Has anyone got a complete list of pats fault codes as we seem to get the question all the time maybe we could make a 'how to '
explaining how to get the code and what it means?

by **andykay** » Sat Oct 27, 2007 1:00 am

Here are the 4 I can find anyone care to add more :!:

Code flashes:
1:3 Key code not received. Is key screened by other keys or objects? Try different key: if okay then first key is faulty.
If not go to main dealer

1:4 Partial code only received. Try again. If not okay use different key.
If not go to main dealer

1:5 Key not programmed into PATS. Program key as above using master

1:6 Faulty link between PATS module and EECV
Go to main dealer

i was under the impression that 1-3 was a rim sensor fault

switch ignition on
immo lamp illuminates for three seconds under normal conditions
if it illuminates for one minute, wait and count flashes
the flash code consists of two groups of flashes (one set for each digit of the code) so * ** will be code 12
if you mis-count don't worry they are cycled ten times - or just start again

if the LED flashes rapidly the vehicle is immobilised

codes and definitions are:-

11 - immo control module not connected (wiring, reader coil connection, control module connection etc)
12 - immo control module not working correctly (duff immo module)
13 - key code not received or key programming failed (faulty key or key obscured)
14 - partial key code received (faulty or obscured key)
15 - key not programmed into immo module (reprogram or try different key)
16 - faulty link between immo module and ECU (wiring fault)
21 - less than three keys programmed (program more keys as necessary)
22 - ROM error - no ECU ID stored (duff ECU)
23 - ECU ID mismatch (duff ECU)
31 - code transmission error between immo control unit and ECU (wiring or ECU programming error)
32 - ECU/immo control unit comms - no response from ECU (wiring, immo control module)
33 - comms error (wiring, duff ECU or duff immo control unit)

Is it on the left of the first pic in this thread? It's a '99.

I think the change over was 1998 when the red key was dropped :wink:

Here's a 2000 model

Would this be better off stickied at the top of the tech section?

hi fred

im just trying to get all the info in one place then im hoping to do a type of how to for it with pics

by **FredTransit** » Tue Oct 30, 2007 7:07 pm

Ooops
I have fitted a new lock and tried starting her with the old Pats key on the key bunch
It started mostly, I did try it without the original key there :oops:

now the LED is flashing constantly with the ignition on ie its Immobilised :cry:

Can i sort this myself?

Replied to your other question.

Here's a video of a flashing immobiliser (PATS) code as an example for anyone looking:

Van not wanting to do anything, hopefully I will get this sorted with the help of 'Dan T'. Any ideas always welcome :!:

Tried spare keys and no difference. Nothing else has changed on the van...
