New to Forum: 2002 A6 Immobilizer Help Needed!
Hey-
I recently purchased a 2002 Audi A6 and already may have a tow coming to me. They only sent one key unit with the car and no owners manual. The key fob was in tough shape so I wanted to put it in a new case. I ordered a case off ebay and move the internal chip and key from the old fob into the new case. When I went to use it would not lock or unlock from the fob. I went through programming to get the fob to lock and unlock the car and it works fine. Went in to start it and the immobilizer comes on and the cars kills 2 seconds after starting.
1) Is there anything I can do to fix?
2) The seller also had a valet key and is overnighting to me. Any chance that key will still work so I don't have to have the thing towed 60 miles to Omaha?
This sucks! I am going to post pics and more information in the main forum after I get this figured out. Have been browsing forum for last couple days and the info looks great. Thanks in advance for any help!
