Remote key

[Jonnysd1]

Hello all, can anyone recommend where to get a key programmed in the Derbyshire / South Yorkshire area please
Key looks new only have the one opens door and fits in ignition no problem but the remote does not work at all - led lights up though
The car is a 03 mk1 75 tourer
Thanks

does the central locking work via the key lock and button near the handbrake? You may need to resynchronise the remote, IIRC you need to press the unlock button 4 times in succession. If not unlock then it's lock, I cant remember which way around it is.

Thanks for the reply yes key works fine and internal lock button locks and unlocks
Will give the resync a try thank you
Have ordered a brand new key, is it the same procedure?

Have you checked the fuses? 36 iirc Also, make sure if you buy a new fob to change the transponder over

I haven’t checked the fuse
Is that all that fuse does?
Bought a brand new key that needs to be cut with electronics inside
Will this need to be coded to car
My current only key looks new too
Am I right in presuming that even if remote doesn’t work that there is something in the fob that disables the Immobiliser ?

Cheers

Transponder chip in the case, do not lose it

You need to swap the pcb from your old key, you cannot use a new key without it being coded to the car

Have tried the resync instruction above but no difference
Can I get some really clear instructions on that so I’m def doing it correctly
Cheers

I see so the transponder disables the immobiliser
The rest is for c/l
👍

You resync the key fob as follows: lock the car and leave for 2mins, unlock with key in drivers door and put key in ignition and turn on then off, then press either of the remote buttons 4 times in 4 seconds.
Resynch is complete.
You may have to try this 2 or 3 times
