A while ago I was locked out of my car as my remote failed and wouldn't work (of course not at home), I tried my door lock but guess what, it didn't actually work IN the door, luckily the boot still unlocked so I could get home, what happened was the small nodule inside the remote broke apart so the doors wouldn't work, of course I found this out after I had to razor blade the key remote open.
Once home I then used my spare key but I also tried it IN the door itself to see if that one also didn't work in the door and you guessed it it didn't work in the door either!....BUGGER.
So then I was stuck with one key that only worked remotely so after seeing it was circa $800 for a key from BMW....WTF!.....I bought one off eBay for $50 and have been quoted $22.50 to have it cut, NOW before I get it cut my question is,
Why dose both my keys not work IN the door lock? AND how can I fix that?
