My alarm remote fob has a habit of sticking "on" (it's the meta alarm). This means I sometimes disarm the car then if/when it sticks for 6 seconds it re-locks and triggers the panic alarm. No real issue other than looking like a dick whilst the sirens blare for 15 seconds or so.

I've heard replacement fobs are dreadfully expensive, the problem seems to be the button which has got a bit lazy through wear.

Don't suppose you can buy just the fob case?

edit - it's the push button on the fob, not the microswitch inside at fault

Give Carl a ring, he's known as the Meta Man.
