How do you Take the circuit board off the Audi Key

[powersurge]

Does anyone have any idea how to take the circuit board off the Audi Switchblade key? There are 2 metal bolts on the board. The board on the VW keys come off easily but the Audi key is being a pain. Any ideas before I bring out the dremel?

I am running into the same issue and wanted to know if you were able to find a solution on how to remove those 2 brass pins?

hi all heres what you do the 2 tiny studs ( gold plated } on the cornners of the circuit board are push fit ie they have a serated shaft which pushes into the plastic case . so you have to be very very careful and prise them out they are very tight and you risk damaging the edge of the circuit board . basicaly thats it just prise them out

Hi all
One of my Favorite car of Audi.My Audi mechanic checked the TCM and found some corrosion and dampness at the terminals and in the box. (I'm quite familiar with Audi leak damage to TCU's). Cleaned and dried everything. $65...not bad. He did tell me that the TCU could be bad and issue could happen again. Drove home fine. Next morning same problem, but not as persistent.
