Hello, just looking for some advice.
An Audi A4 98 was showing symptoms of needing a new key coil.
I purchased a key lock barrel assembly. (schliesszylinder)
Normally I would just carefully take the coil off the new barrel and put it onto the existing barrel, with the old key etc., as that's the part that generally fails. Always works fine. However on this occasion I just replaced the the whole assembly and low and behold it doesn't work.
Would this have anything to do with the key needing programmed or something similar?
Any suggestions would be great.

There is not much traffic here in the new member welcome area. Not really a good place to get questions answered. Try posting your question in the A4 B5 section, or trying a search. It seems to me like I have seen a similar question before. Sadly, I cannot recall the solution to the problem

good luck getting it sorted

have fun
