Thanks saint, V helpful :)

Am still living in hope for a lightbulb moment from the more experienced of you!!

agreed!!

What's concerning me now is what was causing the original problem of the key fob not communicating with the rf if the one I have is the latest version?? Both fobs are defo working as is the rf supposedly, so why wouldnt the signal be picked up by the rf and sent to the becm and work unless...

So tested power to the rf....all good, noticed that the car does not self lock if left unlocked, is this normal or should it eventually super lock it's self? Given that there's power to the rf and full power in the car battery, I can only assume it is a sync issue some where between the becm...

Lol! Thanks!

Thanks mozzarella, will come back!

Saw one from 2008 was that it? Thought there may be an updated unit since?

Hey Guys, Is this the latest RF by any chance?? Have bought a tester to check the power to the RF but am unsure of where to put the red probe? :confused: again!

Yes I do have a tow bar, will check the insulation!

Next step is to twist the arm of my local (7 miles) landy independent to come out with his hawkeye. Thanks again for all the help so far :)

Thanks wammers, thought I had read that they share the fuse, but good to be sure!

Yes, have even tried to induce the replacement to blow repeating similar movement on the sound loom he was buggering about with, no result

Fuse was blown and replaced, could this have burnt or damaged a component in the rf possibly?

Thanks saint and all you other guys for your help. Will keep posted, ;)

Any recommendations for a user friendly unit!? :rolleyes:

Wish it could be fixed with a spanner and some WD40, would be much more at home!!!!

I meant with a faultmate etc yes agreed, keep coming back to the same thought that rf has no power and is also intermittent

Anyone know of one for sale and roughly what I should be paying??

Sorry data, didn't see that last message! Yes!!!
