L322 Aux Heater / Remote fob query

Hello Gents. My name is Paul and I own an L322 VSE TDV8 on a 57 plate that has the Aux Heater fitted.

I have contacted the LR dealer who has checked the VIN and they confirmed the vehicle has the heater fitted (I knew that as I use it utilizing the timer controls) and that if I purchased a remote fob from them at £80, they could then programme it up for £50....cheers LR guys

I have done the usual trick of purchasing a genuine brand new fob on line and wanted to see if any fellow forum users know if I can programme this myself ??(the webasto website gives instructions about removal of a fuse whilst pressing the fob buttons but i'm not sure this is applicable on LR vehicles)

Any advice would be welcomed

Thanks

Paul

You can program the fobs yourself. The best way is to locate the webasto remote box, usually behind the fuseboard in the RH Rear compartment in the boot, remove the main lead (if you can reach it easily, and be gentle when taking it out) wait a few seconds (at least 10) replug the lead and within five seconds press and hold down the ON button on the fob until it blinks, then hopefully 'bobs-yer-uncle' it will work. This is the procedure I used on my heater unit (mine's in an MY05 TD6) when I got a fob (off fleabay). Took a few attempts to get it right (also put a new battery in the fob first, they usually get sent out with knackered batteries!!).

Hope this helps
