I have plenty of blue fobs in stock. £35 posted via recorded post. I've supplied quite a few members on here now who was in trouble. Lol

I can email instructions to recode the fob.

piece of cake to program to your car.

arm & disarm the system with either pin code or one working fob, then enter the following
*17856*91*2# then press the button on each fob to be programmed and the alarm will beep to signify its programmed

If so, how can I pay you? paypal?

at the risk of sounding even dumber than I have already - how do you enter numbers? is there a keypad or something that i'm not aware of?

It's only a piece of cake to program if you know the PIN. IF you dont you can change it with a working fob. If you don't have a working fob, then, bad times.

How do you change the pin with a working fob I have a working fob but no idea on the pin?
Do I need the pin to buy and re-code a spare key fob?

No, you just arm then disarm using your working fob, then (within 30 seconds) type the following into the keypad:

*17856*92*aaaa*aaaa#

(change the aaaa to the new pin you want)
