KEY NOT WORKING
Morning all,
My ignition key just stopped working it wont lock or unlock the car when depressing the button.
Its not the battery cos I changed that for one that I know works.
I think the key might be knackered or could it have lost the code???
Any ideas or do I have to just contact the dealers and probably pay a small fortune for them to replace it?
Thx
Ronnie

Thx all.
Contacted the dealer based on what you've said.
Going to take it in and they'll "re-code" it. If that don't work there gonna give me a new key - FOC

I've had that experience several times (Classic UK Turbo) when near or around airports. Alarm frequency is interfered with and remote does nothing. I have had to push car around corners and out of the way before it starts! Weird but true!
