Been unable to lock/unlock on fob press buttons so am locking/unlocking on key & if I start the car within 30 seconds alarm does not go off. Wife bought me new key fob, changed metal key, computer board and battery into the new fob.

Attempted to unlock and start, alarm went off straight away stayed on even when key inserted and car started. Car fired up then cut out and won't run. Alarm stays on for a bit.

Changed everything back to the old fob so it is 'as was'.

Attempted to unlock car..

Car alarm starts as soon as i unlock door, car starts but cuts out. Alarm stays on for s bit. Same as with new fob.

Is there a fix please ??

its half eight at night, next door is bitching at me and we need to go out.

Many thanks in advance

Stuart

Andy:
Did you change the little plastic round thing in there as well for the immobiliser chip

God bless you Andy. Specially for the picture. Just found it on the kitchen floor. Happy days.

Cheers bud,

^^ what he said.

Be very careful removing that transponder capsule, if you break the glass you are gubbed.

Try starting the car with the new key, plus the top half of the old key in your right hand too (so the transponder is in close proximity to the barrel)
