  • Remote Locking not working

    Well Lacey came home last night and said that the her remote central locking button was not working and has to use the key to lock the old girl up. So I went out and tried mine and it too did not work. Is it possible that both batteries could have given up the ghost at the same time or is there something more sinister going on here. Both red lights still work on the keys when you push the buttons so there is some juice still in the batteries.

    Car will go in for a service in about 4 weeks so it can wait till then, but thought I would see if anyone else has had a similar problem. Happened intermitently before but another press or two of the button and all is good.
    Regards,

    not heard of that.
    i hope it ends up being a plug has fallen out of the receiver, or something simple.
    just call your dealer and ask if they know what it is or not

      Hi Big Fella
      Got nothing to lose by trying a new battery in the key.
      We have had to replace ours not that long ago for the same reason as you have stated.
      The battery required is CR1616 3volt.
      Hope this helps.
      Cheers Troy

        Thanks for that. I will give the battery replacement a crack when I get back from work in a few weeks.

            Had the remote stop working so purchased a battery as per the post and replaced it and all now works correctly.

            Had all these thoughts of a major issue but after a very quick search on here to see what others have found/done I just went with the cheapest and easiest option first and it worked so all is good now.

            Once again PP has given.
