Thread: Key fob and old nanacom

Has any one used the cheap fobs off eBay at all?? If so how was their experience etc??
Cheers jim

I bought a cheap one from ebay and couldnt get it to sync to the car with a nanacom. So now i have a spare key case as the fob part is useless

Nanocom can program keys, I have 4 433mhz genuine ones available

Forget about the cheap ones. The Valeo ones are the only ones to get. Most Aus delivered cars use 433MHz.

Try here.

I think the early vehicles were 315, so possibly all the MSB operated ones, so that's a few.

But yes, possibly more are 433 than 315.

I used these ones from AliExpress https://a.aliexpress.com/_mMJIl02 they coded up fine (just had to figure out how to get the 6 digit code from the barcode) but they don't work with the passive de immobilizer coil. So if you unlock the car but don't try and start it long enough to for the car to re immobilize you have to press the unlock button again. But given its a choice between $50 and $500 it doesn't bother me.

Mine, built 1999, delivered 2000, is MSB and 433, so I guess it's random. I believe it's possible to change the roof receiver for the 433 if that's the only key you can get.

You can get proper ones for $50. The code is on a sticker on the back of the PCB.
