I guess I will have to buy someone's dead unit since I don't feel like taking apart my working one yet 
As a quick fix I think setting it to the always unlocked state would work, but give you the key icon. |
Sounds good. But I suppose this is something one must risk doing prior to failure...otherwise same issue with dealing with towing and dealer. Now how many users would risk taking the thing apart while it is still functional is yet another question to consider I suppose.
