Hi guys,
sorry to go over old ground, but I *have* read through the archives and this one is slightly different.
My wife has a 1.1 Punto (S reg) that won't start. We assumed that the battery had run flat due to a radio left on, and I tried to jump start from my car using a cigarette lighter connector, which has worked successfully in the past.
On this occasion, no joy, and I noticed that the "key code" dash light is on. We don't have the code card (so don't know the number), but we
*do* have the "red key", which I'm hoping is relatively good news.Question: do we need to get the car itself to a Fiat dealer (difficult, considering that it won't start!) or can we just take the red and blue keys and get them reprogrammed to a new number? And what is the likely cost? (I'm assuming this won't be the BIG expense that losing the red key would have incurred?)
Thanks in advance,
Mike M
