AFAIK, the only way you can get them is via a main dealer giving the vehicle VIN and proof of ownership. They are about GBP100. each, and

DO NOT be tempted by people selling remotes on eBay - they won't work and the reprogramming instructions are bogus.

There are ads in the usual comics for replacement keyfobs, most likely cheaper than going through the main dealer.

here's one at random

There is a reprogramming sequence to go through if you leave the batteries out for more than a specified time interval. If you haven't already tried that let me know and Ill look it up in more detail in my handbook. Also you can get a simple transmission test done just to check it is basically working or not.

RF or IR ? Its quite often the pushbutton or the IR LED connections that fail, and they can be fixed easily.

Steve

When you change the batteries, you need may to re-synchronise the remote to the car.

Post the model, year, type of remote (ir/radio) etc, and I will look up the sequence.

P38/1998/diesel/RF, the LED does not light up when either button is pressed.
