Title: remote key re-programming
Post by: JeffT on 20 July 2007, 10:10:27

So i bought a newish key fob from flea-bay thinking that by using the original chip from the old key fob and then re-programming it using the procedure outline in handbook all would be well. Doh. Do i really have to take it to Vaux garage for it to work? :'(

Yes, or an autolocksmith with correct equipment, or me if you weren't so far away!

You will also need a 'carpass'

Whats wrong with original, if just buttons etc, swap the insides over.

planning any holidays in Scotland?
the problem is the inside where the battery holder is soldered to the board- its been fixed once by one of the forum members - I'll have another look.
