Hi, this is a strange one:
I thought it wise to have a spare transponder key programmed by an auto locksmith.
He did this by placing the original key in a machine which read the code and that enabled him to programme a new chip for the spare key.
The spare works fine and I have been using that for several weeks.
Today, I tried the original one and it won't start the engine!
The key symbol stays on in the dashboard and the engine turns over but doesn't start it.
I've not been able to reach the locksmith to ask him what's going on and thought I'd check if anyone else has experienced this?
Thanks
