dirtydan Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 Hiya, going to look at a UK spec supra tomorrow, one slight problem that the owner has said is.... the battery was dead and he got a replacement ... though it doesn’t set the alarm on properly or something atm due to fact the key fob isn’t programmed properly and have to take it to Toyota to re-programme the fob "about £25"... "im not 100% sure if he meant the normal car battery or a battery in the key fob... " Just checking if it was either of these do you have to re-program a key fob... would have thought this wouldn’t affect for just a battery change? Also if it is, does it cost around £25 to get this done? It is supposedly a common problem? thx dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 I changed my battery recently and it just worked - when I spoke to Toyota about getting a pair of new remotes they reckoned about £100, apparently they only do them in pairs. The alarm is a Scorpion 5000, you may be able to get fobs elsewhere. How does he stop the alarm going off at random if it doesn't work? Does he have the key to turn the siren off manually? I'd be tempted to knock him down £500 and put a new CAT 1 in. Welcome to the forum BTW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
