Key Problems
« on: 13 November 2009, 12:13:21 »
Hi

Only had my omega a couple of weeks but I'm having problems with the key fob.

The one supplied with the car was in such a bad state that the only way I could unlock the car was to do it the old fashioned way and put the key in the lock.

I've now received through a new key fob (top part) but I can not seem to find in the manual how to re-sync the new key.

Can anyone point me in the right direction!

Cheers
 :D

you will need the car-pass which is a credit card sized card with the key info on it, and a chat with tech2 (device that speaks to car ECU)

Post up your location, we may have a tech2 near you

You need the car pass, which you get from a Vx dealer

Ok, thats the trouble, it needs coding to the car.

You can only re-sync an existing key.

Closest ones for you are Alton, Hampshire & Brackley in Northants/Oxon/Bucks border. We can do the programming, but you still need to go to the dealer for the car pass.

For prices see theboy.omegaowners.com
