Help with central locking, I have 1 key no problem , Second key unlocks the door and turns the alarm off when you start the car with the key, it just doesn't lock and unlock car with that key.
Started doing this after the car was off the road for 6 weeks having work done.
Been to dealers who have said can't do anything about it if I do not have the bar code fob that the car originally came with ?? Is this true ?? any solutions please
 
HI Nigel.

If you have one good working key then it should be possible for it to be replicated. It could also be dodgy switches in the remote.

Depending where you are in the country there should be an equivalent to the guys on the following link. I have used then (not on a Porsche, but to get a replacement immobiliser / key). Had excellent service, give them a call, if there too far away they may be able to advise on someone in your location.

Thanks Andy there is Harolds in Sheffield who put a new micro switch into the key that is working (when it wasn't ) that's the one working now (£10 ). Took this one in and they advised Dealer , I'll go back to them with that information and see what they can do. I'll let you know.
