Key: Description and Operation

Lost Ignition Key

It is not possible to replace variable code transponder in ignition key.

Ignition key must always be replaced if variable code transponder is malfunctioning.

All vehicle keys (subsequently ordered keys as well) are already pre-coded to a specific vehicle from the factory and can only be adapted to this vehicle. The subsequent ordering of ignition keys must be performed via entry of the respective vehicle identification number (VIN) and then the new keys must be adapted to the Anti-theft immobilizer control module (J362).

• If an ignition key is replaced or another ignition key is required, the new ignition key must always be adapted to the immobilizer. Refer to=> [ Ignition Key, Adapting to Immobilizer ] Ignition Key, Adapting to Immobilizer.

• If radio-frequency unit (transmitter for radio operated central locking) of ignition key is replaced, it must be adapted to the comfort system. Refer to=> [ Ignition Key, Adapting to Comfort System ] Ignition Key, Adapting to Comfort System.

• The function=> [ New Identity When Replacing All Components ] New Identity When Replacing All Components must be called up after replacing the lock set or the control module.
