Xantia ignition key
What's the situation with acquiring a replacement key? My remote sensor key doesn't work, (except manually, of course) and It's the only key I have for the car...

Hi there, I had the same problem with my remote control, if you slide the pcb out of the casing you'll see 3 chips 2 small (eight pins) and a larger one 16 pins i think. Resolder the pins on the bigger chip very carefully, so as not to cause solder bridges between the pins.
The pins seemed to be soldered all right even under a powerful magnifier, but after re soldering, the remote is now working perfectly.
Hope this works for you, cheers Kathbert.
