jims4 Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 Removed the clocks from the dash of my B5 S4 today and it seems i have upset the immobiliser, The ignition works and the car starts but dies again after a second and the immobiliser light flashes. I know the immobiliser is in the clocks but thought this was only a problem if the dash was changed for another. Is there any way i can recode this without VAG Com or a trip to the dealers as the cars stuck at my dads and i really need it tomorrow.

SPLiiX Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 Sorry my friend, I can not help. Can you not reset the alarm system with the key. Maybe Audi service department could help you (but that might be a first. Try the handbook. You could carry out the proceedure to reset the key, it's in the handbook. Just a thought....

nicknick Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 Try this..noidea if will work on a B5 ..but it works for my C5 A6 when the key / immobiliser (which is in the dash) looses synch... Turn on ignition and leave the key in when immobiliser is flashing and wait - up to 20 mins if need be - and wait for the flashing light to go out ...when it does turn off and start ...should start fine (if this works on a B5 !)

jims4 Posted May 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 Thanks for the ideas, I tried leaving the ignition on for 20 min's but no joy. The only thing i can find in the hand book is resynching the remote by manually locking and unlocking the door but this didn't work either. A friend knows someone with VAG Com so will see if he can help, otherwise i'll have to pay to get the car transported the 25 miles to the nearest dealer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
