regards Roop

Hi Rupert,

No, the blades are different. There was a lockset change but it seems the LR database was not updated with the bar code from the new lockset. Maybe I can get the fob code from the BECM tomorrow. I have these numbers listed on my computer:

F1013063053969F10

And

13963053969

So I'll have to get the RovaCom out recheck the BECM. I'll check to see if I still have the paperwork for the fob I bought based on my VIN.

I do have one working fob.

if i understand corectly then, if you ask rover for the bar code for your chassis number, it should match the new key you ordered from rover. sometimes when the locksets were changed they left the bar code sticker for the new locks on the reciever unit under the parcel shelf.

Ron's car is now 433MHz as the lockset was part of a frequency upgrade warranty claim. The replacement key he ordered is 315MHz.
