Lost key fob
Our TF has been laid up for the winter and sometime since early March (last time it was started) the key and fob have gone missing!
Have spare key but not a spare fob so cannot turn off the immobiliser , no security code either.
Have read on this forum of a firm that on being sent the immobiliser will programme fobs to match it and make it work.
Has anyone the name and address of such a business, preferably in Devon . Also where to find the immoboliser.
Or is there an alternative?
Many thanks
Peter

You should be able to get the Emergency Key Code (EKA) from ~ http://www.mgrovercodes.com/mg/f/eka-code/ Looks like it's £20 - it will get the car back on the road.

Hi and welcome to the forum
The EKA is for emergencies.
Have a look for Technozen-electronics and remobolize.
