disconnect the bat for hour, put back on then try it, lemme know how it goes. That worked on a pug

quicker way is to pop the key pad out and unplug it, resets it staight away

geordiegooner

left it with ignition on for 30 mins then tried it worked a treat.

All I did when I got my Saxo a year back was got a screwdriver under the pad, flipped it up and disconnected the wiring - worked a treat! Typical French Poop :P

geordiegooner

i'll try that next time certainly quicker than waiting 30 mins.car will do for her to learn to drive in and only cost £60

Was the car I learnt to drive in. "British" Green Saxo 1.1i SX. Was a fantastic little car, nippy, good fuel efficiency and cheap insurance. Didn't matter if it got a few bumps as it cost me £250.

I have just bought (today) a 1977 Ford Fiesta Sport MKI

geordiegooner

thats what hers is a 1.1 sx silver though,i'll stick with my focus st and golf thanks.
love the mk1 fiesta's after a decent mk2 to turbo though.

im pretty sure on these once you have entered the code and ign on you can dissconnect a wire from back and you will never need to use the keypad again

geordiegooner

anyone know if this is true??

look it up on the net its either you enter the pin and press C then disconnect when running or disconnect when car is running it bypasses it.

rs_turbo_tony

true mate insert code start up then disconnect keypad and shud start off key

If your pissed off with the key pad, unplug it when the engine is running and then you will not have to use it again.

geordiegooner

that will do me thanks,the buttons must be worn to f@@k and take ages to press in to get the pile of shite started.
