Keyless Entry

[trollybus]

Once again turning to you chaps for a bit of help or inspiration, we have an 04 Cayenne Turbo with keyless entry fitted. when we brought the car the seller said that the keyless entry just stopped working, it has the dummy key which works fine, the two keys both unlock the car with their respective buttons, and the system recognises that there is a key in the car for the dummy key to start, and switch of by turning irn for two seconds. However none of the handles work, had the car services at PC Reading and asked them to look at this, their answer was that the car was showing a short across all the handles and that they would all need replacing??? Wow is this really the case, as I said any help would be much appreciated

Thanks in advance

Let the system first have to scan and reprogram with a PIWIS diagnostic tool, it is highly unusual that all four handles were defective.

I had exactly the same problem with my 2005 CTT it was the kessy module which was at fault, not cheap but it seems that some have solved the problem cheaply by opening it up and repairing it. Other threads have dealers diagnosing all of the antennae being faulty, again not likely!

Exactly what mcbit500 said, I did the repair last week, works like a charm! Might seem like a lot of work but wasn't too bad and a cheap fix.

Lovely chaps thanks for all the help

Brit6, what did you do to repair it? Would you happen to have a part # list? Did you do this yourself? Happen to have any pics of the repair? Just wondering how your repair compares with posts from past repairs.
