Title: Key fob problem
Post by: RolandL on 26 November 2009, 10:34:28

Have a problem with one of my keys.  When you press the button to unlock/disarm alarm, led on fob will flash but car won't unlock.  Key will start car ok and it has fresh battery in.  My other key (main) is fine .

Anyone with any ideas as to what might be causing this?

cheers

Roland

NOt sure if they sometimes need re binding with the car, used to be a trick on the old vectra's i think ::) were you put the key in the ignition and press the button then. Can't remeber exactly but sure someone more knowledgeable will be along shortly :)

if it does it again, switches or batt holder may be tired. PM Martin "Pikey" Imber ;)
