are you sure the key is original? it shouldn't matter how many keys are matched as long as one of them is detected. maybe the reader coil has packed in, worth trying another
just put another one on this morning that's the second one now and its the key from the car as I stripped it all out ,is there any way of testing the coil no fault codes showing
i think if you look in the clocks measuring blocks you should see if a chip is recognised, been a while since i scanned mine
there must be a way to check the immobiliser on the dash,would the ecu make any difference as its immo deleted and from an audi tt
it's locks you out I've had this a few times with immo deletes when trying to code clocks and keys do you have the ecu from the golf
what fault codes are you getting ? if it was me I'd try clearing all the faults and then pull the power/battery off for 10 minutes reconnect clear fault codes and try again also what vdcs lead do you have ?
01177,tried clearing says intermitant cleared and left overnight still same .don't know if its canbus from dash as these wires aren't connected but they only go to radio.vcds cable is vag168
i have now been trying to install vag tacho on 2 different laptops for over 4 hours with loads of different problems and I'm ****ed off that nothing works its all going in the dustbin very soon
what are your laptops running bud vista or windows 7 plus it can be a bit of messing about loading the driver on newer versions of windows if it's a eBay special the last vag commander I got the cd was smashed and they just gave me a link to the driver that i already had when i wanted the software gave up and down loaded a few till i got one that worked
been on it 11 hours now and worse off than when I started ,I got it off ebay I'm using vag com on my netbook running win 7 pro no problem,so tried it ,not working on win 7,wont let me copy instal exec from cd on my window10 laptop to try on my netbook,so take hard drive out netbook put spare in make bootable usb stick as no disc drive copy win xp and load ok,cant copy from cd wont let me,download vag tacho 3 copies install and hey presto none of them will load program onto netbook and all this so I can disable immob on clocks ,would have bin easier to take the led out and stop me going mental,maybe there faulty clocks
it is windows that is doing it you have to set it so you can load unsigned drivers I had to do this with the clone vcds I have
had to change my hard drive from win7 to xp as it didn't work this morning but sorted immobiliser is off now
Aye it's a pain i had to log into the bit locker to get to the settings to load vcds on it's driver for the FTDI chip that is the problem What was the problem with the clocks in the end ?
