kevscort15 Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Key wont fit your barrel thou but you can get round that by reprogramming your keys , to your new ecu ,if you no what your doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevscort15 Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 you should have a red key with the new ecu ,if you put foil round the top of your old key so it covers the small red chip ,turn the ign to the ii position ,then put the red key near the key barrel the aerial in the column should pick up the signal the led should come on ,then take away the red key turn your key off in the barrel the led should come on for 2 seconds ,it then should be programming itself ,take the foil of your original key and turn the key back in the barrel to the on pos the led should come on then go off ,thats telling you its been programmed , hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevscort15 Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 You can order a new red master key but the dealer will need your vehicle number and your the reg keeper of that vehicle but only the dealer can reprogram the master key using wds which clears the pats memory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
