The electronic spare key all of a sudden won't work in the ignition. It opens the locks and trunk, but for some reason won't turn the ignition. The main key works fine. It worked this AM, but now it doesn't work. The little red light on the key blinks when I use it to open the locks, but in the ignition, it won't turn. What's up? Thanks.
If a new battery doesn't fix it, there is a thread on this forum that has a link to a dealer in Chicago where you can get a new key for under $100. I paid a lot more than that for a new key through a dealer.
Yeah, the new chrome key can be bought for under $100 if you contact the right individual. I pulled a stupid move this afternoon and washed my key with my jeans (must've drank a 6-pack of dumb@$$ this afternoon!) and much to my surprise, the key fob still worked fine and it starts the car as well.
Look for AMGEEZY's thread for the low-price chrome key. However, I think I read that the price went to ~$140 after so many people ordered it from the guy. I could be wrong though.
