Hi all where will i get my imobiliser code for the keypad on my 2006 hawkeye wrx? Recently bought the car and have not been supplied with it.

 

Assuming you have a working key fob..............

Changing your PIN:

- Arm and then Disarm the system using a working Radio Key.

- Within 30 seconds of disarming, type into the keypad: *17856*92*wxyz*wxyz# (where wxyz is your new PIN code)

- Arm the system with the Radio Key

- You should now be able to disarm the system using the new PIN code

 

Just to add..............

Keypad Use:

- The keypad allows only THREE PIN attempts and then will "Lock Up" if an incorrect number is entered a third time. This is a secuity feature to prevent random attempts at steeling the vehicle, however, it is also an inconvenience if you are suffering "Radio Lock Out" and enter your PIN incorrectly.

- The PIN number should not be entered too quickly or too slowly - when a digit has been pressed the small LED built into the keypad will illuminate briefly as confirmation and only then should the next digit be entered.

If an incorrect digit is pressed or the delay between entering digits exceeds10 seconds, then the LED above the keypad will flash rapidly and the PIN attempt should be aborted and started again after 30 seconds.

Due to the small size of the keypad some users may find a rubber tipped pencil easier to use. DO NOT use the sharp tip of a ball point pen etc, or press excessively hard on the keypad as this will only damage the membrane and cause a digit to remain pressed, causing a continual incorrect PIN.

 

Im in hte same position regarding the PIN.
would this be the same process for a 2002 bugeye.. WRX??
I guess its the same black box in the coin holder that we are talking about...

Yes.

 

Thank you sir.

 

Yes the key fob is fine m8

 

I don't seem to have my old pin number, so what you are saying is that if you have a working fob you can just change it? Also, my keypad was stuck up behind the rear view mirror!!

 

That would be correct Myles, info originally supplied by Sigma Sam in this looong thread..............

Were the keypad is fitted, depended upon model year, as with the vaious locations used for the alarm ECU.

 

BIG THANKS TO DON CLARK!!

just been and done this with mine, works a treat!

its abit odd, tho, i tested by unlocking the car with just the key in the lock (think batteries are flat in the key as buttons dont work)

got in and put code in, it locked the doors which i thought was odd but tried to start it anyway. the result was the alarm blazing out and hazards flashing lol.

so tried again, locked it and unlocked with key, put the code in and it locked the doors, put it in again and it unlocks and the red light by the clock comes on and it starts ok!!

so thanks again D:

 

Would this be the same on a classic?

 

Hi guys, just bought my first Impreza and was wondering what this keypad was and had been searching for answers. so thanks for that, as well as the pad, I also have a little gold colored push button just below the coin tray. could this be part of the alarm / immob system? I'm reluctant to push it until I have programmed a code into the pad (no manual or booklets came with car!)

 

With your name being 007, it could be an ejector seat lol

or if its been mapped it could be to activate a duel map etc

 

Haha I wish!
Just Googled duel mapping, and learned how to activate a duel fight (interesting), then somehow ended up on wiki (as you do) reading about manual boost control. I think this may be it so thanks for that.
Is the only way to tell if the ECUs been mapped to get it on a rolling road?

 

Is there any history with the car?

But yeah, having it on the rr should show if its been fettled

 

No history, I took a gamble on the basis that the engine, clutch and gearbox seemed sound. Just trying to get the car back to stock for insurance purposes, I will prob mod and tune in a year so.

Did the stock air filter this morning, going to tackle the boost controller next, but have read on here that usually the car has been tuned upon installation of the controllers.

Will start to look for RR garages in area.
Whats the rough cost for their time? Any ideas? (My mechanic thinks it's not been tuned or chipped though but want to make sure I'm legal.)

 

cost me £60 to turn up to my local rr and have them run it up. done it the day after buying to make sure it was going to melt etc

there are a few around your way i think so you wont have to go too far

 

Cool, thanks for your help, £60 is not much for piece of mind.
