Hello Friends,

Recently acquired a Boxster S with a Key FOB in non working condition. Followed and researched some YouTube videos and was able to solder on a working button that was defective. My FOB still does not work, even tried the reset technique in the manual. Unlocked my door via the key manually and pressed #1 button. Still no dice. Is there a transmitter box in the vehicle I need to reset or plug antenna? My key FOB diode does blink red and it has a fresh battery. Am I missing something here?
