Sounds as if your fob rechargeable battery has reached the end of its life so is no longer holding a charge. You can buy the battery on eBay and change it yourself but it is quite tricky to open the fob case without damaging it or yourself and you need a soldering iron and superglue. Search this forum and the Disco 3 forum and you'll find a few very helpful 'how to' threads.

All good here thanks. Sorry to hear the problem is persisting. I don't recall anyone ever reporting failure of the charging system. Suppose very short journeys would mean inadequate time to charge the fob battery. Have you tried leaving the fob close to your electric toothbrush charging base overnight?

The obvious question is the replacement battery you got a rechargeable one? 07MY RRS TDV6
