Mini Cooper R50 R52 & R53 2002 - 2008 3 button remote key 315 MHz PCF7935 EWS chip

This product has been temporarily removed from sale as direct result of the Consumer Goods (Products Containing Button/Coin Batteries) Safety Standard 2020 which becomes enforceable on 22nd June 2022 and carries fines of up to $1million. 

All products that contain a button cell or coin type battery must be safety tested to confirm they comply with these new regulations. All button cell batteries must be in a new type of packaging with new labels. 

We are working with all of our suppliers to confirm this compliance before we make the product available for sale again. 

We should have had 18 months to get this compliance but sadly the ACCC did not inform our suppliers or us or pretty much any other industry and we only found out about this new law 4 weeks ago.

Please feel free to email us with the details of what you were looking for and we will give you an update on when we expect it to be back available for sale.

The remote in this type of Mini Cooper key is based on the early BMW systems and is programmed to the car via a manual process using a working key. This key suits the following models as long as they are using the same style key currently. Please check the photos carefully.

The transponder chip in this key can only be programmed to the car usig specific equipment. We are licensed to do this.

We can do this and cut the key blade at our workshop in East Victoia Park W.A. or you can have it done by your local licensed locksmith.

This remote transmits on 315 MHz ASK as do most BMW MINI models in Australia but we have seen a few exceptions to this rule where the remote transmitted on 433 Mhz.

The key is supplied with a battery fitted to the remote and a uncoded PCF7935 - EWS transponder chip also.

Feel free to email us a photo of the details on your key if you are not certain it is correct or matches this one.  You can always drop into our shop and we can scan the key to identify the chip and check the frequency of the remote.

This key features 3 buttons with Unlock - Lock & Boot. The genuine versions of this key use a hardwired battery which cannot be replaced but this aftermarket remote key uses a replaceable CR2025 battery in the remote.

This key blade matches the Silca HU92 profile as is widely used on BMW cars. 

We also offer a much stronger adn more stylish flip key for this type of vehicle, you will see this listed under Compatible items. We also sell replacement key shells for this type key if your original case is damaged and you just want to transfer it into a new case.

We strongly reccomend you always have a spare key for your vehicle.
