Red light flashing at the end of programming

Sun, 10 Sep 2023 17:33:33 +0000

After a few tries and using the forum here, I couldn't get the yellow and red light to come on at the end of programming my diesel sq5 2013.

I tried a number of things, including different versions and resets. Always ends up with the red led blinking rather than the yellow and red.

Can someone tell me what firmware version I should be on?

The wizard goes to 60.8, but the manual says it needs to be 60.10 or higher. So I tried both for the q5 and sq5 versions.

Can someone reset my flash limit?

I used 7 out 8 at this point. Looks like I'll need more by the looks of it.

My car is giving me power steering warning errors? Any ideas why that is happening?

SN: 001A07 470303 (module for reset). Assuming that is the serial number required.

I talked to 1 of your techs today on the phone about it not starting at brake and he said there may be another black & red wire for the brake but after looking at the factory wire schematic & taking the plug down again and physically looking at it, there is only 1 red & black but there is a {black& violet} & {black & yellow} after the brake switch on the schematic, so im thinking going to one of those? at this point ive tried everything else i know to do.
i watch the lights on the evo as i hit the remote start it goes through all 3 lights then after stays on 2 orange lights or 1 glowing over to look like 2? and still says "brake" on the dash as its trying

brake lights come on as its going through the process of trying to start also

so it looks and acts like its going to but fails, checked every connection with my fluke meter also, everything is wired correctly only wire in question i suppose is the brake
and i dont care about having to press on the brake pedal so if there are wires to connect or cut to just do away with this feature im all for it to get this project done

P.S. I never did get a blue flash after plugging in all the plugs and turning on ignition, just lights turned off so dont know if thats normal and not mentioned in the guide? or if something is still wrong?

thank you!

2011 Golf EVO-ONE w/Drone DR-5400 Lock/Unlock issue

Sun, 16 Sep 2018 22:38:02 +0000

Hello! Finally got my EVO-ONE and Drone working on my 2011 Golf manual TDI. I can get the Drone to start and stop the vehicle. I even got it to open the hatch.

However it wont lock or unlock the doors. If I hit unlock it seems to engage the ingition for a split second(gauge cluster and radio lights up) then turns off, and then the yellow light comes on. If I hit unlock again it does the same thing and then the yellow light will turn off.(The blue light does not flash at all.) If I hit lock the blue light will flash extremly quickly once but nothing else happens.

I don't want to have to keep flashing the unit and hit the flash limit because I can't change options when loaded on 0.50 RS firmware.

What do I need for smartphone start

Sat, 26 Nov 2016 11:42:03 +0000

2012 Passat TDI push to start. I want to have smartphone start. That is all I want. Do not want to carry two remotes. I looked on the website and I figure I need an Evo all, VW T harness, bypass module and an Evo start. Will that do what I need?
