What you really mean is the remote is not working. The FOB is a leather strap or something like it that the remote attaches too.
Just to be politically correct.

the other key thing worked so i guess the battery went. but its odd how suddenly it went...no degradation of signal strength.
i wonder if batterys are covered by warranty :D

Don't beat up on poor Fat bastid. Even Ford refers to the remote as "key Fob" :)

I always thought a fob was some sort of English dandy or a pantywaist; or is that "fop"...?
