Jamie5414 Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 (edited) I've got central locking on my SR, I have to lock, unlock and re-lock mine with the fob for it to lock the passenger side sometimes (So I do it all the time so I know it's locked), would it just be a mechanical problem here, or is my fob shit? What's the max distance for unlocking/locking like with a Fob on the Glanza? Mine is about 1 to 1.5 meters....A bit shit really Edited January 31, 2014 by Jamie5414 Quote
Ollieh17 Posted February 6, 2014 Author Posted February 6, 2014 got a fob thanks to fremjay, but you have to be real close for it to work...is this standard for the glanza? Quote
TrisK Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 got a fob thanks to fremjay, but you have to be real close for it to work...is this standard for the glanza?yep need a direct line of site to the rear view mirror. if you hold it down and point it at the miorror it has a better success rate Quote
cherrye10 Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 got an aftermarket system from amazon.co.uk for €42 incl. delivery to here!!me and a friend did it in 5 hours. not bad for a 1st ever attempt at fitting central locking! lol Quote
fremyjay Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Same with both fobs, the one you have got and the one I've got, think that's why many people opt for an aftermarket systems Quote
Lewigi Posted May 30, 2014 Posted May 30, 2014 My original key fob works , but only from close range, do you guys think that replacing the battery in it will improve the range that it works from? If so, how do you replace the battery? Lol Quote
fremyjay Posted May 30, 2014 Posted May 30, 2014 If i remember rightly i think they may be soldered in??? Quote
Ollieh17 Posted May 30, 2014 Author Posted May 30, 2014 I asked this before and in general most people said the key fobs are just shit and only work in close range Quote
Lewigi Posted May 30, 2014 Posted May 30, 2014 haha oh dear well looks like it might be better to just upgrade the system then to something modern... Quote
JayJ Posted May 30, 2014 Posted May 30, 2014 As above the central locking is very old design and only works 1-2m from the car. Quote
