Can't remember if this has been dealth with (been a very long week).



I ordered a couple of replacement alarm keyfobs for Charlottes Disco on Wednesday, 82 quid inc postage from: Remote Key - 0121 353 7563. They have a site at:

They arrived by Special Delivery yesterday, reprogramming took a massive 93 seconds (yes, I timed it).



Credit where it's due, they were an absolute pleasure to deal with.



I can honestly say that this is about the only thing to have gone right this week...

But isn't it a real pleasure when something does go right?

Just received my keyfob from them today - I'll fit it tomorrow (bonnet up switch this, switch that, stand on your head whilst singing land of my fathers) what were they thinking of to programme them !

LOL :-)

Yeah - at first sight it does seem odd, but if you get it clear in your head first it's pretty simple (don't try this with a hangover). Essentially you have three on-off sequences.

Ignition - on off Driver door lock - on off Bonnet swith - release Ignition - on off

I asked my Office Manager to hold the bonet switch down until I was ready - she was not immediately ammused :-)

Does this also apply to Defenders ....they have no central locking? What happens after last ignition on/off?

erm...

In the case of the discovery or Rangie, the final ignition on/off sets the alarm module into program mode. you then press and hold the button on the new keyfob untill the alarm LED flashes. If you're only programming the one, you're now finished, if you have a second keyfob, simply press the button on that after the first has been done. Simplicity itself.
