Sealed remote keyless entry device

A keyless entry device comprising:

• a rear casing member including a first surface extending along a periphery of the rear casing member;
• an electronic circuit located in the rear casing member, comprising a substrate and switching elements supported on the substrate;
• a front casing member including a second surface facing the first surface and extending along a periphery of the rear casing member, and having button apertures, each aperture aligned with and located above a switching element;
• a seal element of compressible elastic material including a peripheral flange comprising a seal surface, multiple protrusions located between the first surface and the second surface and extending from the flange to an elevation of the seal surface, the protrusions being spaced laterally across a width of the flange and extending along a length of the flange, each protrusion having a crest located at a greater distance above the first surface than a distance between the first surface and the second surface when the rear casing is secured to the front casing, and pedestals extending from the flange to an elevation greater than the elevation of the of the seal surface, each pedestal aligned with a button aperture and a switching element;
• and
• button caps, each cap aligned with a button aperture and located above one of the pedestals, whereby a button cap can be depressed toward the substrate to actuate a respective one of the switching elements and the protrusions are fitted with form are loaded seal.
