Hi all
Has anyone had to replace one of their remote key fobs? One of mine is broken.
Any advice on cost, whether the new fob needs 'coding' to the car, any other tip or learnings etc. would be much appreciated!
Thanks

Hi Prof. Is the fob broken or does it just need a new battery? A friend with a CX had door locking problems with one key. The second key fob worked ok. A new battery solved it.

If its just the battery its a straight forward job. I have changed the battery on one our fobs, it takes a coin type battery easily available on the net. Only thing to be aware of is, in the re-assembly be careful re-screwing the tiny philips screw that holds the fob case halfs together, its easy to cross thread and strip the plastic thread.
No idea ref cost of a complete replacement complete fob, but I know just the key fob case less the electronics is over £50.00
On one of the sets of ignition keys for our car we have serial code info for the transponder, but not sure it that is just for the ignition key or is also for the door key fob.

ts a Morgan exclusive part so you will have to contact a dealer or the factory and also have it coded in. Unless it just the case that's broken then you could swap the internals over which would be the cheaper option.
