smurf1242 Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 so turning the key isnt releasing the dead lock? i would advise a mobile locksmith to gain access to the car and try putting the car in to reprogramming mode put key in ignition turn on and off 4 times then car should make a noise then click the buttons on the key fob which should get your buttons back working aswell as the lock or you may need a new keyblade as it could be quite worn as it is an old key and car 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smurf1242 Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Sorry just noticed you said you cant lock them so ignore the start and just try reprogramming the fob see if that works or try a new key blade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanielChandler Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Instead of re-programming, can an auto expert that offers emergency locksmith services and ask him to repair that particular fob as they can make it work again like new easily.

JamesMichael Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 I thanks all for their thoughts, will definitely go with auto locksmith experts for getting the remote fob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveGranger Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 It's not even easy for an auto locksmith to provide the remote fob, only those who have direct contact with dealers can provide you these fobs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unofix Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Well isn't this an intresting thread started back in July 2016 by Bill Aldworth who never ever came back. Now this thread gets visited every few months by newbies who all just happen to post links to American Auto Locksmiths posted at times which must be the middle of the night in the USA. The other thing is all these newbies all drive the exact same car some sort of n/a except the latest newbie who has an Ecosport. 🤨 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicam49 Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 There seems to be a rash of posts by newbies. Someone on here said it's probably bots. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
