I got in the car last night after work and went to start the car, the key turned but as it started the casing around my type r key fob decided to shatter into pieces!
Got the car home turned it off and used some grips to get the metal key out the barrel, went upstairs got my spare electronic key fob came down and tested it to make sure the car locked, unlocked and started....
Worked no problem!
This morning I've come out to start the car with this spare key fob and it unlocks and locks but when I go to turn the car over it just turns over and over but won't start!!!
I then got my original key out and the shattered fob still works unlocking and locking the car. I then got some grips and but the metal key stalk from my original key into the ignition and the car does the same, it will turn over but not start!
I'm assuming that for some reason the keys are working by they are not demobilising the car?
Am I right? If so how do I go about sorting it?
Any advice would be appreciated
