Alarm fob repair companies
Discussion
As title. Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions or has used a company within the TV, Surrey, Hants area for an alarm fob repair?
In my case, it's an older mid '00's era AutoWatch fob where the fob button plastic finally showed it's age and split apart over Christmas and when i was swapping the internals into a brand new case i found that the microswitch on the PCB is loose and the solder clearly needs to be repaired to get the fob workable again.
I've found a few places via Google but most tend to avoid any reference to solder / circuit boards and associated work and just cover blade cutting, re-coding / cloning of fairly recent / manufacturer fobs, etc.
So basically asking if anyone knows / has used a company that can undertake a solder repair on a circuit board. Already have a new genuine fob case, don't need any key cutting and it won't need any coding as it's already coded to the car - it's literally just the solder repair required.
edit - it seems even some companies that do PCB / soldering for electronics aren't keen either as it's "car related"
