Leon flip Key guide

[Aliaksei]

You can not reprogramme the transponder from any key there 1 time use. Need to use one allready programmed to your car or get a new one programmed.
The central locking bit can be programmed to your car tho.
Hope that kelps. Bitofa confusing topic i know

Ok thanks! Just to repeat one more time:
I have a key from my "old" VW polo 2010 which is hella 434mhz etc. I take this key, take it a part, put the transponder from my Toledo valet's key in it, re-program (originally it's paired with VW polo) the central locking with "one key in ignition, one key in the door's lock" and happily go to have a cup of coffee right?

Bought this a VW flip key from ebay and had the blank key blade cut but on going to program it the remote will not program and operate the locking/unlocking of the doors. Am I doing something wrong or is it the wrong remote? It's a 2001 Leon Cupra.

What are the different frequencies for these remotes and how do you know which frequency they are? Cannot see any writing on the VW flip key I bought!

Obviously doing something wrong,there are 3 ways as said in this thread,have you tried them all ?

I believe its the Hella remote that is the compatible 1

Will retry again tomorrow and hopefully this time it will program the remote. Wanted a new transponder for this flip key so had a local auto locksmith out but he claimed he could not get the retrieve the SKC from the car.

Would it be worth buying a VAG-Tacho cable and software off t'ebay along with a new virgin transponder in order to create myself a new transponder for this slip key or is it unlikely to work in view of what the local locksmith said?

 

[scrappydoo]

having read through the entire thread there only appears to be the one procedure to program the remote, it's just the fact it's been repeated multiple times that makes it seem like there's 3 methods!

I've tried this method again and the remote still won't program to the car!

 

[scrappydoo]

Noticed my flip key is 2 button, whereas an awful lot of the others are 3 button....could this be why it doesn't work?

 

[Brettyboy]

Makes no difference but i think it need to be a Hella 1

Have you tried this http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showpost.php?p=1502225&postcount=2

 

[scrappydoo]

Yep, followed that procedure and still no good.

Have you watched the YouTube video, very easy to follow. If it still doesn't work I guess you got the wrong or faulty key ?

 

[Brettyboy]

I just bought this 1 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/230756774...WNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_500wt_950
Will let you know how i get on

Yeah, Followed all that to the book and it still doesn't work!

 

[Brettyboy]

Right,got mine today but noticed red led does not flash when pressing lock/unlock button so guessing need new battery,how do you get to the battery on them ?

 

[ladybird]

I took it into my local motor shop and they re-placed the battery for me !

Can anyone confirm if buying a VAG-Tacho will definitely enable me to obtain the SKC and program a new blank transponder?

 

[scrappydoo]

Bought a remote key from a Leon Cupra and it still will not program to the car! Is there a chance the remote locking aspect of my vehicle is affected in some way? is there a fuse maybe?

 

[karaman]

Found this 1 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/REMOTE-KE...ty_Security&hash=item3a71ce5855#ht_1824wt_934

Couple of things i want to get right in my head before i go ahead:

1) Can the blade on the standard key be transferred into a flip headed fob?

2) Where can you pick up the circuit board by itself of the flip headed fob as the two buttoned fob's circuit is no use. Can't see any sold separately on fleabay.

3) Have two keys at present, 1 standard and 1 two buttoned (central locking buttons don't work). Does it matter which key is in Ignition when programming flip headed key?

Thanks
