petrolhead63 0 Posted November 13 This relates to my other post of a stranded TD5. I have the EKA code and the handbook gives lovely instructions of how to enter it using the key, but using numbers/digits. My code has three letters and a number. What numbers do I use? I thought it worth a try, it may work to turn off the immobiliser and help diagnose the fault. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blanco 80 Posted November 13 Letters are A= 10, B=11,C=12 etc. HTSH Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Simon_CSK 34 Posted November 13 There is a proceedure to opening it. The locksmith who did mine once the code was inputted left it 5 minutes before opening the car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JUKE179r 0 Posted November 20 IMHO... Find someone with a Foxwell, Hawkeye or Nanocom to help change that EKA code to something easier to input and remember. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would sooner I can call up Landrover and ask them. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JUKE179r 0 Posted November 27 (edited) A couple of the Land Rover stealerships in my East Anglia area charge 80+ quid to retrieve the EKA Code. That is ridiculous for a 10 second scan. I do it for free (or for a beer!) for forum members in the local area with my Nanocom. Edited November 27 by JUKE179r Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
petrolhead63 0 Posted November 28 Land rover customer care were happy to help directly with proof of ownership e-mailed to them. I had it very quickly and they could not have been more helpful on the phone. The issue with this is until it was unlocked/disarmed the Hawkeye could not even be plugged in! I have left it as LR...as said useful to know it is on their records too! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
