#1: Pattern key fob Author: iancav6, Location: rugbyPosted: Tue Feb 06, 2018 8:02 pm ---- My genuine key fob unlock button has finally given up so I bought a pattern shell from ebay.
On swapping out the internals and key blade found the lock/unlock works but the car won't start.Thought the buttons were being pressed down,so tried again without the button cover and still won't start,flashes up immobiliser fault.
Put my old battered fob back together and all locks/ unlocks and starts up fine..

Have had this before with OHs keys.
Odds are high that you have a separate RFID chip stuck in one of the lower corners (beside the blade attachment) It's black against the black plastic and pushed into a slot.

Didn't know there was a chip in the key,so that will definitely be the problem.
Many thanks.

Some forum users have lost the immobiliser chip to the bin men.
