[QUOTE="Davy Crockett, post: 192581, member: 367"] I was curious so I found this on another forum, It's worth a try. use pure alcohol with a brand new soft bristle paintbrush. clean the whole thing and then let it dry for a few minutes. You might have to put in a new battery as well. Key went through wash and doesn't work.
