Title: Typical, flaming typical !!
Post by: Entwood on 17 June 2010, 13:36:38

On the way into town this morning I posted my "main" key to Martin as the "unlock" button had become "supersensitive" - only needed to look hard at it and it worked .. being in a pocket was flattening batteries very fast !!

Not a problem .. spare key in use.......  until I dropped it in Sainsbury's getting change from my pocket... back to the car.. won't unlock - no light .. but "lock" and "boot" buttons cause the light to flash.. Unlock the car whilst setting off the alarm, get home and take key apart .....

Unlock switch is in 3 pieces and not connected to anything !!!

Guess I'll be locking the car via the rear doors for a few days, just hope I don't forget and set the alarms off at The Lakes !!

 :( :(

Kevin

Its the 3 button type, writing on the back long gone :( but the circuit board inside says

megamos T-AM433, 92MHz ... so a good guess by you !!

Megamos T-AM is the same as mine. I have a couple of spares of the other types.

I was going to bring my spare key up as a temporary loaner but, thinking about it, I'm staying at the mother-in-laws tonight and not going home in-between now and heading up north. :-/

Hello

Same problem, I have megamos T-AM433. The boot lid works perfectly but doors don't. I took off the circuit board and found that one of the two microswitches operating the doors is broken - it has somehow lost its elasticity as it does not "click" like the others. Are these circuit boards available or do you Martin even have microswitches which could be soldered ?

Martin will put new switches on for you .. excellent job and fantastic service.

Useless Key posted Friday returned in perfect working order Wednesday - can't ask for better than that  :y :y :y
