Happy days are here again. Got the NCOM18, followed Grrrrrr's how to, mapped the EMS code to the immobiliser, cycled the ignition and - in true imitation - the batter was flat. A jump start later and she roared to life. Thank you everyone for your help with this.

Got it, thanks Grrrrrr

Further, to quote: Nanocom Security Learn in the doesn't work in the EDC menu. You have to take the EMS number from the EDC part and write that into the immobiliser code in the BECM section. I cycled the ignition and recheck to make sure the code stuck then cranked her over and straight into...

No worries. Thanks Grrrrr, I found a separate post on a P38 4.6 and it highlighted the Security Learn Mode for reducing, so I'll head there in the morning. Here we go...

Just waiting for my NCOM18 unlock code to come through and I'm ready but I need a steer please - the advice is to read the code from the EDC and write it back to the BECM, but I have trawled through materials & videos and cannot see where in EDC I read and where in BECM I write. Any guidance...

Thanks all for your help so far. Just to update, I have registered with BBS and am about to buy NCOM18. I have unlock codes 05 and 08 on mine so need code 07. I'll head over to the rangie later and follow your advice wrt reading the ECU and updating the BECM with the same code. As I don't...

Update. So it's not fuel related as there is now plenty of diesel. So most likely sync related. On my nanocom, if I go P38 > EDC > BECM then happy days but if I go P38 > EDC > EDC then I get 'function locked', so I'm guessing I need to pay for this feature to be unlocked. Is it this that I need...

Hi all. Good news and bad. The nanocom arrived, I followed all your steps and, after the lockout message disappeared, EKA put in and everything came back to life. Yay. Turned off EKA. Wrote to the becm. Job's a goodun. Drove her round the block, cleared out the cobwebs, left her idling to run up...

Grand, thanks.

Thanks, but am I right in believing that the EKA can be inputted via the nanocom even with faulty microswitches?

Little old Salisbury in deepest, darkest Wiltshire. Excellent advice, I shall follow it and report back as soon as. Thank you.

I am new to owning my P38 so this is all brand new to me - thanks everyone for your help and advice. Defo using the RHD method for EKA input with key. The fob is not working so I'm just using the key. I was under the impression that, in this immobilsed state, the fob and central locking...

When I connect the battery, with all doors closed, the headlights blink twice and the alarm is armed. When I lock or unlock the driver's door, only the driver's door lock operates - no central locking. If I open the driver's door at any stage, the alarm goes off and I have to disconnect the...

Thanks. If I've understood the EKA input process correctly, when I lock 4 times I should see an indication on the dashboard that it is ready to receive the code, but I'm not getting anything - which would suggest either that it thinks the doors aren't all closed or the actuator is at fault? Any...

Hi All. I have a 2001 P38 Diesel, currently immobilised, the EKA key input method doesn't seem to trigger any response at all. I have bought a nanocom kit as I have been advised that I can use it to input the EKA. It is due to arrive this week. As of now, when I connect the battery: - it...

Thanks for this. And just to ask - a nanocom would enable eka input regardless of faulty door latch?

Hi all, new to the group. I have a 2001 P38 2.5 which won't let me input the EKA code. I read that the nanocom may be the best tool for this, and I see references in this thread to icarsoft being very limited on pre-99 P38s. Probably a silly question and may have been asked a 1000 times but...
