    Great video. First time in 17 years my keys went out of sync, on my fully loaded Storm. Shame you've stopped producing YT videos, but know how hard it can be. If you ever want to start up again, happy to give some guidance as I've learnt a thing or two over the past 3 years. Thanks again.

    Thx a lot for this wonderful weird key training. My girlfriend came at me with "what are you doing!" trying to grab the key,
    when I casually could open by remote again ;D and she laughed happily for a long time.
    so much better with remote. chers

    • @mrbroons
      @mrbroons  Рік тому

      Can you tell me more Paul. You can check the voltage on your main car battery. Should be about 12v with the engine off and 14v with the engine running. If lower than that you could need a new battery or a alternator.

    Great stuff man! But I wasn't able to move my window back up with the remote. Is that an extra feature?

    • @mrbroons
      @mrbroons  3 роки тому

      I have found it to sometimes be car dependent Claes, the CCCM controls all of these functions and it may depend on the age of the car and model of CCCM if this feature is available. Might be worth checking if you have the one touch open and close feature also. Put the drivers window down, then up, then when at the top and it has stopped again try to put it up, this should activate one touch windows if you have that feature. Then check and see if you have auto close from the key. Not sure if that will work but worth a shot. Let me know how you get on. Cheers.

    Thanks for this, I just picked up an A2 (it's my first car) - Using this method I managed to get the spare Remote key to work.
    There are a few things that need some attention on mine but I think I'm happy so far, need to do a bit more driving in it and get it through it's first MOT to be sure :P
    Do you have any plans on doing some more mechanical videos?
    One suggestion - My drivers' door has a click and a bit of a jump to it when opening, I believe it might be the "Check strap"? - A video on replacing this would be handy
    I'd also be interested in a video on removing and cleaning the throttle body as this seems like a good idea to keep it running more smoothly....

    • @mrbroons
      @mrbroons  4 роки тому

      Thanks for the comment. It will indeed be the check strap. If you contact depronman on the A2OC forum he will well you a refurbished one. Easy to fix. I have 3 to do so I sure can do a video. If you find me my video on removing the door card that is a great place to start. I’ll be doing more videos soon, please let me know if there is anything else you need. Cheers. MrB
