Key problems.

[Typhoon]

I went to sell my Mk2 earlier and the key snapped. (The plastic from the metal)

I can can still use the key as long as the plastic is near the ignition barrel.

Problem is, I have a spare key, I tried to sync this by holding down the door lock switch, waiting for immobiliser to be solid red then unlocking the doors with it and it worked. I can unlock and lock doors with it but it won't start the engine. The immobiliser flashes very fast and the engine won't tick over.

What am I doing wrong?

Cheers

Turn ignition on and leave the key in for two mins. Worked for me!

Might be a stupid response, by why dont u just swap the chip. Lol

Just pop the circuit board out the broken one into the new one.

You can't sync the immobiliser without a computer.

 

[Typhoon]

I could try that too! Does the board literally pop out?

 

[Dan@SJM]

Yes.

Cheers Dan!
