Key-Fob or Ignition issue
Key-Fob or Ignition issue
I had a key that stopped unlocking and locking the car. Luckily I had a spare. Problem is, now the spare is not working correctly and is having issues with locking and unlocking. I am wondering if it is a problem with the ignition.

That's what I think but you can't replace the batteries in these keys.Minidave wrote:Could be a tired battery in the fob.....

I replaced the battery in one of mine but I have a 2003 Justa.

Re: Key-Fob or Ignition issue
My sister's 05 MCS was experiencing this same problem after we changed the car battery last year....took it to Baron when we were there for shop day.They reprogrammed the car and got one key to work as a remote. They quoted us $165.00 for one key, let's just say the one that they said was done for is now the spare key. I am glad that they got one key to work as an remote!

It would appear those reset instructions worked.

Re: Key-Fob or Ignition issue
Both key fobs finally bit the dust. I have a new key on order.
