Morning All,
Wonder if anyone can help me here.
I have a Stilo 1.2 16v active - 2003.
I have two keys, none of the keys will open the doors when using the door lock on the drivers door and this is worrying me.
The key with the remote buttons on it can open the doors with the button and start the car.
My spare key (with no buttons) will not start the car.
Im worried incase the battery run's out in the working key as I will not be able to unlock the car (without the buttons working)...
I want to replace the battery as the range I can unlock the car from is getting less and less - meaning the battery is probably running out.
Can I replace this without the need to re-program it?
I know that some cars need reprogramming once you take out the battery in the key and that can cost a fortune.
Also, how can I get my key to work in the door lock, it turns but does nothing.
Also, the spare key cannot start the car.
In fairness i need to know...
Can i change battery in key very easy without it looses its memory
What could cause the door locks not to open when using the key in the lock
And can I get my spare key (with no buttons) repogrammed to start the car.
Any help appreciated, i dread to wake up one morning and not be able to get in the car
Kind regards
Dan
