(G) stilo key not working

hi can anybody help,
my key fob has just stopped working today, but the little red light still flashers when you press the fob,could it still be the battery, although the light still flasher, cheers,

More than likely that it has lost its code - happened to me a couple of years ago. Changed the battery but to no effect - had to be replaced under warranty by dealer and in doing so had to change the other one as well.

thankyou for your reply,
my stilo is 3yrs old in december do you think it will be still coverd on the warrenty, or if not any idea how much it will cost, cheers

Change the batteries. Then introduce the car to the fob once again. Talk to them saying "I don't know why you two aren't getting along, you were meant for each other. Now kiss and make up"
Don't expect miracles. Put the fob in the dark of a drawer for a week to sulk then try it again.
Magic! It works!
Well it worked for me!

nice reply atleast it made me giggle ,
cheers

fiat dealer in cleckheaton, what a load of rubbish, be waiting 3 days for a price on a fob battery, and new extra fob, i phoned them back today and they still dont no

What battery does it take?!

Looking at my key, there is a screw on the side - never opened it, but has anyone else?

As for small batteries, I use this place http://www.watchbattery.co.uk/

the key fob takes a CR 2032 size battery.

I think my key has just lost is code too. Sickeningly its like 2 weeks out of warranty now too.

they finaly rung me back the battery cost £3.14,
and a new key fob was £84.00, but they said if its not the battery,
and then they said if its not the battery, it will have to come in to the shop and pluged in to find the fault but they also said it might not be coverd under warrenty, anybody else had this problem cheers, yours fed up.

Do like I said above. Put some new batteries in. If the key fob red light doesn't flash constantly when pressed then the batteries are dead

You don't need a new key fob unless the key fob circuitry is broken. It just needs tuning in to the ECU which they have to do to a new key fob anyway

If the remote has lost its code you have to produce all the keys you have to be reprogrammed (immobiliser) after this is done examiner will allow remote programming.
