Review on πŸ”‘ High-Quality Replacement Shell for 2013-2018 Dodge Ram Truck Remote Keyless Fob Key Case - GQ4-53T 56046953 by Jason Clemons

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for Ram 2016

The pins on my original key fob were faulty and the doors locked/unlocked with the keys in my pocket. I thought about buying a new key fob, but it would cost around $200 (buy the key fob and program it since the end user can't do it themselves). I decided that for less than $20 I would take a chance and try one. Installation was easy, I removed the key from the original and used my pocket knife to carefully separate the two pieces. Circuit board removed and plugged into the new case (set aside next to the buttons, it should sit in the module and the battery away from the buttons - btw, now is the time to change the battery, you can get a 10 year battery for less than 5 $ here - https://www.amazon.com/Duracell-Lithium-Batteries-2450-1-Count/dp/B00O35ULSY/ref=sr_1_13?crid=2G5DD2UCT9236&dchild=1&keywords=cr2450+ battery + 3v + lithium + 6 + packaging + 5 years +warranty&qid=1610742205&prefix=5+year+lithium%2Caps%2C214&sr=8-13). Gently put the two halves of the case together, put the key back in the slot and test. In order for me to keep the RAM logo on the back of the key I tried mating the old back to the new front and it didn't want to fit properly and I didn't want to force it. I understand that the seller could not put the RAM logo on the back as it would constitute copyright infringement. All in all everything worked great and I have already recommended it to many of my friends who have Rams and I will be ordering another one to keep in my desk drawer in case another FOB gets in trouble.

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Great price
