No engine start possible - code needed
Inhaltsverzeichnis
Your vehicle suddenly asks for a code after replacing the radio and will not start the engine?
Possible reasons for a sudden code query include insufficient voltage or disconnection of the battery.
Extract from the manual
After three incorrect code entries or after three attempts to start the car without entering a code, an alarm sounds for 30 seconds on vehicles with an alarm system.
Emergency disarming:
If you have forgotten the code, follow the procedure below:
1. disconnect battery and reconnect after approx. 2 minutes, alarm sounds for vehicles with alarm system
2. switch the ignition key to position 1: The display shows a time display that runs backwards for ten minutes
3. start the engine after ten minutes
Available code
There is a code that has probably made it possible for some to start again immediately:
0000
1234
2767
Further option
Temporarily disconnecting and reconnecting the radio can also solve the problem.
Some users report that disconnecting the USB connection in the app (under general settings) also bypasses the query.
