Thank you for the video. You helped me today. My key wasn't working, changed the batteries, and still would not open the car. I tried what you showed here and worked. 👍

Had 2 codes 1 Radio code and 1 EKA code, tried this numerous times and failed! Rang Land Rover HQ in Coventry and a lady told me there are 3 codes, Radio code Ignition code & Immobilizer code after receiving all 3 we realized we were using the ignition code! Returned to the vehicle armed with the Immobilizer code and Boom it worked first time. Tip to all make sure you have the IMMOBILIZER CODE!! Happy Days - Happy Motoring. Thanks for the detailed step by step instructions.
Hi Scruf72, kindly assist how do I get these codes, especially immobilizer code? My vehicle has been locked for a year now and the mechanics are unable to start the vehicle..... Please help
@@chrispinemmweemba6189 Hi we're in the UK and I phoned Land Rover HQ in Coventry, needed to prove we owned the vehicle by sending a picture of log book in our name and a picture of the owners driving license. Within an hour she sent us the 3 codes. As I said make sure you get the immobilizer code. Unfortunately without these codes no-one can help. Some garages/dealerships may charge you so go directly to LR and you should get them for free! Hope this helps:-)
@@scruf72 hi my leader, I have received my EKA code 6DE2 unfortunately they did not provide the procedure and wanted to ask perhaps you may assist me how to go about it. The EKA code which David provided in his video above was 6 1 7 D= 13 which is different arrangement from mine and am in a dilemma how I can use mine. Any help?? ♥️
@Festeringfesterer how did you get EKA code? My vehicle has similar problem and the mechanics can't start it.... It's a land rover discovery td5 please help
Thanks for the video. Fortunately, I never had to find my EKA code. I had the red alarm indicator light flashing slow and the hazards blinking for a while, but all I had to do was lock and unlock the truck a couple times and then the light flashed super fast and I did as the manual suggested by putting key into position II and it started!! Thanks man!
just had to do this tonight ,in works car park,car gone mad,alarm keep going off,thought some one had tried to steal it ,while at work,got missus to give me the code ,on the imob card,at home ,then watch this vid ,write down key steps,then go for it ,got it done ,drive home from work,disco 2 ,td5 diesel ,auto ,thanks for vid,not sure why car lost its code,but it did,my local landrover dealer said bring logbook,photo id ,and reg car,can have the code free,but that was the next day ,as had to get there some how,not do it over the phone
you all prolly dont care at all but does someone know a way to get back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly lost my login password. I love any help you can give me
@Avi Muhammad i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm trying it out atm. Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
So I was using my disco yesterday and when I came back out of the store my key can’t turn in the key hole on driver side door, not letting me unlock. Worked fine before. Had to break window to get in but alarm goes off now when I try to start it, any advice?
I am so glad I found this specific, straight to the point and detailed video 🙏🏾. Thank you. I need a new car battery. Will changing the car battery affect the alarm? Will it have to be reset after a new battery is installed?
Well we got EKA code from heritage land rover tried in vain tonput it in but no go...friend of mine turned up with vast experience of land rover probs.was there 5mns changed Transponder...BINGO it started on the button....No Code put in nothing....👍👏👏👏👏👏👏
“I’ve disconnected the horns because it just drives me nuts!” 🤣 bet it keeps making you jump everytime when you open the door, it keeps sets the alarm off!?🤣
Very informative. I have a nanocom so am I able to entry vehicle in this state & get the EKA code or is that not possible & I need to purchase it. Many thanks.
Hi this hasn’t worked for mine is it a 5 minute wait or could it be longer? Should I just wait until the lock makes the required noise regardless of the time? Thanks in advance
Hello David, With the English manual in hand I interpreted “all doors must be closed” as “all doors must be locked” before I started with de procedure to enter the EKA. So, all doors are locked! But now I can not initiate the procedure with the 5 seconds in the unlock position. Is there anything I can do now?? With the key I can not unlock the door. Turning the key has no effect what so ever on neither the door lock nor the dashboard anti-theft indicator. Please help me out. Regards Nick Waringa (from Holland)
If you’re reading this I have a 03 discovery 2 and the immobilizer is armed I have no key fobs and no code the car has been through 8 people and I can’t do shit because I live in Ketchikan Alaska no Land Rover dealerships here I can’t do anything and I need a car I also don’t have money to do anything please help me asap (edit) I noticed how yours didn’t crank but mind did idk please help...
Bit late but might help others. Ring a Land Rover dealership in the UK. With log book/Vin details and possibly proof of ownership. They CAN get the code. I did it from Germany.
You have to listen if codes been accepted 2 beeps from hooter..😊 sadly its not worked on mine possibly a hiccup with wrong code being given waiting for land rover to get back to me..🤔
Please help, my central locking unlocks the whole car on one touch, the engine will turn but doesn't start, the hazard lights won't stop working and the central locking doesn't lock the car also the temperature red light doesn't go out.
I have a land rover discovery td5 and it has been locked, I don't have the EKA code and the mechanics are unable to start the car.......please your assistance needed
When I turn and hold the key to unlock for 5 seconds the sec light keeps flashing every 2 sec. Has anyone else been unable to get it ready to accept the EKA?
Same here - I’ve had to do this once in the past and it worked. After flat battery charged - and needing to use this procedure again… I can’t get the light signal to start inputting the code after turning door key to right and holding for 5 secs… proper twarse.

Just a quick question how can I get my remote to work with the disco???
Excellent video..
Brilliant thankyou
Please how do you disable the horn/sounder , and also if I don’t lock it again will it stay in this state re the removed immobilisation state ? Cheers
Will this procedure allow the central locking to program as well?
“I’ve disconnected the horns because it just drives me nuts!” 🤣 bet it keeps making you jump everytime when you open the door, it keeps sets the alarm off!?🤣

Great 👍 thanks Dave
Will this work if I buy a new fob and put it in my case with the original key? Thanks

Hey mate, what dose it mean when you try and activate the code for the 5 secs but the red flashing light dosent change?
The micro switch in your door lock is probably not working so you may need to replace your door lock.
