Adding/erasing ignition keys

Add keys







This function is used when the customer has ordered new keys. The key code for the extra key must be programmed into the control module before the key can be used to start the car. The control module memory has room for six key codes.

Erase key

This function is used when the customer wants to exclude one or more keys from starting the car. These may be lost or stolen keys which could be traced back to the car. All programmed keys are erased from the control module

memory. The remaining keys are then reprogrammed into the control module memory again. It is important that the customer takes all the keys to the workshop.

Programming can be found in VADIS vehicle communication, function group 3.
