#1: PLIP Key won't start engine - non PLIP Does?? Author: murf537, Location: ManchesterPosted: Sat Feb 11, 2012 6:14 pm ---- I got 2 keys when i bought 2nd hand SW 1.4 Entice. Keys worked fine til battery went flat - now PLIP key (2 button) will turn engine over but won't start it. Non Plip key works fine. PLIP key doea open doors though! Anyone got an idea why PLIP key should stop working?
Car battery went flat - not fob battery! Sorry to be unclear! Last edited by murf537 on Sun Feb 12, 2012 4:24 am; edited 1 time in total

If that don't work then it will just need re coding into your car.

Edit - I'm assuming off course you are talking about the key battery.

So as above make sure you haven't lost anything out of it.

Will same procedure work? Wary of trying unless someone can give a yes or no!

It is a totaly sepparate tiny module from the remote electronics and has no battery.

A lot of people don't realise it is there when they swap key cases and then threads like this appear, you seem to have managed to do it without swapping cases.
Have a look at this thread and check to make sure the chip is still there. If you have lost it Lee is your best bet. Cheapest person around for them. (Lee, can I go on commission please?)

I lost mine changing cases because I didn't know it was in there and needed moving to the new case. Changed the case on the key on Tuesday. Didn't need to start the car until Thursday.
