k13r4n Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Arnold Clark owns ford in Aberdeen i was quoted 50 quid to get my key programmed and was 3 pound for the battery but couldn't tell you what's up and if there is a fault what it would cost hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRedman Posted October 22, 2012 Author Share Posted October 22, 2012 Any Ideas it worked once yesterday ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artscot79 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 try this mate Look under the drivers side dashboard. Under there attached on the right hand side right is a box which should say SIEMENS. This is the remote control signal box. Remove the cables attached to it and leave it for approx 1hr. Go back to the car after an hour and put the cables back in. it can be caused by static build up in the box quite common this is what the dealer would do also a little unknown trick Central Locking Test Function: 1. Open any door, keys out of ignition 2. Press the switch in the door frame part of the lock (the one that controls the interior light etc.) 6 times within 4 seconds THIS IS THE SMALL BLACK BOX NEXT TO THE METAL BAR ON THE CAR FRAME WHICH THE DOOR LATCH ATTATCHES TO WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT The result is a car that (until left alone for a minute) will flash both indicator lights each time any door or the boot is opened and it should also flash if you press any key on the remote. If this doesnt happen with all doors, it could be a faulty switch or loom. If it doesnt happen with the remote, it could be a faulty remote. This function also reboots the central locking module, so it could cure the problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
