Is the problem with the central locking (circuit board failure) or is it refusing to start the car (immobiliser failure)?

In any case it will need a new key from dealer, expect to pay £170 and you need to have your V5 registration docs.
the keys are NOT reprogrammable (for the immobilisor bit) so don't buy a second hand one.

Keycard not your only problem, your caps lock button seems to be stuck as well :-)

Mine stopped working too.... it locks and unlocks the car, but when inserted in the card reader and Start Button pressed, the display says Card Not Detected.

Ordered a new card from local dealers. €120 the card + €70 for programming.....
