Mondeo FOB

mambo69

Right as the open button on the remote seems to be getting on in life and now seems to work intermitently i have purchased a new fob.

Cunning idea maybe but how the hell do you get the circuit board off the old one? I cant work out for the life of me how to prise it off without damaging it

already ordered a second remote so I can have 2 working but with the issues on the current one really would like to change the button part of the fob over

cheers for any ideas :j

Well I had a 1999 206 that had a standard (non-remote) key that was falling to bits. Got my hands on a blank one, prised them both open and swapped the 'blade' and chip from the old key into the new case and bingo.

Obviously yours will be a bit harder but presumably it'll still be a question of using a blunt knife or something to prise the two parts of the key apart so you can swap the gubbins inside over.

Mambo no need to change the buttons over just reprogram the new one. ignition on and off 6 times and press the lock button. job done

Ignition on and off 4 times within 6 seconds, then car beeps then press any button on the fob and it beeps
again to confirm it has worked.

Yep got a new one on the way so going to switch the blade over and then program it in, but would like the old one as a spare, so still want to swap the case over at some point. i also have a blank blade to recut so would then have 2 genuine keys (yes i do currently have 2 keys)

If you have 2 unique keys you can program the pats immbiliser chip on the new key and have 3 working keys.

Insert key 1 and turn from 0 - II then off

Insert key 2 and turn from 0 - II then off

(within 5 seconds)

Insert new uncoded key and turn to position II

Wait a few seconds then remove the key, Wait 10 seconds then you now have 3 working keys.


Addition to the 1st post if you have more than 1 remote to program, Press the button on each seperate
remote on after the other. Doing one remote at a time will erase the previous one.
Remote locking only.
