    Nanocom programmable fobs? Where to source?

    I tried a relatively cheap eBay fob and can't get it to play ball with the Nanocom and get it associated with the car . I'm too poor to afford a genuine replacement, so just looking for either a reasonably priced after market or even refurbished unit (or two). Anyone got any ideas where to get these things from that will work? Cheers.

    you need to get a keyfob with the correct MHZ. i cant remember what spec you need but a lot of fobs on ebay are incorrect for Aus models.

    There was a bloke in Sydney and one in Melbourne who had reasonable prices and would program them as well if you were able to get to them.

    I got a 315Mhz unit which seems to be the right one as the RF test on the Nanocom detects it. Although, the Nanocom reports a successful sync if no fob is pressed at the prompt, so maybe it isn't?

    I have had two off eBay, rf test was successful on both but could not program either of them, as did another member on here try as well, returned to seller and got a refund.

    I was thinking of doing that. They say needs to be programmed by a locksmith or dealer, so I figured that would be an out for them. Is this not the case?

    The correct fob can be programmed with a Nenocom. I've done it, so it's not complex.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    Forgot to add I had to update the nano firmware to 1.36b to setup the fobs properly, after which it was by the numbers as per the blackbox tutorial

    Yes, exactly the problem. The "current" 1.35 version of the software has a "d2 fob programming bug". To fix it, the 1.36b (for beta) needs to be installed.

    I'd received a second fob today based on your recommendation in this thread and it still wouldn't program. At this point the penny dropped and I started digging into the possibility that there is an issue with the firmware on the Nanocom, and it turns out there is.

    Once upgraded the fob's were programmed in no time. I had one win in that the vendor of the first fob has given me a refund. Feeling a bit guilty about that now
