    Remote control problem ...

    Guys, over the weekend, one of my car keys (Key 1) stopped working. I changed the battery (Lithium CR2032 3V) but it still doesn't work. Key 2 works just fine - nothing wrong with the central locking, door locks, alarm, immobiliser etc on the car - since Key 2 operates these as normal. Any thoughts?

    Re: Remote control problem ...

    BTW Key 1 still does everything that it is supposed to do manually e.g. starting the car etc. It's just the 'remote' functions that seem to have stopped working. I am happy using Key 2 plus a skeleton key for emergencies. Any suggestions/advice please?

    Re: Remote control problem ...

    You don't mention whether you have tried re-synchronising it, as described in the Driver's Manual?

    Re: Remote control problem ...

    I have been checking the Owner's Manual - couldn't find that mentioned - do you know whereabouts it is explained?

    How is that done?

    1. Unlock the driver's door with the car key. (That is, "manually").

    2. Open driver's door and insert ignition key into the ignition lock within 10 seconds to prevent the alarm being triggered.

    3. With the key inserted, press and hold button 1 on the remote control for approx 5 seconds. 
    The synchronisation is now complete. 

     

    Simples. Smiley

    Hope it works for you.

    Under "Controls, Safety, Instruments". Roughly Page 15 I guess, depending on model?
