Hi and a Merry Xmas to everybody.
I have just received a flip key replacement for the old lollipop style for my l322. After programming the key and using my old transponder in the new key and getting the blade cut, everything was working well, doors opened and closed correctly, engine starts etc. However, this morning as I drove to the shops, I noticed that the stereo was dropping out every few seconds, considering it was ok yesterday, I assumed that the new key was at fault. I tried the old key and all was fine with the stereo. Does anyone know how I can solve this?

Strange, which flip key did you buy? Pic?

Hi Steve, I bought it off the bay of e

I’ve just bought the same one did you have to remove a blank transponder before putting in yours?

I will swap spare transponder over and try it and will let you know if it messes with anything.

Merry Xmas

Looks cool does that. If you can get it working that is!

Crisis averted, it turns out that I hadn’t placed the transponder close enough to the blade end of the flip key. The car was therefore only receiving an intermittent signal causing all the fuss. I have now put the transponder in the gap right next to the blade and all is now well The new key is excellent, much better than the original.

Hello Easy

How hard was it to get the blank transponder out of the new key?

Thanks

Hi Steve, the new flip key didn’t have a transponder in it. I used the one out of my original key

Ok thanks mine came with a black one installed which I have finally got out but
It was a pig.

Thanks

No worries Steve merry Xmas mate

I got one of these and timpsons drilled a hole right through it when cutting it and said its not our blank so its your fault ..... trying to find just a new blade now

The eBay guy I bought mine from posted one out for £5.50. Try where tou bought it from.
Buy the way the Timpson I used drilled through mine!

Any idea who would cut a key in Kent?

I tried the Maidstone LR dealer and the parts person almost laughed off his chair. Haven't seen one of those keys in years, no we don't cut them, no I have no idea who would cut them for you. You will have to go to a specialist. So a dealer is not a specialist then........
