My code is 5c7c... so I assume that is 5-12-7-12, right?
That leaves ample room for error
What do you do between entering the digits? I enter 5 as outlined on the first page by sierra ferry...how does the car then know I have started entering the second digit and am not just keeping on going with the first digit?

read again the instructions...first digit(number) is to unlock, second to lock and so on, so for yours 5 times unlock then 12 times lock, etc
the best is to set your own code with nanocom from a combination of small numbers, between 1 and 5 to be easyer to insert, eg 2 1 4 3 or so

Hi Kevin, when going from one to the other, it is essential that before going for example, lock from unlock, you allow the key to rest at the centre position, maybe like this:
unlock, unlock unlock (for 3) then allow to rest at centre (just for a second), then lock, lock (for 2) then allow to rest at centre, etc etc
You get the idea ?
Good luck
Dave

Hi all, Just had a nightmare of a time de-immobilizing my discovery 2. I found i was only able to enter code properly with these comprehensive instructions from the guidebook pdf(lost original), page 19:
http://www.discovery2.co.uk/pdf_files/01myhandbook.html
I don't know why they have to make is so damned hard

Hi Can anybody tell me where I can get my EKA code from? I have no paperwork that tells me what it is....
Getting fed up of the alarm going of every time I open the door. Bet the neighbours are as well.
Cheers
Dave

Tis to be found further up the thread, but basically you have to prove to a Land Rover dealer that you are the legal keeper of the car. He should then give you all the codes that should have come on a little card in the wallet with your handbook that you haven't got! Or you do something electronic with a good diagnostics, which I wouldn't begin to know anything about! Read the whole thread!

Hi, but why do you keep opening the door as long as the vehicle is immobilised?

Thanks.
I’ve read the thread and know how to do it I just need the EKA code to do it. Engine is not immobilised. Just cant turn the alarm off. I have to open the disco with the key......
Start the engine and the alarm stops.....

Then the EKA is useless cos it's to remobilise immobilised vehicles and you have to enter it every time not just once, you have to make it work with the fob or connect a tester and set the the alarm to "always ... see this: " https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/recommendation-for-d2-owners.184078/

That’s where your going wrong. Use the fob to unlock and unset the alarm system at the same time, so if u have an issue with your fob then why not resolve it?
You don't need a fob. Mine is in a drawer and it was for another lock I think.
Do the EKA once, then turn the alarm off. Once and for all. Make 3 times sure all alarm options are gone.
Make a copy of your key.
You still have central locking on the dash and unlocking or locking twice.

I think you missed post #30... as long as the vehicle starts no need for the EKA cos the tester will comunicate with the BCU once the vehicle was started. EKA is for immobiliser
