Does the central locking work with the key?
If so, then I doubt that there is much you can do with the module!

It sounds like the transmitter in the key has failed. It may need to be reprogrammed or even replaced.

This happened to mine. Try sticking the key in the ignition, switching to battery and then pressing the buttons on the fob. This re-initialises the key.

Mine is a 2002 model, don't know if this works on newer models
