bear Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Try using the key to input your EKA. (Emergency Key Acess) Instructions in the handbook. Griff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griff I always use my EKA - once you have put it in (quite a faff) then your physical key works like normal until next time you disconnect the battery. Once you have it running on EKA you can get your current keys coded to the car if necessary. My keys are not coded to the car but I have spent the last 50 years using physical keys so I don't really mind 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine was typed out on several bits of paper that came with the car - one in the glove box, one with the log book etc etc. Presumably the last owner was worried about losing it. I photographed it on my phone for the same reason. I suspect that your friendly local Land Rover dealer could find it for you (for a fee no doubt) or it might be in the original docs that came with the new car - if you have them.

Any ideas ???? Happy you have resolve your discos issue, it’s a known problem with the receiver. Re. the access code, that’s normal... enter the code but don’t lock lock the vehicle there’s no need to enter it again, then because you re locked the access code had to be re entered again, I assume that’s what u did.🙂 Edited March 10, 2019 by teabag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
