Hi. I am looking for some information, advice or help. I added this request to my other thread regarding inlet manifolds but to no avail.
http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f10/p38-inlet-manifolds-160912.html
Are there any Scottish (central belt) members with a faultmate or syncmate tool, as the battery was allowed to go flat and then disconnected while my engine is being swapped, and the dash gave me the key code lockout message before the engine was removed. I tried to enter the EKA but to no avail (although I suspect the battery still had insufficient charge). I am just thinking about once the engine is back in and its ready to fire, if the EKA still fails. Could this even be solved using faultmate or syncmate, or is it a becm out job and send it away
I emailed Callrova through his website, and got this very much appreciated, honest response
Hi Barry, Unlocking costs £75 + postage.
I'll be kind now, Unlocking a becm does jack **** except to allow it be to programmed to another vehicle.
When the keycode lockout appears it's because some binary data in the logics has corrupted, & this takes a few other operating codes out with it.
All these codes have to be replaced in the right order at the right addresses. Our trade price for addressing this problem with a becm reset & service & testing is usaully £200 + postage.
But fingers crossed, the EKA code procedure will work & get you out of trouble.
Regards,
Richard.
Any advice/information/assistance would be very much appreciated.
Thanks
Barry
