Central Locking Remote Options

Post by Mike_H » Wed Apr 28, 2010 8:48 pm

Hi Folks

I have a yr 2000 Bongo with factory central locking, the key has an integral "remote" with a triangular grey corner button for lock & a small round black one for unlock....the fob is quite badly damaged (by previous owner), I've looked around the web for possible replacements but to no avail - does anyone know if it is possible to reprogram one of the Madza 626/Ford Ranger 2 & 3 button fobs you see on EvilBay as this is what I had on my 2001 Bongo a couple of years back ?...(went backwards I hear you cry...company car forces sale and all that)

Example fob...[url]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FORD-RANGER-MAZDA ... wt_939/url]

Can anyone help or do I just go down the route of aftermarket central locking?

I don't recall anyone saying they'd managed to get one reprogrammed yet, it comes up quite regularly.

I have had a look around for replacement fob for our 97 Bongo not sure if other 2 button fobs can be used

Will try and remeber to have a look on autodata in morning and see if programming instructions are on there for either vehicle.
