G'day,
I've had my Frontera for about a year now. When I got the car, it came with 1 key which had a damaged transmitter. So I have always unlocked the doors manually.
I recently purchased a new key and had it cut, but have been unable to get it to code to the car. However, it will start the car, even if I take the guts of the transmitter out, it still starts the car fine.
So basically I have 2 questions.
1) Do these Frontera's have a built in immobiliser? I was told it did when I bought it, but I'm now thinking not.
2) Below is a picture of my key, which looks different to every other Frontera key I see for sale on ebay etc. Do I even have the correct type of key? This might explain why it won't code for the keyless entry.
Vehicle details: 99 Frontera SE, B-series LWB, Auto, 3.2 V6
Thanks for your help.
Regards, Rob
