I bought car from auction it’s in valet mode. No trunk open anybody know reset pin. Dealer out of business

 

roadbird,

Try this,

1. Lock the car as usual.
2. Use the emergency key (it's inside your key fob) to unlock your car, everything should reset back to normal.

It can be reset via SDD, find a local shop that has it.

 

Thanks, RoverJoe.

I was just quoting from my user manual.

No key in fob. Looking for shop has SDD

 

Did you try #1234?

 

Yup my wife says I should sit there and try all combinations I am not Stephen Hawking!

 

 

I heard once from an older tech there was a generic unlock pin that was based on the queens birth year or something stupid like that, but I have no way of verifying that. It might be worth a little google-fu to see if there is something posted, but I've only ever used the dealer level tools to open them when the custom pin gets forgotten.

 

Rover Joe,

Your buddy was correct. The MASTER PIN is 1926 (QE II birth year). However, if the PIN has been set to something else, that PIN will not work. I'd give it a go anyway.

Someone tried turning the ignition "ON" then pressing the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the fob together until the car beeps twice. Again 20/20 hearsay, but worth a go!
