VW Passat Cluster Repair Part 1: Investigating No Signal from IMMO Antenna

Car came from auction with a non working key. I was called out to program a new key for it but it appears it's not so simple!

I did some off camera experimenting. When I moved the original clusters immo data to donor, the donor clusters antenna also stopped working. This leads me to believe that it must be something to do with parts of the immobilizer data. I put the donor clusters info back as normal and antenna started working again. In the end, I transferred the original clusters CS, VIN & PIN to donor, then I adapted donor to ecu with VVDI2. Everything worked fine for me after that. Didnt get a chance to film it, Sorry for anyone waiting on a part 2.
