One of our customers reported that he failed to add a spare key to a BMW 316 G20 BDC3 system with Auel IM608 II programmer.
He generated the Autel BMW ikey with same fcc ID before programming, then disassembled the original key, read data and learn key. But the key is not working.
Possible solutions:
He made a mistake.
Don’t need to generate the key before programming!!!
The Autel is generating the new key automatically so you don’t have to pre-generate the new key.
The point is: Make another key without doing anything just put a new key on the programmer and everything will be handled successfully.
If you don’t have another Autel BMW ikey, no problem.
Generate the Autel key that you have as another key even if Hyundai or Kia and then put it directly on the programmer while programming the new key.
The point is to wipe out the BMW generation FCC ID from the Autel key that you have.
NOTE:
AUTEL does not support add key for all BDC3 Immo system vehicle models.
1. Ensure it is within the list of supported models.
2. MUST use Autel BMW ikey smart key. Autel does not accept other aftermarket or OEM key.
3. For keys with model years between 2020-2024 and the “Hungary” marking in the upper right corner, the success rate is higher.
4. Make sure you follow the correct instructions/steps to add key. Double-check the wiring connection during the read key data process.
