When you take the battery out ,watch out for the metal tab with ears....it likes to pop out also...it contacts the edge of the battery and just sits in the case unsecured....man it sure bounces a long way for being so lite I found out

With the help of the video Norri gave me and a new Fob from E Bay, I replaced the old bottom half bottom half with the new fob bottom half and battery----keeping the original key half

and solved my problem.
Not only do I now have a fresh battery, but also new buttons .
End of problem...………………..

Good job because at this late date most of us have worn out button contacts as well. They can be repaired also but more work.
