My one and only working alarm key fob has given up the ghost

[jessica]

Any ideas on how expensive this is going to be Guys?
Is it going to be a whole new alarm system?

I have two key fobs, one has never worked properly, and now the other has gone has died.
I always intended on getting another one so i could re-programme or get someone to do it.
I know of Carl baker so if i cant sort this myself i will be giving me a call.

Firstly i am going to try and re sink alarm with the battery. but i really think the key fob has had it as it was working one day and then not the next. i tried new batteries to no avail.

He just fitted a remote boot release for me, but I know he also does replacement fobs.

Cheers

I'd try Sparks and Sensors in Kirkham. He did me a new one for my Cerb and he deffinetly knew his way around the car. I think I read somewhere that he used to work at TVR.

If you do it yourself, a plug and play replacement Meta HPA and M36 immobiliser can be had for about £300 from Abacus. It's probably about a day's work to fit, the most difficult part of which is getting the dash top off. (And back on again).

You get two new fobs, a card to let you program more, a remote boot release, and most important, a new immobiliser with the starter circuit wired through the internal 25A relay and not the 10A one, so one less cause of the hot start issue.

Tools needed are a 10mm spanner, a pair of small scissors, a pair of side cut pliers, a pair of radio removal tools and a big bag of cable ties. You'll probably need a replacement DIN radio cage, as I had to destroy mine to get it out to give me more space to work behind the radio to wiggle out the immobiliser. More details of what you need to do on the Abacus website.
