It had to happen one day... and today's the day!

[McChuck]

After 2 & 1/2 years of happily getting in and out of my Tuscan just about every day, today's the day it won't unlock!
I don't know if it's the button key or the battery or what.
It's a Tuscan 2 and the alarm light is still flashing on the centre console. So it still has some power. I only drove it two days ago and the battery charge was good then.

Any ideas?!?

And to top it off I'm in Paris with it - so no local experts.

First thing to check would be the battery in your key. Just prise the case apart and change the watch-style battery. Open it carefully though, so you know how the bits go back inside again.

Sure you didn't because im the most stupid person...but you didn't leave the boot open or anything, the battery just dont last very long as i found out!

Cheers THB - good advice.
I opened the key fob and jiggled the batteries, pushed the button and hey presto.
