After my keys were stolen, I removed the battery and haven’t used
the car since. In the meantime, I found some old fobs so, decided
to see if they still worked. Reinstalled the battery and tried to
programme the remotes. I tried the headlight flasher method but,
the slcm wouldn’t enter learning mode so, I decided to try the
valet button method. Now, the car is stuck in valet mode. If I
press the valet button, I get a tone. If I press the boot/trunk
release button I get the same. Boot/trunk will not unlock with
key. Locked and unlocked the car with the black headed key, still
stuck in valet mode.
Reading through the archives, there was a similar case and the
poster traced the fault to broken wire at the boot/trunk lights.
When I reinstalled the battery today everything was working ok,
just as it was before I removed the battery a couple of weeks ago.
Another post in the archive said that valet mode could only be
cancelled if the car was locked/unlocked with the fob.
Unfortunately, my only working fob was taken, along with the keys,
during the burglary.
Any help would be much appreciated.–
