Replacement Remote Central Locking Key

[b-force]

My remote locking key is goosed - how much will Fiat try and knob me for a new one?

[Puntoboy]

£60 IIRC.

that includes coding.

I think that £60 could nicely contribute to an alarm instead then

exactly.

Whats wrong with yours? Most of the time its the switch needs sorting/replacing.

a normal fekin key cost me £40 let alone a remote central locking one! and coding would have been another £24 but they did that for free, how kind!

[joey_turbo]

did you need your red key for the coding?

[T]

yeh, all the keys you have.

[Puntoboy]

did you need your red key for the coding?

if you go to fiat yes.

I got a new blue key from Fiats, didn't get them to cut it due to lack of red key. Anyway, loads of locksmiths ave said they can cut and reprogram the blank key. But none of them can right to Fiats already blank transponder. I asked them if they could take a transponder from their Fiat copy keys, as thats easily programmable, but they said they will have to charge 35quid for one of they're keys. I said surely they must have spare transponders, that probably only cost pennies.
Anyone know where I can get a transponder from?

Sorry for the hi-jack.
