The keys to my daughters 2000 Discovery 1 have been lost and she lives on Easter Island Chile where there is no Dealer of any discription! What is her best option to get the thing running? Thanks.

 

Someone needs to call a dealer with the vehicle vin, ask the service manager for the vehicles key code number, have a blank key cut for her and send it to her.

 

Thanks Mike but dosn't the ecu have to be programmed by a Dealer?

 

no it does not. the engine will start with a regular key.

just lock and unlock the door and you will be fine to start it.

 

Sounds simple,dosn't the immobiliser have to be turned off or something.She has lost key and fob.My local Dealer say they need the car to programme?

 

program the remote on a discovery two only. the key itself will start the vehicle.

actually have them send her two regular keys instead of the remote keys. it will save them money if they are wrong and you wont waste the remote.
