Moparbob Report post Posted January 13 I have a 2018 Ford Edge proximity-type remote purchased with the used vehicle here in Florida. Last week, I jumped in our community swimming pool for about ten minutes; then into the hot tub - and realized that I had my keys and remote in the pocket of my swimsuit. Immediately, I placed the remote in the sunlight at the pool's edge and within a few minutes opened the remote back to check it out. There were a few tiny drops of moisture on the inside of the backing panel but, when I removed the battery, the circuit board beneath was dry! I dried up the panel back with my towel and blew air into the remote before reassembling/closing. Just a few minutes later, I trooped back out to the vehicle and it worked fine. Now, a week later, no problems have occurred. I call that remote a well-designed piece of electronics! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
normkol Report post Posted January 16 You can thank Strattec, the company that designs and manufactures these components for Ford and most other USA companies. Also, give yourself a pat on the back for taking all the proper steps to dry out the prox. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
