Locked Out Of My Car!

December 22, 2004

The keyfob won't open my car. It was ok a few hours ago.

I can see the alarm light flashing inside the car. The key fob flashes when pressed and i tried the spare one also.

Tried synchronizing the keyfob by holding the two buttons beside the car for 10 seconds and the for almost 2 mins. Also held the disarm for 1minute.

How can i get it disarmed??

Mine did the same a while back. Had to call the RAC out to de-activate the alarm. I then had to buy a new one as the old un was jiggered :ffs:

i had the same prob in the summer. for a week the activate and deactivate 'pips' sounded different. then one day cudnt get into me car even tho the keyfob led still flashed. worked fine wen i changed the battries.

i pressume the changeing tone was a warning that the fob signal was getting weaker.
