Hey Lads,

Well I had my crossfire key stolen some months ago, and it was my only key. Ordered a new key. Two months later it turned up at a cost 611 dollars. Trust me. I searched around. That is just the cost in oz.

Anyway. I had the ECM out for that whole time just in case the perpetrator came and tried to steal the car.

I put it back in the car after three months. Flat battery. Changed battery. OK. All good. Put the key the key in the ignition barrel and it wont turn! Wont work in the doors either. With the lock buttons on the inside of the doors. You cant actually push them either.

It is like the car is locked. Steering is also locked. So effectively the key is seemingly the wrong one? Even though it has been cut and programmed from the VIN.

Anyway. I have attached pictures of the blade. It is cut on both sides. Same pattern. But mirrored and flipped. Can one of you blokes whip your keys out and have a look and let me know if that seems right.

Also. Any other ideas?

Also. Starting the car after so long of no action. Probably closer to four months. Anything I should do prestart?

Thanks in advance.

Vio.
