Could try this ,


If you are just changing the battery due to central locking not working. Then you can try getting into the car lock the door manually put key in ignition and press the unlock button on the key remote, within 30 seconds the doors should open and the remote on the key is then programmed. I have a Omega and this is how that worked for me. I would think the Zafira would be the same.
