Hey all,

Got a flat batt, replaced, now it’s asking for a code and doesn’t crank, but I have an aftermarket radio, and no code in docs.

Tried disconnecting batt for 10 mins, no dice.

What can I do? Have RSW and other tools available, but not sure how to reset BCU

Thanks for any hints.

Model and year of car would help.

OP's other posts were for a L322 MY2002. Mines had a few batteries but never asked for a code.
Don't see how radio code would stop it starting.

It's L322 2002 4.4 M62B44. Looks like "EKA code", but local dealership has no records of an alarm ever installed into the car, so they have no codes...

Yeah, I found that thread too, problem is I have no original sat nav installed. I have one I can connect, but with no code - removing half the dash seems a “meh” type activity. Local dealership says there’s no record of an alarm or a code, so they can’t help.

Anything written in the paperwork or fusebox cover? Back of sunvisor?!

Even if you get the code how can you enter it. I thought you could turn the EKA code off with diags
