ve key pad not working

[glenn l]

hey guys, my daughter decided she didnt like the way my son was looking at my car keys and hid them in her car seat and we couldnt find them so i resorted to my spare set and the key pad for the door looks and boot release would not work but could start the car ok. im not sure if the battery has gone flat or it wasnt programed corectly when i had a new flip key programed. what do you think it could be, just as simple as a flat battery or another problem. if battery is it easy to replace.

The programming for the key wasn't done correctly

Did they have your spare key when they programmed the new key?

 

[glenn l]

yes, they needed the second key to do it they told me, so i bought in both keys to reprogram.

 

[RiCeY]

Id try a new battery then.

Providing they have changed a Holden key setup I'll have to pay 150 just for one for my vr because the remote case is sealed

Also that Holden key battery has a life span of almost 20 years so I doubt it's a flat battery

thanks for the info ricey.

The batteries are changeable in VE keys and lol at 20 year battery life HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHA

Heath I doubt you have a clue as every 45,000kms a new remote battery is part of the service.

Well I don't go wasting money on dealerships when I can pull an engine down and rebuild it myself
