flip key info thread

[Pabs]

ATP has only gone and done it!!!!

You need to hold down the boot button for a few seconds, and then it works!!!! I think you hear all the doors do something, but only the boot unlocks. Then, when you close the boot, the car locks it again, and flashes the indicators!

Sweet -

Great thread guys, got almost all of the info i need. The only thing i cant seem to fathom is what part number will work wqith my car.

The current non flip key does not have the MHz printed on it, but i guess thats not of vital importance its the part number of the new flippy key i need.

I have a 2007 Seat Ibiza 1.4 Sport, can anybody help me on a part number of a flip key that will work.

Cheers

My unlock button unlocks everything


how do you get the boot button to do something

you have selective unlock turned off, and for the boot button to work, with the car locked, press and hold the boot button, it should unlock the boot and turn the alarm off, then when you slam the boot, it will lock and re arm the alarm

Kool so if i get Selective Unlock turned on via vag com the boot button will work

Not got an Alarm , Its only a Refrence Sport

 

[Chemical Al]

selective unlock has no affect on the boot button

Right tried to get the boot button working today but no look

At the moment my 3 button flipkey , Unlock unlocks drivers door and then press again and it unlocks everything


I tried following the programming advice for key but just doing the boot button ?


so what do i need to do to get a boot button working on a flipkey which the other 2 buttons already work

 

[Pabs]

Have you followed the above, and held down the boot unlock key? I had to do it for a couple of seconds I think.

You can't program the buttons seperately. When the other two buttons are working, the boot button should work.

 

[AndrewJB]

Yep tried holding it down ,

Oh well ill leave it , Lock and Unlock work

I have a 2002 LCR 2 button key fob that has seen better days, plus i don't have a spare.

I want to get a new one - would this one work?

hi guys, ok i bought the flip key withough the remote, i.e. the shell with no inside electronixs. what i now need is the remote to operate the buttons. if i buy a used remote off ebay (just to operate the buttons) will this cause any problems? can i buy a used one?i have my own transponder.

 

[uzi_cupra]

Hope so...I have just bought one too! Let me know how you get on

by the way this is just the shell...no remote inside you will need to buy it seperately or buy a used key...i did not realise this lol

 

[uzi_cupra]

just broke my transponder trying to take it out so annoyed....what can i do now?if i buy another key with a transponder can i reprogramme it myself to work for y car or is it not possible to do it yourself? thanks

 

[ATP]

your spare transponder should just fall out your spare (non-remote) key?

you can get virgin transponders, which will then need to be programmed to the vehicle immobiliser, don't know if you can get that done somewhere, or if it is a dealer visit

 

[dervpower]

Bugger lol. Didn't realise that. Sounds like more hastle tbh, think i'll sell it. Anybody want a flip key?

 

[MadFaz]

I bought myself a flip key, followed the instructions, it was really easy, took 30 seconds and now it unlocks and locks which is brilliant (my original remote key is messed up, stopped working, new battery didn't make a difference!)

but the locksmith messed up the key cutting and he said there was no way I would be able to code the key with the immobiliser and he said that the transponder would break if I tried to swap it over (hundreds on SCN disagree )

so yeah now I have to buy another blade, going to get it cut from Timpsons this time see if that works


btw: the part number was HLO 1KO 959 753 G - FREQUENCY 434MHz

my key was 433MHz and the boot button doesn't work because its 1KO not 1JO from what I've gathered in this thread only cost £15 though

 

[ATP]

yeah you need 1JO to open the boot... you should be able to just buy the bottom part with the buttons and sell your current back on ebay

You can buy the actuale blades too. There just held in with a little pin.
