'05 LR3 Key Fob issue

[Marcus W]

I have a 2005 LR3 and 2 key fobs. 1 works fine and locks/unlocks and starts the vehicle fine. The other locks/unlocks the doors, goes in the ignition, but won't turn. Any ideas?

I suspect some issue with a worn out key. You can order just the key part from the dealer, and a cheap replacement FOB housing, and a battery on amazon and assemble it all..

I suspect I'm getting to a similar point, where once in a while I can't get the key out, so either the actual column lock is shot or the key, I suspect the lock itself.

Thanks. I ordered replacement fobs but hadn't tried getting a new key cut. I'll give that a shot and see if it works.
