Help with replacing 2 button key remote

[hotnoodle]

Thanks very much for your help.
I guess there'sa no way of doing it but taking it past a dealership so they can program it.
Looks like ill stick to my other 2 button and grey key with no remote.
Thanks

If the portion of the remote that is the main housing with the key is intact, you might want to just swap the portion with the electronics. You can pop the case open with a blade. Then, you will only have to do the DIY process for making the remote keyless entry system learn the new remote, and you will maintain the same key with its transponder.

Oh hold up I might be misinterpreting what the transponder is.
I though it'sthe chip with the bbattery is attached together with.
The transponder is the imbedded bit on the side that has glue over it?
Would it be wise to try and remove the transponder over to the new blank key in have bought off ebay?

I don't think you could remove the transponder without damaging it. From your description of the problem with the old one, I figured that you could take the remote section and it's cover and stick them on to the old one.
