You dont have to rip the alarm out as things wont work after. Take it to a alarm dealer and get him to code a new fob in. Look on youtube or google on how to program the fob in.

Learnt this lesson with a mondeo so I now always get spares as the first thing I now do before spending anything on the car so much easier.

Glad to hear you got it sorted.
