siklife18 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Ok, so thats not exactly wat happened. My key got scooped up from a table at work and got thrown in the garbage. I found it the next day. There was water in the bag , and now the key doesnt work. The light wont even blink. I tried taking the key apart but couldnt get past the battery. ANyone ever had this problem.

smooth1 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Welcome to the LOC. You need a new key. They are programmed to the code in the ECU. It's going to cost you more than you want to spend, but that's the price of security with the ease of remote control today. You may want to start with the dealer. That's going to be the easiest route, but not the least expensive by far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Petree Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Here is a place you can buy a new key for $154, they will cut the key for you but you'll have to get it programmed to your car by a dealer. http://www.sewellpartsonline.com/parts_detail.asp?id=85836 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
