bennno2005 Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Might be a knackered battery. Had to change one in my spare fob on my old car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also if you want a spare key there are people around that can supply them rather than pay the dealers do it at a huge cost, unfortunately you'd need to find them, maybe ask your local independent BM specialist if they know of anyone... by the way have all of the buttons stopped working or just maybe 1? chances are if none of them work it will be the battery, unlikely they would all pack up at the same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
