New Battery Remote Central Locking Plip

Post by mattyf »

Hi all,

Well first time post, please forgive me if this has be covered before but ... I have a 1999 (T reg) 406 HDI and I have just replaced the battery on the Key Fob (two button) and now the central locking on it dosen’t work. I have tried so many different methods to try to re-sync the key but no luck. Can anyone please tell me the correct method in re-programming the key please as it’s really doing my head in because it was working before!

Cheers

Matt

Welcome Matt :cheesy:

There's a few versions but here's the one I use (works for me :wink: )
1, put key in ignition.
2, press and hold big key button.
3, turn on ignition (while holding that button down)
4, hold for 10 seconds.
5, release the button, turn off ignition, remove key and try it....
