Re: Help! Audi gods are angry
Problem resolved!
PROBLEM:
Locks on S4 (and I assume A6/100 etc) got out of
sync with alarm and rest of system brain, e.g.
key would lock doors but system would act
like one had unlocked them (turn on interior lights).
Unlock doors, and alarm would sound when door was
opened. Even lock switch on front doors reversed
sense (push bottom part of switch, doors would unlock,
push top, doors would lock.
RESOLUTION:
Disconnect battery for 5 seconds
NASTY REPRECUSSIONS OF DISCONNECTING BATTERY
Surprisingly none. Neither the radio nor the phone
lost any state. I did have to reprogram the keys
though. As soon as I disconnected the battery
the doors unlocked and got back in sync with
the car computer. I immediately reattached the battery.
I guess the radio can stand a short power loss?
Thanks again to the fast responders to my plea!!
