Security code

[edgaras]

Well just want to ask and I don't know if this will be the right place for my question. By any chance any of you know if there is a possibility to get the security code for reprogramming PDM not from the main dealer?

I may be wrong but I think you only need the car security code that is printed on the credit card type piece of paper that is normally with the service book, manuals folder.
I made a few changes to my REC for the dimming mirror and thats all I needed.

As Lee says, you only need the Audio pass 4 digit code...

Sadly it is only a few models such as Corsa and Meriva, where you can use diagnostic devices to read the secuiry / audio pass code.

If you don't have the audio pass No, then I am affraid that the dealer is your best option..
Cost is approx 15 to 25 GB pounds. so approx 18 to 30 euros.
And would take a couple of days to arrive...

I was missing the radio pass and key pass when I bought my car.

I contacted the dealer who first sold the car (look in your car handbook if you are lucky enough to have it - it should say).

They gave it to me over the phone free of charge

It is something the dealers usually log themselves when they do the pre-delivery inspection (if such a process really exists)

Others have done similar and I got the idea from their postings on this site.

I have the audio pass 4 digit code and the problem is that there is no manual in my car
That audio pass is not working for reprogramming PDM so I guess it's some other code

[Robsey]

As a full CAN vehicle..
If the four digit code is correct, then there should be no issues..
Otherwise your programmer possibly requires updating. Seek advice from the supplier for support info.

On the same card as the Audio pass there should be the Security pass, otherwise, as Robsey says, it's a trip to the dealers.
What are you actually trying to program on the PDM? From memory there isn't that much in there to program unless of course you need to change the PDM.

[Robsey]

Unless he has added electric folding or auto dimming mirrors.

Otherwise only function is to reset / unpair faulty components, and then pair in new components - electric window module, door locking module etc.

For full CAN vehicles, the Security Number IS the Audio Pass No.

Earlier units (half CAN, were said to have a different code for each function)
one for security, immobilisers etc, and one for the radio and screen.
