Key help Asap!

[paul6]

Hey guys, my key has just died a death on me, and have to get the car back on the road by 6pm!

Does a new key have to come from Renault or can anyone in the yellow pages sort it?

Thanks guys

what's it doing mate? unlocking not unlocking, immobiliser light etc?

 

[paul6]

Had trouble with it for ages, wouldn't switch immobiliser off. Now it's finally given up I can't get into the car, lock has seized on the door!

Probably a crazy suggestion... but what about a spare?

 

[paul6]

Nope, only had 1

sounds like a new key if it's not doing the immobiliser. What other symptoms you having if it's been doing this for ages. Any mechanical etc.

What was it?

 

[paul6]

not sure what it was bud!

They tried new batteries just to make sure when they got here, tried everything to get the key working, and its just dead.

Still £140 not bad is it?

£140 is pretty good if they gave you a new fob on the spot!

I had to order a fob from a local specialist at the cost of £156 and had to wait a week!
