OK
Yes. That's the current scene
Yes, on manual unlock (driver's door only unlocks) and climbing in the internal cabin lights come on and the headunit's Land Rover screen is shown
I still get that but eventually, the headunit's Land Rover screen (where at the bottom I get --/--/2019) switches off and the internal lights go out. That's irrespective of whether the key's at position 1 (is that the same as what's referred to as 10º?) or not
The action of moving the key to position 1 does not change anything. I only now move it to position 1 (a) in hope it'll move beyond that, and (b) to try and go into retrain mode for less than 5 seconds before removing the key, press and holding in the unlock button, pressing the lock button three times in sucession and then releasing both.
Unlock LED then flashes 10 times. When I'd retrained before (believing this also permitted IGN) the door locks would lock and then unlock. And all the windows went down. The last time I tried this the windows just went down about 1" and are now stuck like that. I had no door lock operation.
That's as it is now on the bottom of the Land Rover screen before that screen shuts off
That was when everything was working AOK -- I still don't know whether I've inadvertently enabled FBH by that screen. Before I put all zeroes in the times it was just showing hyphens in the times
It's not position 1 that brings the head unit on. Position 1 doesn't change anything. When the Land Rover opening screen is showing, no amount of pressing either of the two buttons will bring the radio on nor the OBC screen. The only thing that will operate is the open front panel button that just exposes the cassette tray. Press the button again and it shuts. Or shuts by itself after some pre-determined time
The key moves into position 1 and won't move any further.
OK, one fact has been established - you are NOT turning the key to pos 1......
The fact that the screen comes on when you unlock or open a door is just the Sat Nav unit going through its start up sequence, it will then shutoff after a couple of minutes if it doesn't get a wake signal from the ignition switch at position one or above.
So the small movement you are able to make is indeed the 10deg 'wake the transponder coil' movement and not position 1 as you don't wake the radio up and be able to listen to it!
Now it could be a few things, Transponder in the key is lost/not working (small plastic piece that is loose in the key), Induction coil around ignition switch is duff and is not picking up the key.....
Now I have heard issues with the steering lock ECU and/or the internal lock solenoid failing can prevent the ignition switch and steering lock from disengaging.....you'll need to research this and see if it is a potential issue - loads of it on the web.
So, not being able to get the key to pos 1 means the ignition switch and steering lock are not disengaging.
I have a cut key without electronics and I am sure I can use this key in the switch, turn it to the 10deg position and back, then turn it all the way to wake the car up - obviously it won't start the car as it doesn't have any electronics in the key......but i am sure I can use it to turn the ignition on - I will have to check later......
If it is the case that I can indeed turn the key to get the ignition on (but not start the car) then it proves that even if the EWS doesn't get a signal from the key, you should still be able to turn the ignition on......but I will have to check this later when I go out.
