Key Fob Programming

[Pied Piper]

I have two sets of the keys with the car, the dealer fitted a new battery to one, but it still doesn't work.

Does it need programming in?
If so how?

I'm still waiting for my replacement manual ( Geoff ) from the dealer so can anyone help, please.

Assuming its a Cobra alarm and you are talking about the fob with two grey buttons on it....

One of mine has run out of batteries and I was wondering what to do as I've been using the second one for a while now.

I called Cobra and they said that it just needed a new battery (e.g. from a Jewellers). Once that's installed then there is a synchronisation process as follows:

1. Press both grey key fob buttons for at least 10 seconds .
2. Once the LED (on the dash?) stops flashing let go of both buttons.
3. press the larger button twice.

Haven't tried it yet but doesn't sound too difficult.
Otherwise there is a sales number on the Cobra website.

Good luck.

This may help someone.. (i called Cobra to check)

I can confirm that this works for 111R 05:

Replace battery (CR2032 3v)

Stand near car and press and hold both grey buttons for ~ 10 seconds until led on fob goes off. (held mine to drivers window)

Then press the big grey button twice. nb: for me the first one just flashed the led, the second press opened the car :-)
