Default Key fob centre opening stopped working

Hi, thank you for any help given.
I went to give my rover a clean as not been well for over a week, and when I went to unlock her nothing happened. The key works fine to open. The key fob locks OK.

Please I hope after the start of my leave I have had I hope it is a easy fix or if cost can wait until I have recovered from our fur babies vet bills.

Again thank you for any help advice.

Lawrence

Does the little red light show in both instances when pressing the fob buttons?

Open the case and have a look at the very tiny micro switches on the circuit board. A member on here recently had the same problem and found that one of the micro switches had come away from the board. It was resoldered and was fine again. The photo is from one of my fobs to show what it looks like.

Thank you, but I openned the key Feb and mine looks the same as your board. This is looking like I will have to speak to one of the T4s.
