   or take it to somewhere that repairs car stereos and such and ask how much they;d charge to fix the button. i had same problem with mine, citroen wanted £240+ to fix it this includes a £80 fee to look at the fob.
   went to local audio place and he charged me £20 to re solder a joint

   failing that if it is totally bust, it is cheaper to buy a new alarm system than get a citroen fob replaced and re coded. as i got a new clifford all singing all dancing alarm system for £40 more than citroen could replace a fob for

    There's a guy on ebay that fixes them. It's only a case of soldering a micro-switch in place. Mine was the same.
