scatty Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 guessing, but does the key need to be re programmed to fit the new barrell???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp77 Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 key probably has a transponder.the key fits the ignition but isn't matched to the ECU/immobiliser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp77 Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 oh, why did you change the barrel? is it because you only had 1 key? and now changed the lock set to get 2 keys?if you have the original key, try holding it close to the other key when trying to start.if this works then you can tape/glue the original key in the plastic steering cowling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brett Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 If you open up the old key you may find the transponder, a lot of vx`s just have it in the key and you can move it to another key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark-typer Posted December 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 The ballel broke inside so got another one with the key. Its just making me think if it has a immobiliser with it turning over. They is a sensor thing what goes round the ballel. What will I need to do its not like the key is that big to put a code into it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark-typer Posted December 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 Have had a go at putting the old key on the sensor box thing still wont start so think I need to reset it is that done by plugging something in the ecu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobjam74 Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 if the key has a transponder in it then the ignition barrel will have a black ring round it with a wire attached to it which picks up with the transponder in the key so is this where you have the old key right nxt to the ignition barrel ????

dabow Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 asaboth, what i did with the transit, as i changed all the keys. is as greg said, take the chip out the key, and put it in the new one.so then the transponder should be picked up but with the new key profile.as aboth, make sure all the wires are intact first. then change the transponder chipthe key symbole says you need the chip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark-typer Posted December 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 i will have a go at changing the chips over see what that does. bets on snapping the key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark-typer Posted December 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Woooo got it working. It broke where the barrel turns the switch to cross the wires so Took the wires off the new one and put them on the standard ballel. Anyone want to buy a saxo lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
