Hi Guys.. had a bit of a situation yesterday when dropping the missus off
at the shops. Stopped car and got out. Armed the vehicle on the remote key fob no worries. Up on returning unarmed as usual ok. Put the key in the ignition and turned.....nothing. i removed and tryed arming, nothing. I was stuck! The little LED on the key fob seemed weak. so i thought maybe the battery was dead. Luckily i was at the shops so bought new one for $4. Now the light seemed stronger. Tried and all ok. However the clock in the car had reset itself?? And also (car is LPG) when started it did not switch over to LPG as usual. in other words it usually starts on petrol then immediatly switches to gas. This time it just stayed on petrol. Wierd. Any ideas........ All okay now however but can the battery in the key fob being changed reset everything???
Appreciate any ones thoughts...
