Technical B1001-13 fault help!

Update : CAR IS RUNNING!! new keys programmed on my drive by these guys , they travelled a bit over half an hour to me, and did 1 remote and 1 standard key. Really put me at ease after having a local key guy closer tell me it was the BCM and have me in a real panic. I will probably need 2-3 of driving more the stress fully leaves me but he showed me how my key had no signal etc and re assured me it was a key problem

Weeks of driving that should say!

That’s the plan tomorrow, if it’s just a new key I will be so happy

Have you managed to get a new key? If not it might be worth noting that if you go to a locksmith for a key they will likely supply a cloned key. In normal circumstances this is fine but if in your case you have a faulty key the locksmith may struggle with the cloning. You might be better to get your security code from Fiat at a charge of £20 and get a new key made that isn’t a clone.
