Defcon5 Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 Erm, im guessing you have de-locked your car? Do you still have the boot lock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you force a window down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bossjohnc Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 Mine de-syncs quite regularly. I replaced the battery and I think I may have got an incorrect voltage or something.To re-sync I just put my key in the drivers side door and hold it in the lock position for a second, then use the button to unlock. Works every time.But you don't have a lock to do that with, so I don't know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bossjohnc Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 Those windows are very tough indeed. I watched in amusement as a road rager tried to punch through mine 4 times (twice with each hand).Oh how I laughed at his frustration.Some time later he was detained by the police for that, which was nice.
