Chip broken in key card - but what is it?
Posted: Mon Mar 20, 2023 6:02 pm
Hi all
Have had the common issue of the key card not being recognised when in the slot in the car.
Took it all apart and found a bad connection to the coil to the right of the buttons and repaired it.
Had to buy a replacement case from Amazon as the mine broke when taking it apart!!
and then--- the top of what I assume is a chip fell off and now whilst the key lets me start the car it won't unlock/lock the doors.
Have been looking unsuccessfully for a circuit diagram to ID the chip,
Wonder if anyone can tell me what the circled part is in the attached picture?
Ah - cant work out how to add a picture to this post!!
So the chip I am looking at is the small two ended one (actually could be a fuse I guess) near to the hole intended for a key ring.
Does this make any sense? - hope so
Thanks
Colin
