so another small and stupid question from my side;
could using another key in my ignition sort out my car;
I did change battery in my keyfob recently and my car worked and started perfectly fine;
and the one kia mechanic did mention I should see a yellow key symbol and I dont see it ;
could it really be that simple?
Im gonna shoot myself if that is the case.....
Your key contains a transponder (which is NOT battery powered) which is keyed to your car's immobiliser.
If you use a key which isn't coded to your car it will probably not start.
