Replacement Key Fob For Retrax Tonneau Cover  

Updated 08/07/2026 | Published 08/01/2026

Question:

I have a powered retrax cover on my F250. My daughters thought it would be a god idea to put my keys in the trash. Needless to say my remote was on said lanyard. Serial number is 17090114422005. Do you have a replacement key fob that will work with this model? Thank you

Hi Kyle!

The part you are looking for is the F09-2029 replacement fob, but Retrax discontinued it earlier this year. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like anyone online has them either, but you could still find one somewhere out there.

The only way we can get you a replacement would be to get the Replacement Remote Receiver for Retrax Powered Retractable Tonneau Covers Manufactured After 2017 # RTX89TR (yours is made after 2017, so you're good). This is an insanely expensive way to get a replacement key fob though, so I highly recommend looking for the F09-2029 harder than I did.

Sorry I don't have a better answer for you, but let me know if you have an other questions or anything. I am typically more helpful than this.

I purchased the retrax tonneau from an auction site and it didn’t work. So I was forced to buy the replacement remote and receiver. It was ridiculously expensive for what they sell you but what else are you going to do the cover is almost $3000 and if it doesn’t operate, then it’s worthless. The replacement fobs and receiver worked perfectly and I haven’t had any problem with it since but that’s the only way to solve the issue.

@SteveS Yeah it's definitely a bummer how expensive this is, but it does look to be the only way to get a replacement fob at the moment. Glad to hear it got you up and running though! ^___^

@LazerS I was more bummed out that the auction said it was brand new, and the controller was burned out

@lazerS I have the two remotes from my old retrax power pro tonneau cover. One needs a battery but i put the good battery in the other remote and the lights work on both remotes. Have kyle w email me. I would love for him to have them. I looked up how to reprogram the remote and it pretty simple. Thanks
