Default key locks from lock but not from fob

Hi guys on my new launch car both keys looked like someone had eaten them. I fitted the new cases on. Thanks Holland314 and the button on one lights up all the time but on the other only when you put the battery in.

they both lock and unlock with the key and start the car but they dont lock or unlock from the fob.

i have tried quick pressing the buttons as on some cars that can resync (so ive heard)

Any ideas please. Thanks Thomas

Yes the whole lot was changed. I remember years ago doing one and it said engine disabled on the ipk. The car runs it's just pressing the buttons even though it lights the fob up does not open the doors or even lock them.

Thank you for replying Andy

Thank you for replying Andy

Did you put a different pcb in or your original one? (Been on night shift apologies for being sleepy!)

They have never worked no Steve. I asked and the previous owner said they were the original keys. They used to work but then when the fobs broke down the just used to put the key in the lock to lock and unlock the car
