Remote Control Programming (1997 ON)
Procedure
1. Switch Ignition ON and leave the key in the ignition.
2. Mechanically lock the vehicle using the Drivers door using a second
key.
3. Using the remote control press the Unlock button once, and the horn
will sound once.
4. Wait 6 seconds and press the unlock button once to activate the coding
procedure. The remote control will now be programmed).
but the problem i have is ive only got 1 key so cannot follow instructions above.Has any1 any ideas how i might be able to activate the fob again without having to actualy go to a vw dealer.
