Key fob should be easy and dealer will charge an arm and a leg for a new one. The conductive coating is probably worn off...it was on mine. Carefully pop it open and on the back of the rubber pad you will see dark areas which make contact with the circuit board. I got a small tube of powdered graphite and coated the contact areas on the pad. Don't overdo it....just a thin coating. You can also rub the side of a pencil lead on there, but it won't last as long.
This also works great on older TV remotes that have "dead" buttons
