Problem coding spare key - please help

[Danny-boy]

Hi all,

Only has my car just over a week, and I can't seem to code my spare key.

It opens the locks manually and starts the car, it just won't remote unlock.

Have trawled the web and tried a number of different ways, including the one on my user manual.

Key battery is fine.

Any ideas?

Thanks

There has already been something on the forum about this, the best advice was turn on ignition and press the buttons on the key, i found i had to do it twice but it worked, its useful to know because when ever you remove the battery the keys stop working.

I read that thread, that's what got me trying it out.

I have literally tried for over an hour, every way and multiple combinations of each way.

It just doesn't seem to be happening, even with the method out if the owners manual. Very frustrating to say the least.

try disconect the negative on the battery on the car wait for five min then reconect use the key to open the door then get in and start the engine wait for a few seconds and turn off get out and try the fob.
that always worked for me after iv been workin on the car or changed the battery in the key, try the other way pressin the buttons on the fob when you start it
