Common problem. Six bucks for the replacement keypad.

Your image appears to be broken, but I'm assuming you need the two-button ute keypad?

They take about ten minutes to fit, and while you're doing it, you can put a new CR2032 battery in the remote too...

Even better. I might grab a couple of spare ones if they're that cheap directly from the dealer.

Too bad the parts guys at the closest dealers to me don't seem to know their asses from their elbows.

You should tell them to try and lick their elbows then....

Hahahaha, yeah. Next time I give them a part number, and tell them what it is, and then get just a blank stare in return, I'll probably mumble under my breath "just hurry up and lick your bloody elbow, moron..."

I might actually say it out loud if they order me another wrong part. So far, for three orders, two of them have been wrong, even after I told them they were ordering the wrong parts.

I really miss my old dealership. The parts interpreters there were absolutely bloody wonderful in comparison.
