hi,

my key fell into the pool two days ago. i managed to pull it out, wipe excess water, clean the batteries, and let it dry for half a day.

it seems to work fine at the moment. should i expect it to die on me now ?

from what i see, i cannot fully open the key to make sure there is no damp spots inside.

Gil.

I washed my keyless go card at 40c that was fine, it did not like 60c the next time so I was £150 out of pocket.

I would still leave yours a little longer in the sun with the battery cover off
