Title: Good morning all
Post by: ronnic on 02 December 2009, 11:15:39

good morning all, I need some help and advice. I have a cdx estate 02 plate. the problem I'm having is that yesterday I was unable to lock the car with the key fob. I didn't get any red light or any response at all. Fob was completely dead. I purchased a new battery and still no luck. However I've noticed that if I wiggle the battery holder around a bit I sometimes manage to get a red light on the fob. It's very difficult to get the battery holder in just the right spot to make this work. It looks like it's a dodgy connection. As the key comes in 2 parts ie batery/electric part and the the other part being the actual metal shaft, if I bought a new key of ebay would it work if I match the original metal key shaft to the battery/electronic compartment section from the fob bought of ebay. Hope that's clear guys. Or does anyone know where I could send my original key to be fixed without costing the earth.
Here's hoping. ~cheers guys.
