I'm in this sort of bind right now. "Theft attempt" detected by car, won't clear. That attempt was me starting it after several weeks of no harness and all elements powered down.
ForScan says I need the licenced version to do a PATS reset; I'm fine with supporting it. Problem is, I have only one original key, and a clone of that. So - I'm asking for the sake of clarity on the post before mine - if I take the transponder aerial off the lock, can I use the original key in the lock once whilst holding the aerial against it, and the second time just plonk the head of any used AUII/III original key into the aerial (held away from the lock) while I use the original key to turn the ignition on/off for coding in the second key? Or to put it another way, when you first configure a Smartshield key, does it write to the chip? Or is the chip completely passive? Advice would be greatly appreciated. Want to drive the ute! |
