Immobilised

I have reently bought a 2005 Chevrolet Luv which was an official import for some time under the Isuzu ownership of that time (Isuzu Rodeo Denver). Excellent truck, but the key fobs do not work and this sets the alarm off when entering through the door. If I insert the key it starts just fine. I have tried the handbook reporogram, replaced the battery etc., so now looking for a speciailist who can repair or simply remove the alarm part and I'll use the key. Based in Wales - so somewhere close would be good.

The Chevy Luv/Colorado is built in the same Thai plant as the Isuzu D-Max/Rodeo.

I've bought one of each.
