Hi there, thanks for your reply, i have fitted new batteries cheers, i didn,t no if there was a series to programme the key or a way to reset the alarm module, cheers

I had an l plate 100 avant and you had to reprogram the key. i can't remember how but vaguely remember having to put the key in the lock an locking the car and holding the key in the lock position for a period of seconds. i think i had to use the nearside lock hope this helps

I've just looked in my owners handbook and to resynchronise the remote key press one of the buttons on the remote control key insert the key into the door lock and either lock or unlock the vehicle once [the resynchronisation process should not take more than 1 minute]
