Oh now I get, it was a time line thing.
Well with new button's and batteries I'm good till 2027.

 

If only FMG would flip that keypad over, it’s a brand new , unused, OEM pad!

 

What is this acronym?

 

Why, that's our friendly neighborhood FireManGeorge!!!

 

Always thought it was funny that "FMG' was real close to "FNG",,,,,,and we all know what that 2nd one means.

So. I have that 8 year old, never used fob. And NOW, because I'm such a nice guy, that fob has been opened up for a 2nd time.

For your viewing pleasure.

 

This is what mine looks like. Rounded corners, grid pattern and "stops" on each side of button.
Yeah I know it's not the best picture. But you get the idea.

 

This is the back of my spare keypad from EBay

 

Took The Panel Out For A Ride Around Town...Then Put In Back In The Storage Shed And Pulled Out The Battery For The Winter...

 

Mine is a clone to yours.

 

Went for our Sunday cruise , took the MIL and stopped in Fort Erie for burgers and wings.
The HHR is running like new, the gas mileage has returned to normal. The throttle response is much crisper and it’s approximately 200 to 300 RPM less to cruise at 50 MPH.
The Seafoam treatment to the oil and fuel must have cleared things up and TTR new injectors and fuel pump help a lot too!
Good for another 10 years, 250,000 miles!
