Hi
We are making some spare keys for our 954 and have bought some ID46 chips . We get the bike in key registration mode using our jumper and the HISS light blinks 4 times ready for new key with ID46 chip but when we put the new key in the ignition and turn on we don't get the 4 blinks. I am thinking the chips we bought are in locked mode so won't programme the new ID46 chip. Has anyone bought chips that are no problem reprogramming?
Regards Hugh

 

Are you getting any flashes with the second key?

this is from a vtr site but probably applicable...

Ive never had a problem with chips from ebay

 

Hi
Thankyou for the reply .I forgot to mention when registrering a new key chip the HISS light is blinking short,long,short,long . on all 5 chips I bought. which means they have previously been registered to a different ecm or they are locked . Either way they of no use. I bought from an Ebay U.K. seller but they arrived 3 weeks later probably from somewere in the east. I will ask before I buy next time.
Regards Hugh

 

You should definitely send them back for a refund and provide the appropriate feedback to the seller to warn others.

 

We have found what the fault codes showing are when in registration mode (short, long, long, short) They mean a faulty transponer chip. Something must have to be done to a ID46 chip before it can be programmed. We have asked sellers on ebay if they can just sell us the chip as already have keys cut but will not sell unless we buy cut keys . Does anyone know where we can buy chips we can programme. I suspect people who say they have had no problem programming keys have bought a key with a chip and seller cuts the key .
