Anyone else's key fob getting this way? Anyone have any luck keeping it clean?
I just figure this out recently. There is a protective film that comes on the fob like what comes on the screen in the car. It’s real hard to see. It probably should have removed at delivery. When the film cracks, it peels up in sticky chunks. Once you get the film peeled off the issue stops.
