Hi there (first time poster)
Got a Ford Focus LX 1.6 (UK model), first registered in 2000. The remote fob is basically refusing to work properly and needs replacing (before you ask, I have tried replacing the battery and reprogramming it. It worked for a bit, then played up again).
I've been looking at some of the ones on Ebay as I don't really want to be paying over £50 to get one from my local ford dealer, however I understand that not all fobs work in all models of Focus.
Some sellers claim there fob will work in the Focus models made prior to the
2005, but the part numbers are differant to mine. Mines 98AG15K601AB, but some sellers claim that if the part numbers end in AB AC or AD they should still work. However, others don't.So, do I need to buy a fob with an exact matching part number, or will the other codes work?
TIA
