Hi,

I have just changed the batter in the key fob, as per instructions in
the manual but it wont work.

Is there something else I can do.

I guess the electronics in the key fob could be faulty...

any thoughts?

thanks

Try reprogramming the fob to the car - it shouldn't have forgotten
anything, but they do on occasion. The instructions are in the handbook I
think; failing that, I can post them if them I can find the right file Wink

If this doesn't work then a new fob would seem to be the answer. Cheaper
on eBay than from a dealer, but you need to be careful you are buying the
correct one...

There's a slight chance that you touched both poles of the battery and
it got discharged.
