1. replace the battery?????2. do you not need to code the fob to work on YOUR car. If not, does any 306 fob open any 306 car???? 3. even with new batteries the IR has only about a 1 meter range at best. |

I can't remember the specific fault, but on the P2 fob there is a short that appears in the circuit which will cause the battery to drain itself after about a week. However it is possible to reprogram fobs to work with your car, search the FAQ for the appropriate guide on how to do this. ________________________________________ Ph1 306 GTi 6 | RX8 231 S1 | YBR 125 Cafe Racer | MT-03 660 |
