Hello there new to the site picked up my omega yesterday and the key fob which looks like it's come from eBay was working intermittently now it's not working at all no light on when I press the buttons. Tried replacing the battery and resetting nothing the switches look ok but the battery is lifting on one side any help gratefully received

Sounds like the battery carrier has come lose. If your handy with a soldering iron they are easily repaired.

I've used this guy a few times with good results, on both two & three button keys. He replaces faulty microswitches and can replace the key case where the outer membrane is torn. Doesn't do anything with key blades or immobiliser chips though.
Usual disclaimer, no connection to me.
