Default 04 Audi A6 remote key fob?

Hi all,


I need a quick advise before I take it to the dealership later today.

Last night I took the remote key fob apart to clean the housing / case because it was really dirty and I did not take the circuit board out and after I put the fob back to together it's not working now. Also, I didn't take the key casing apart.

I don't know if the circuit board went bad or not. How do I take the board out of the housing? I see it has two brass things that holds the board down, does that come out of it or is there a some other way to get it out.

Also, I need to replace the push button pad, it pretty worn out how do I get that out?

Thanks in advance!

Update - I took the key fob / remote to the dealership and they looked at the remote and swapped the battery out (old battery was still good) but they just did it. Then, the service adviser inserted the key into the ignition turned the battery on and after few seconds turned it off then got out and inserted the key into the door key hole and pressed the unlock button for few seconds and all windows rolled about half way down and got the remote relearn process complete. He said it can happen sometimes when removing the battery and many owners don't know about this quick programming process. Also, he said this can only be done on the older model cars and the newer ones has to be hooked up to the computer and get it programmed.

They didn't charge me anything!!!


Thanks.

I still want to change the buttons but no clue how to get it out. Does it just pop out?

Thanks.
