Dodge, Chrysler & Jeep 3 button plus panic button rubber button pad for fobik key

Fobik twist keys and fobik proximity keys both use the same type of key shells. These keys are used across the Chrysler, Dodge & Jeep branded vehicles extensively.

Often the rubber pads deteriorate and make the keys unusable as the small metal contacts on the back of the pad fall off and so you can no longer lock or unlock the vehicle using the remote.

This replacement rubber pad allows you to refresh the fobik key and will allow you to use the lock and unlock buttons again correctly. Swapping over the rubber pad is not a major job but it is vital you take great care when handling the remote circuit board so as to ensure you do not cause any damage.

This type of fobik key does not have a micro-switch on the PCB. Instead there are circular metal pads on the surface of the PCB and when you press down on the rubber button the small metal contact on the back closes the gap in these PCB pads and completes the circuit to mimic a micro-switch activation.

We see lots of these PCB with sticky mess on the surface and so it is also a good idea to clean the PCB with PCB cleaner when replacing the pad.

If your original fobik key does not have the red panic button, you can still use this pad. However you will need to gently remove the metal contact from the back of the panic button and you may need to gring off some of the red rubber on the panic button to get the pad to sit correctly inside the fobik key shell.

If you wish to bring your fobik key to our workshop in East Victoria Park in Perth we can clean the PCB and swap the rubber pad or shell for you. We can also test the battery and ensure everything is working as it should be on completition.
