    Default Lucky escape !

    Unknow to me I decided to put my car key in the washing machine Yes what a numpty

    I found it in the rubber door seal after a 1 hour 20 min was cycle

    Oh well thats it thought I , looks like a costly new key and coding for the immobiliser and central locking

    Left it to dry for 2 days with the batterie and cover removed

    Always the optimist I put the batterie back in and snapped the key together and hey presto it only works

    Dodged a bullet there Al!
    “Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”

    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
