped and was about to call a tow truck to take it to a mechanic. The 'start' button in the car was flashing amber and the key icon on the dashboard was red, so I thought I may as well open it up to clean it.
I sprayed a WD-40 product (NOT the lubricant) that is made to clean electronic circuitry, re-assembled the fob and everything not only went back to normal, but I can now lock/unlock it from like, 1/8th of a mile a way like when it was new! SO, thank you for this video.
The o-ring around the battery department's lid is missing. That's why it pops out. It's a red ring that keeps out dust and moisture.
Thanks for the video – I just replaced my Mazda Key FOB shell/case and was curious how you installed the chrome logo piece? Did you simply snap it is or use a little super glue to prevent it from falling out?
