Range Rover P38 EKA Input mode key code entry

[@HF_AscotShed]

Your video helped me realise that I needed to calm down and wait a while before I could enter the EKA code, which saved the day. BTW, it actually takes 30 minutes. I've owned P38s for years and now that I own a few I disconnect the battery if I'm not driving one regularly. Once powered up again, I then enter the EKA using a Nanocom (especially handy if you have a faulty door lock), but somehow I've never been 'locked out' in this manner before. Not knowingly at least. Only seen the "Engine Disabled" notice. The Nanocom simply doesn't communicate with the BECM during "key code lockout", which can cause panic (in the unsuspecting owner) and very confusing feedback; All the factory settings appear to have been wiped - I genuinely thought the BECM was toast! Perhaps I've always faffed for at least 30 minutes after reattaching a battery, and never noticed the lockout notice. Very likely, but this time I was in a hurry. Regardless, your 4 year old video gave me pause and hope. And eventually the code worked. Joy! The BECM was fine, just not ready to talk to the Nanocom yet. Noted for future reference. Aaaaaand breathe! Thank you. We're never too old or jaded to learn something new about P38s.

@HF_AscotShed glad it helped all these years later. I should probably do a more up to date and abit more clear version. There is always something new to learn on the p38. I wondered if they got stolen much when they were new because I can't even steal my own some days 🤣🤣

Thank you so much for this video. This is exactly what I have been dealing with and watching you figure it all out as you go helps a lot.

Ive got a p38 and cant get it going, was sat for 6 months. Flat battery Key code lockout and engine disabled. Not sure what the code is. Is there 1 code.

[@jamescollett3746]

Hi yes you will need to get the code for your car. You can get them from a main dealership.

[@rockinnathan]

@@jamescollett3746 just ring them up and give them the reg?

[@rockinnathan]

@@jamescollett3746 i was hoping there was a bypass or rewire trick but apparently not.

[@jamescollett3746]

No bypass unfortunately. Yeah give them a ring they might give it you over the phone but some dealers ask to see vehicle documents.

[@grucu]

All codes in any car are the same? So 4 times left, 2 right, 4 times left and how many times right?

[@neilfixes5501]

No... Rsnge Rover p38 clear lens models only, Unique code for each car.
