OP-COM firmware v1.59: program keys + Carprog v8.21 read pin

PC requirement:

How to program key for Opel cars:

-> open OP-COM program

-> click through vehicle identity

-> select Body

-> click on programming-> immo programming

-> enter 4 digit security code

-> click program keys

Only one key can be programmed at once. After each key, please cycle

the ignition. If you want to program two, or three keys, please repeat the procedure.

Note:

[Program Transponder Key - NEW]

program NEW, not previously programmed key(s) to the immobiliser system.

[Program Transponder Key - OLD]

program OLD, previously already programmed key(s) to the immobiliser system.

-> new keys certification; make sure it works

In short, setup in OPCOM: Year -> vehicle -> body -> Cim -> Programming -> immo-programming -> security-code -> add new key

How to do if opcom error “Programming Failed!”

If the program gives you the following message: Programming Failed!

then please check the measuring blocks for more information about your transponder-key. The reasons could be as simple as

- wrong transponder type

- key contains no transponder at all (dropped out from key, etc.)

- transponder already programmed to other car

- Wrong transponder-key programming routine selected (trying to program a previously programmed transponder as a new one)
