TD5 Alarm problems advice
« on: December 13, 2006, 20:32:17 »
We have a customer with a TD5 Defender on an 02 plate.  It is immobilised and the fobs dont work, we have tried recoding the fobs with our diagnostic but the alarm will not allow it.  If its left for a while the system will work again but I am talking a few days.  

If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate it otherwise we are going to have to send the chap to the main stealer and nobody needs open wallet surgery this time of year !

Thanks

Try doing the EKA code in the door lock with the key, don't ask me how to do it, take it into yor landy garage and they will do it for you.

yes, we did that and that resets the immobiliser and allows it to be driven but it wont let the owner do anything to the alarm afterwards incuding locking the car and activating the alarm.

Any fault codes on the alarm??

Any radio masts nearby??

What diagnotic equipment are you using??
Can you set "Time Error" -  it might be losing the sync between the 10AS unit and the fob.  Try setting this to allowed and see if it makes any difference??

Would offer a hand but i'm not that local to you.

We have the Autodiagnos pro line, its excellent on everything but not the alarm, only allows plip programming and EKA extraction.

radio mast about 2 miles away but cant see as it would only effect his landy.

Been trying to find a laptop based 10as diagnostic system for a good price but rovacom lite seems to be the only one, nothing even on eblag !

Can recommend Rovercom... that's what I use  :wink: (but that doesn't really help you)

Shame your 175 miles away!! (and I doubt the train is that cheap)... or i'd have a look for you.
