Anyone know where I can get a replacement FOB for the SLS on a 2003 Land Rover Discovery 2a HSE TD5? I currently have one, but would like a second for the spare set of keys.

The part number is STC50075.

You can get one through LR for about $280 but Google might find a cheaper option.

Ebay is good too.

If buying from Ebay or somewhere overseas, just make sure you get the right one for your car.

IIRC, the D2a Aust spec vehicles are 433 mHz. The others (US Spec) are in the 300 mHz range.

Cheers. Do they have to be programed for the individual vehicle (like a central remote locking FOB would) or do they all work on the same frequency/code/standard?

Same as a key, they need to be programmed for each car.

This should be able to be done by a Nanocom.

Check Ebay. All4x4 just listed 2x new 315Mhz SLS FOBs .... $110ea + postage.

They probably won't last long.

Need to make sure they are compatible with the receiver thou.

Most Oz delivered D2's were 400 mHz.

When you say most, you mean not all were? Is there a way to check/confirm?

I am fairly sure it is based on vin.

Someone will be along shortly, I hope, to make certain. You could probably ring your local dealer, and ask them to check for you.

Yes based on the VIN (based on year model).

I went to a locksmith in Brisbane about 2 months ago and they have a frequency detector. Not all do but this guy did and they can tell you what frequency your key is.

I found and checked the module today and so now at least know for sure that mine is a 433MHz unit:

Hi twr7cx,
Just a couple of questions:
Where is this module situated, I'm struggling to work it out from the photo (perhaps the d2 is different to the d2a), and what is it called?
Did you manage to find a new fob?
Cheers,
biggin

I posted this in general chat earlier, but it is probably more fitting here, is it possible to programme a standard ignition key fob to operate the SLS using a Nanocom, if they both operate on the same frequency, should work, no??
Just need to source the green cover

Its located above the roof lining. I had to fix a leaking front sunroof, so I had to remove the roof lining to do that and noticed the module then.

I still haven't got around to getting another unit.

I forgot about this thread.

The module is up near one of the sunroofs, rear I think. I exposed it when repairing a drain tube.

Still haven't purchased a new module. Going to do that now. The US spec ones are so much cheaper than our 433MHz units!
