New Key

[auto_glare_products]

hello all ,,ive got a little problem

 

my wife has gone and snapped the button key for my picasso 2001,,

 

what i mean by the button key is that ,,,this key is the main key that unlocks and locks the car by pressing a button

 

i do have another key ,,,which works ok

 

but i wanting to replace the button key

 

 

ive brought a listing from ebay ,,,http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280615402631&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

 

this is a blank key with nothing inside

 

it come today and ive opened the snapped 1 and remover the curcit board from it and placed it in the new blank key

 

but it doesnt work ,,,hopefully its just the batterie so im replacing that tomorrow

 

,,,,so my question is do i have to have the blank key coded to work on the car ...or is it just a straight forward key cutting

hey auto.you will have to take the key to a locksmiths that can cut that type of key. my key didnt lock my doors on synergie so i took the lock barrel n key to my local locksmiths which cut me a new key from unique code that each key has....not the worn key as it wouldnt work.as for programming it will need coding to tally up with the imobilizer and ecu but it wont be cheap. last time i did that it was 95 quid n he was there 3 minutes sorting it. :angry:
