      Thanks a bunch for watching my video and taking the time to comment. May I ask how your key lost its synchronization in the first place? Is the battery in good condition? Appreciate any update, thanks.

    Thank you so much for video. I have a 2013 EOS Executive which has the push put-on start so I am not able to put the key inside the ignition. How would I do the same thing you did if I do not have a keyed ignition and have a push button ignition.

      Few dollars. Amazing. I just went to Volkswagen dealership and they charged me $220 to reprogram two remotes. No idea why they got out of sync as I did not change the battery. Anyway. $220 later I see this video.

    Is it worth removing the cover? You can still insert key with civer rigjt? Like normally?

      Thanks a bunch for watching my video and taking the time to comment. To the best of my knowledge that will not work, the needs to be programmed to the car and then synchronized. Please share an update, thanks.

    Hello from Eastern Europe! Can you give me an advice how to check battery for FOB with the light - when close to the car or out of range. I have an error ot board: error keyless system and dont know from where is the problem. Mechanics in my town dont have an asnwear. Read some opinions that may be from the FOB battery. Thank you!

      Thanks a bunch for watching my video and taking the time to comment. Funny 2 people have complained about the exact problem at the same time. I am not sure what car you have but you may want to check for water damage, specifically in the passenger footwell to see if you have a module effect by water damage. Please share an update, thanks.

    • @WheelsTips
      @WheelsTips  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Additionally I have seen people have issues with the Keyless entry module, which you can get rebuilt for a lot less. Google search, repair and return keyless entry module for Volkswagen. There are places that will bench test your module if you send it in to see if the module is malfunctioning. Please share an update, thanks.

    I have a 2012 passat. FOB got slightly wet the other day and the unit is a little beat up. I put a new battery in it and it worked fine a couple days. Now I am getting Key not in range over and over. I tried this and it is not working. Any ideas?

      same here. just got the car battery replaced Monday. now its Wednesday and the key wont work after trying this 3 times, but it was working fine this morning. the dash lights wont even come on when I turn the key without starting the car like he said.

      Thanks a bunch for watching my video and taking the time to comment. You may want to just make sure you don’t have any water leaks especially on the passenger footwell. Next I would try a hard reset, making sure you have your radio codes and whatnot. If all fails you may want to scan the car for faults in other modules. Please share an update, thanks.

    • @WheelsTips
      @WheelsTips  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      If you have an intermittent issue like this I would check for water damage to your modules, like the BCM which is under the passenger footwell often times and on older models can get water damaged. Please share an update. This usually happens from poor sunroof drain tube maintenance.

    Thank you so much! I watched and tried to do this with 7 other videos! I couldn’t get the aux lights to come on so I hooked up a power bank to jump the engine when, of course, the alarm went off. So I followed your direction and we are on the road again after a battery change for the fob and your perfect instructions! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

      Thanks a bunch for watching my video and taking the time to comment. You may want to give your car a full system scan to see what fault codes are present. Also with a full access scan tool you would be able to track different values when testing for optimal diagnostics. Please share an update, thanks.
