Hi all.
Got the donor bug home but had a bit of a prob with the steering lock.
My cousin had broken the key in the lock and then butchered the lock trying to turn the ignition on, he even tried to drill it into submission - with no joy.
I had to remove the barrel in order to get the bug onto the trailer - which was when I noticed that he had also butchered the end of the barrel.
Once I'd recharged the battery I tried to start the engine but it wouldn't start - I get the 'key code' light and also the 'system fault' on the display.
Which brings me to the question:
If I obtain another barrel and key, will it match to the car or will I need to do something with it before it will be of use?
Any help will be appreciated.
George
