The hood on Kalina does not open, carrying out repairs 1

Principle of operation

The cable hood opening system is a structure that consists of:

- from the cable itself and its plastic tip;

- locking spring loops;

— hood opening handles;

— fastenings in the engine compartment.

When the hood is closed, its opening is prevented by a metal pin, which is fixed by the lock spring and ensures reliable retention and coupling of the hood with the fastening located on the frame part of the engine compartment. In order to open the hood, you need to pull the handle located inside the car. As a result, the cable is tensioned and releases the pin from the frame mount.

How to open the hood of Kalina if the cable breaks?

In fact, there are several popular methods that are most common on the Internet, such as:

  1. Sawing the hood with a grinder.
  2. Broken or undercut central plastic grille of Kalina.
  3. Use a long metal wire with a bent end to open the hood locking mechanism. Here is a video:
  4. Removing the engine protection to gain access to the mechanism.
  5. Other, less popular methods.

In our opinion, in a situation where the Kalina hood cable has broken, the most rational and less expensive is method No. 3 (using a long metal rod). The point of this method is to insert the wire through the holes of the decorative plastic trim (radiator grille), and pick up the cable at its connection with the loop of the locking spring. In order to understand where and what needs to be picked up, place the wire a little higher and to the left of the center of the nameplate with the VAZ logo. Then pull the cable to the right and the hood will open.

Varieties

Today, several types of cables are sold on the auto market: 1. Single-core (installed at the factory). There are original and non-original products. Such cables are not particularly strong and durable due to the fact that they have poor resistance to kinks during working bends. 2. Stranded.

One day I needed to check the oil and coolant levels. Well, as usual, I pull the hood opening flag, it gave in easily, but in response there was silence. And immediately a thought came to mind: The cable flew off or broke. I open Murzilka, and there’s nothing there about this. On the Internet there are only ordinary Kalinas. Remove the radiator grille and pull the spring.

There was another tip that you can remove the underbody protection and open the hood through the bottom. And today I got around to getting my car. I decided that I would open it through the bottom. This was the biggest mistake. Because to get to the lock you need to remove the air intake tube and reach the lock.

I did all these steps. I probably spent more than an hour fiddling around. And so, I got to the castle, but unfortunately, I couldn’t do anything to him. After a little thought, I remembered someone wrote on the Internet that if you tear off the nameplate, there will be a hole there and you can reach through it.

He began to slowly tear off the nameplate and accidentally tore off the grille. And then the solution to the problem came. I carefully, so as not to break the grille itself, squeezed out the screws, i.e. I found where the grille was screwed on and pushed it inward. There was a hole where you could put your hand in and pull the spring.

The hood opened. When I felt the cable, I was very surprised. Apparently the cable stretched out and was adjusted by placing aluminum wire. I removed the bumper, removed the pornography with the wire and adjusted it in the interior. After putting everything back in place and checking that everything worked, I left satisfied. When I was taking it apart I came across a problem: it was pushing oil through the cylinder head gasket(((.

Let's sum it up

When all tuning steps are completed correctly, the lid will close with the expected ease, and a situation will not arise when the hood does not open. This procedure should be performed on the side where the gas stop is present. This will prevent the hood cover from becoming distorted.

If the hood on a Kalina does not open, it is recommended to carry out repair work. The cause of the vehicle breakdown is preliminarily determined. There are two main ones: the cable broke or the Kalina hood lock broke.

In what cases will adjustment help?

Let's list the main malfunctions that you can fix yourself by just adjusting the car hood lock:

  • The hood has become difficult to close; it requires repeated slamming and significant force to close it
  • It has become problematic to open it (we pull and pull, but the reaction is zero)
  • Doesn’t “bounce” when the cable is pulled; when closing, an extraneous knock of metal on metal is heard
  • Rattling when the engine is running, in the pits.

Since it is almost impossible to describe all the models in one article, let’s take as an example a masterpiece of the domestic automobile industry - the VAZ car. Whatever they say, Lada cars roam the expanses of the former CIS more often than any foreign car. And, given their survivability, I think this will last for a long time... And based on the principle that this procedure, on almost all cars, comes down to similar actions (if you do not take into account the design features of the locks), you can derive a general adjustment formula. Let's start adjusting the locks, for example, for VAZ 2108, VAZ 2109, VAZ 21099.

Replacing the hood cable Kalina

To carry out the work you will need a “13” key and pliers. The stages of the entire replacement procedure are as follows:

  1. The first step is to remove the plastic lining from the radiator. This is necessary in order to provide access for further technical manipulations.
  2. We remove the cable from the place where the white plastic element is attached to the metal bracket, which is welded to the frame.
  3. We remove the second plastic tip (plug on the cable) from the loop of the locking mechanism (spring).
  4. Using a “13” key, unscrew the fastening bolt and remove the hood release handle from the base inside the car.
  5. We take pliers in our hand and unbend (straighten) the end of the cable that was bent at the factory for its further removal.
  6. Once the end is straight, it's time to remove the mounting sleeve. This is done so that the two ends of the cable can be separated from each other and freely removed from the handle.
  7. We remove the handle.
  8. We pull out the cable (it is best to do this from the engine compartment).

If the cable breaks in the engine compartment, you cannot do without an inspection hole

So, in order to answer how you can open the hood of a VAZ-2115 car with such a problem, let’s first take a closer look at this emergency situation. So, the driver, who for some reason intends to gain access to the engine, habitually pulls the corresponding handle in the cabin.

Solving this problem is actually not very difficult. If the break occurred directly inside the car, then in order to open the hood of the VAZ-2115, it will generally take literally a minute. We can consider ourselves lucky. The thing is that in order to open the hood, you just need to find the end of the broken cable and use pliers to pull it in the direction “towards you”.

Half the battle is done - you will hear a characteristic sound, signaling that the lock has opened. This means you can move on to the next stage of troubleshooting. Open the hood and remove the end of the broken cable from the lock spring. After this, it remains to perform a few simple manipulations:

  • remove the loop located near the handle;
  • loosen the fastenings located in the engine compartment;
  • remove the broken cable.

As you can see, there really is nothing complicated. A more complicated option is a cable break somewhere in the engine compartment. In this case, you are again faced with searching for an answer to the question: how can you open the hood of a VAZ-2115? If you want to fix a malfunction without damaging the car, then in this case you cannot do without an inspection hole.

One point should be noted here. If it is standard on your car, then to remove it you will need to unscrew several screws using an 8 key. Take a close look at their location:

  • 4 self-tapping screws are on the front;
  • 2 more - in the middle of the most standard defense;
  • the last 2 are in the spar area.

If there is enhanced shock-resistant protection, then the algorithm of actions will be slightly different. It is held in place by two crab bolts that press the fastenings of the part itself. Accordingly, they need to be unscrewed.

After the protection is removed, you gain access to the engine compartment, albeit from below. Before proceeding to the next step, be sure to ensure that the radiator has cooled down sufficiently. It is best to operate with hands protected by gloves.

In order to open the hood, you will need to perform a few simple manipulations. In particular, you should stick your hand up, placing it between the engine and the radiator. After this, reaching up to the level of the lock, feel its spring and slide it towards the battery.

However, there is another, more radical option. However, it should be used only in cases where there is no way to perform the manipulations described above, and you need to get to the engine compartment very urgently. In order to open the hood if the cable breaks, you can simply break the radiator grille using an appropriate object, for example, a hammer.

It is clear that this option should be used only as a last resort, when there is simply no other way out. Indeed, situations when you urgently need to get to the engine compartment somewhere right on the road arise quite often, and there may well be no time to search for a hole.

Accordingly, if the cable is jammed, break the radiator grille. It is not that expensive, while a situation may well arise where a delay in eliminating a malfunction in the engine compartment can lead to more serious consequences.


How to open the hood of a VAZ 2115 if the cable has come loose. Replacing the hood cable

Installation of sports locks

Sports hood locks can be installed instead of standard parts or as additional insurance. It is recommended not to abandon the original locking mechanism; this is an additional guarantee that the hood will not be opened by intruders; the latches on VAZ cars are quite strong and can withstand significant mechanical forces if they are opened.

Installing sports locks on the hood of a VAZ will require additional tools and some skills; the whole process takes several hours.

Tools and materials

  • tape measure or ruler;
  • round file;
  • drill;
  • open-end wrench 19;
  • crosshead screwdriver.

What causes the hood cable to fray?

The first and most common cause is wear on the hood cable. If the build quality of the car leaves much to be desired or its age is no longer small, it most often breaks off near the handle.

Usually in the cabin the hood handle is hidden at the bottom of the front panel and the force with which the driver pulls to open the hood cannot always be calculated. This way you can tear the cable away from the handle.

The second option, and quite rare, is physical wear due to the lack of lubricants, as a result the cable frays in the most unpredictable place. These are often creased areas under the hood or near the hood latch itself.

Causes

We have listed below the main reasons why the hood may not open:

  1. The structure jammed under the influence of frost (cold temperature) after washing. This situation can greatly ruin your mood and disrupt your plans. If you want to avoid this problem, be sure to dry your car well after washing. We also recommend (especially in the cold season) to warm up the car well before performing various manipulations with it;
  2. If freezing is local (hood lock or the hood itself as a part), you can warm up the problem areas;
  3. If the cable is damaged, we recommend going to a car service center;
  4. The hood may jam due to a “soured” lock. This happens when the car is not used for a long time or the hood of the car is not opened for a long time. Pull the handle that controls the opening towards you. If the element remains motionless when the handle is pulled, the problem is identified as “souring.”

Having understood the reason, you can choose a method that will help solve the problem of opening the hood.

Situations of breakdowns and the principle of their repair

As already mentioned, the first option is a breakdown in the cabin. Let's consider the option of how to open the hood if the cable near the hood cable handle breaks.

First, we inspect whether the cable is visible at the place where the hood handle is attached or not. You will need flashlight pliers. This kind of breakdown is considered the simplest and will not take much time to open. While highlighting the break point, firmly grasp the end of the broken cable with pliers and pull it towards you, the hood latch should work and the hood should open. On average, the process will take from 10 to 30 minutes.

The second failure option is a broken cable under the hood. In this case, the opening process will be much more difficult. To do this, we need a long metal rod about 40 cm with a hook bent at the end. A tool for removing elements that will interfere with the opening procedure.

The car should be jacked up or driven into an inspection hole so that you can freely view its entire bottom and the engine from below. Next, remove the engine protection, since in most cars it will interfere with opening the hood. Having removed all the elements that may interfere, we begin to open the hood cable.

If the place where the cable breaks is visible and you can reach it with pliers, then this is an ideal option. It will be enough to pull the cover well for the hood latch to work. If there is a break near the latch itself, you will need a metal rod to help.

Use the bent end to reach the latch; most often you can do this either in front of the radiator or behind the radiator. Most often, the cable and fasteners are located in the lower part; by hooking a rod onto them, slowly pull down the place where the cable is attached. Essentially, the rod will be used instead of the cable.

It is possible that you can reach the latch with your hand, but even in this case the engine must be completely cool. Which method is better for the driver or the one who will carry out the repairs?

Whatever the situation of the hood cable failure, its repair will be the same. Before this, you should buy a new hood cable with a new cover. If the hood handle in the cabin has burst, it should also be replaced, otherwise the situation will repeat itself.

Changing the air filter

To do this, the screws of the cover are unscrewed, the filter is removed, a new element is installed in its place, and the housing is screwed on. Experts advise performing such a replacement every thirty kilometers. And if the car drives on country roads, then it is best to change it more often.

Naturally, more serious problems associated, for example, with the engine or steering rack, should be solved with the help of specialists from auto repair shops.

Otherwise, we can confidently assume that repairing a Lada Viburnum on your own will be within the capabilities of any driver. You just need to study the operating instructions, consult with more experienced comrades, prepare the necessary tools and replacement spare parts.

The LADA Kalina, which is produced by AvtoVAZ PJSC, has gained nationwide popularity in the Russian Federation. It has a large number of admirers, has its own club, and many forums on the Internet are dedicated to discussing this car. But some malfunctions are typical for Kalina, which is why repairing this car is a sore subject for many of its owners.

In fact, repairing a Lada Kalina car yourself is not so difficult. From this article you will learn about the most vulnerable parts of the car, the most common breakdowns and how to eliminate them.

How to adjust the height?

Some Kalina owners notice that the gaps between the hood and the fender are not always even. You might think that you can adjust the position of the hood using rubber pads. By twisting or unscrewing them, changing the height position of the hood in this way. However, if you use this technology and achieve perfectly even cracks, then later, when opening the hood, you will need to make significant efforts, and this is undesirable. How to be? There is another method that seems preferable.

Extending the service life of the cable

As has already been said, most often any cable becomes unusable due to wear and moisture, sharp bends are not beneficial. Many drivers advise that before installing a new cable, it is worth lubricating the cover well with oil or lithol. But it’s still better to use machine oil, since it will go into all the holes inside the cover and lubricate the cable itself well.

As for sharp bends, it’s worth looking carefully during installation. It is in such bends that when the cable is used frequently, the cover will wear out. Therefore, it is better to buy a slightly longer cable and lay it with a margin to avoid sharp bends and chafing.

It would not be superfluous to even pour oil into an already installed cable from time to time and check for damage. It is best to pour oil into the installed cable using a regular medical syringe. Having collected a little oil using a needle, drip the oil between the cable and the cover, moving the mechanism itself to move the oil along the entire length of the cable.

Price of spare parts and repairs

First of all, you should decide whether you will repair it yourself or go to a service station. The cost of a hood cable depends on the make and model of the car; in many modern ones, an entire electronic mechanism is installed instead of a handle.

On average, the price starts from $2-3 for domestic cars and from $10-15 for foreign cars. Mechanisms in the cabin will cost depending on the model, regular mechanical ones are about 5-10 $ per set for domestic cars and 15-20 for foreign cars. If electronics are installed, then such a set will cost from $30.

The average cost of replacing a car hood cable at a service station, including the procedure of opening the old one, will cost from $15. Not to say that it is expensive, but there is not much work for such a price. At home everything will be much cheaper.

3. Check the lock and, if necessary, repeat the adjustment operation until the lock operates smoothly.

Basic information about LADA Kalina

LADA Kalina has been produced since 2004; production of the popular second-generation car began in 2013. Kalina-1 is available in three body types: hatchback (model 1119), sedan (model 1118), station wagon (model 1117). There are cars available with petrol engines of three modifications: a 1.4-liter 16-valve engine with a power of 89 hp. s., 1.6-liter 8-valve engine producing 81 hp. s., 1.6-liter 16-valve engine producing 98 hp. With. The LADA Kalina-1 has only a manual transmission with five gears. The front axle has a classic MacPherson suspension, the rear axle has a beam with stabilizer, springs, and shock absorbers.

Why doesn't the hood of the Hyundai Solaris open?

The lock drive and the lock itself on Solaris are quite reliable, but there are situations when they too can fail. However, the problem may not always be in the lock drive cable or in the lock itself. If the hood has just begun to open tightly, it is urgent to lubricate the hinges. to wash them with penetrating lubricant WD-40 before doing this , and then lubricate the hinges with engine oil using a regular disposable syringe.

It is important not to let the hinges get stuck, because when you open the hood, the pillars may be scratched from contact with the hood; it tends to move.

Can’t open from inside (reasons)

If the hood refuses to open from the passenger compartment, we can assume that:

    The drive cable, long (interior) or short, has stretched or broken; it is located near the lock.

If the hood does not open from the passenger compartment, first of all you need to check the drive cable.

Anti-theft hood lock.

In any of these cases, it is highly undesirable to apply excessive force to both the hood and the opening handle.

Upgrading your car

If the problem is known, why not solve it yourself, at the very beginning of using the car? It is quite easy and simple to reduce the noise level and get rid of dirt in the cabin by simply changing the rubber seal. The approximate price of the necessary parts is about 800 rubles, and the benefits of the procedure are considerable.

You can change the door seal on Kalina like this.

  1. To seal the doors, you must purchase a special rubber vertical seal RKI-19.
  2. Before installation, it is better to keep the part in hot water for 2-3 minutes.
  3. Prepare the door flanges, wash, degrease with alcohol, and dry.
  4. Carefully, using tweezers, pry off the protective tape of the heated and dried seal.
  5. Fix the seal at the top point in the rear door flange and gradually, peeling off the protective tape 10 centimeters at a time, glue the part. Important: when gluing, do not stretch the seal under any circumstances!
  6. After installation, it is better to press the part additionally for reliability.

To seal the hood, you can use a door seal from a classic Lada: it is quite thick, and its length is more than enough. It is not necessary to use glue; just loosen the seal and attach it along the edge of the car hood with pliers. Ready! Now the hood of the Lada Kalina does not allow dirt to pass through, and there is less noise and dust in the car interior.

How to open the hood if it won't open

In the case when the hood suddenly stops opening, we act methodically, from simple to complex.

First of all, you need to make sure that the cable works; the force on the opening handle will tell you this. In this case, you can try to remove the cable from the handle and pull it with pliers . Perhaps the lock is simply jammed , and the force on the handle is not enough to unlock it. If the lock does not budge, we try another method; an assistant will be needed for this. We ask the assistant to lightly press the hood in the area of ​​the lock several times, at this time we pull the handle or the cable with pliers.

Unlocking the lock

It is possible that in this way it will be possible to move the castle. If this does not bring results, we proceed to unlocking the hood lock directly. To do this, you need to carefully pry the hood on the driver's side and install a small wooden block of suitable shape into the resulting gap. This is necessary in order to gain access, albeit limited, to the lock mechanism. For this, a piece of hardened wire with a curved hook at the end is useful. With this hook we try to pick up either the cable braid or the lock tongue itself.

You can open the hood from the street using a hook, picking up the lock tongue through the gap.

This can also be done from under the car. To unlock the hood lock, you will need a long rod, sharpened for a flat-head screwdriver . It is useful for unscrewing the lock hook, and you can get to it from under the car if you place a sharpened rod between the cooling radiator and the air conditioner radiator. Sooner or later, we will open the hood, after which we need to understand the reasons for the lock’s failure. It is possible that the long interior cable simply broke or stretched (which often happens in Solaris with a mileage of 70 thousand). Its catalog number is 81190-1E000 .

Method No. 2

If the element is connected to the lever, but the latter moves freely and without effort, it can be assumed that the drive has broken in the lock area. How to open the hood in this case? To do this you will have to remove the radiator grille. On domestic VAZs it is attached to plastic latches. And there are no problems with its dismantling. On foreign cars the situation is more complicated. In order not to break the grate, you will have to use a different method here. A long flat screwdriver comes to the rescue. Using it, you need to feel for the entrance of the cable and pull it with a tool. You can get to this place through the grate. But if the dimensions of its holes are small, you will have to get there through the bottom, parallel to the cooling radiator.

How to open the hood of a Lada Kalina

If the hood on a Kalina does not open, it is recommended to carry out repair work. The cause of the vehicle breakdown is preliminarily determined. There are two main ones: the cable broke or the Kalina hood lock broke.

Repair work

The hood cable may break in the cabin (near the handle) or under the hood of the car. In the first case, the engine compartment lid of the Lada Kalina can be opened by hooking the remaining part of the hood cable with pliers. The work is done from the salon.

In the second case, you will need a set of tools and gloves. Repair work is carried out in the inspection pit. It is first recommended to study the mechanism of the hinged lid lock of the engine compartment. For this, a book on the operation and repair of Lada Kalina is used.

In the vehicle interior there is a drive lever located to the left of the steering column. When you pull the handle, you will hear a click. The hood rises. Then you need to approach the front of the car and stick your hand into the gap that appears between the radiator grille and the engine compartment lid.

With your other hand, move the safety hook tongue to the side, lowering the hood slightly. The hook is released from the lock. The lid rises. If repair work is carried out on a second-generation car model, then the gas stop of the Kalina 2 hood will independently ensure a stable position of the lid.

If there are no struts, you will need to remove the iron probe from the groove by inserting it into the amplifier located inside the hood.

If the hood lock does not work, you can lift the lid through the radiator grille. To do this, it is recommended to use a stiff wire or a screwdriver. Otherwise, you will need to remove the crankcase protection.

Using a flashlight, use a long screwdriver to press on the part of the lock that pulls the cable when opened. Before opening the hood of Kalina, you need to make sure that the lock tongue is free. The next step is replacing the hood cable.

Additional work

If the engine compartment lid does not open well, then the hood latch and bump stops that hold the hood in the closed position are adjusted. To complete this work you will need:

  • open the hood;
  • use an adjustable wrench to lower the locknut located at the base of the lock;
  • adjust the length of the rod;
  • check how the lid opens;
  • tighten the locknut.

Before adjusting the hood lock for reach, it is recommended to check whether the mechanism moves in planes (vertical, horizontal). The device may be accidentally dislodged while loosening the locknut. In this case, the lid will not open from the passenger compartment. Therefore, before adjusting the lock, it is recommended to dismantle the radiator grille (to provide access to the mechanism).

The engine compartment lid on the Lada Kalina may not open due to false triggering of the limit switch. A similar phenomenon occurs in hot weather. During this period, the hood becomes deformed, the limit switch button does not reach the lid, which provokes a false alarm.

In this case you can:

  • bend the mounting bracket for this part;
  • file your mustache.

If necessary, the part is replaced. It is recommended to buy a new limit switch taking into account the technical characteristics of the car. Reducing the gap will not solve the problem.

DIY tuning

To simplify the process of opening the engine compartment lid, it is recommended to install a gas stop on the Kalina hood. Tuning consists of replacing the standard rack with this support.

Experts advise installing a ready-made kit, which consists of a strut spacer and a gas stop. Parts are replaced within 20 minutes.

If you lack technical skills, it is recommended to entrust the work to a car mechanic.

Independent modification of the mechanism is carried out using keys 13 and 10, a flat screwdriver, a hood stop bracket from a VAZ 1118. The base on which the old mechanism is installed is first dismantled.

If the vehicle is equipped with a rough road sensor, then it is also removed (to the right of the support element cup). The sensor is disconnected from the bracket. Then the lower support bracket is installed on the glass. The sensor is mounted on a bracket and secured with M6 bolts.

The next step is to install the bracket on the hood with the ear facing down. The lower fastening element is unscrewed completely, and the upper one is left on 2 threaded screws. The mounting plate is inserted into the hole in the cover amplifier. When you press the bottom bolt, the bracket turns. The bolts are tightened.

The standard mechanism is dismantled. The hood closes. If a homemade gas strut is installed on a vehicle, then special attention is paid to the bracket. For its production use:

  • furniture corner (60x40x40 mm) - 1 edge is sawed off before installation;
  • metal corner (20x20 mm) - part of the product is cut off in the engine compartment.

If the tuning is done correctly, then the lid should close freely. This procedure is performed from the gas stop side. Otherwise, the hood may become warped.

If the hood does not open when there is a gas stop, then professional help will be required.

Lada Kalina how to open the hood the cable broke

Hello everyone, in this article I would like to consider a problem when the hood cable breaks and the hood needs to be opened. What to do in such a situation? And we’ll find out how to open the hood on a Kalina below. Go.

In fact, the procedure is not very complicated, you just need to take a wire, the wire needs to be rigid, and the end needs to be bent to make something like a hook.

The mechanism itself that needs to be picked up is located somewhere in the middle of the icon. The wire needs to be inserted into the hole and hooked onto the mechanism. This point may take some time.

After you hook it, you need to pull the wire to the right until you hear a characteristic click, and that’s it, the hood is open.

Just below in the photo you will see what you need to catch with a wire in order to open the hood on a Lada Kalina car.

Well, that's all for now everyone.

about how to open the hood on a Lada Kalina car if the cable breaks

Most often, VAZ car owners are faced with an annoying phenomenon in the form of a broken hood cable on the Lada Kalina. In most cases, this situation leads to the impossibility of opening the hood of the car, which causes a lot of trouble and inconvenience.

Principle of operation

The cable system for opening the hood is a structure that consists of: - the cable itself and its plastic tip; - locking spring loops; — hood opening handles;

— fastenings in the engine compartment.

When the hood is closed, its opening is prevented by a metal pin, which is fixed by the lock spring and ensures reliable retention and coupling of the hood with the fastening located on the frame part of the engine compartment. In order to open the hood, you need to pull the handle located inside the car. As a result, the cable is tensioned and releases the pin from the frame mount.

Restoring synchronization

Let's say the keys on the key fob were pressed 1000 times outside the system's coverage area. Then synchronization between the following devices is lost: the key fob and the central locking control module. If the power to the chip installed in the key fob is turned off even for a short time, this will also cause a loss of synchronization. The maximum time interval, as we found out from the reviews, is 6 seconds.

VAZ key fob in two versions

The instruction manual attached to the cars of the Granta and Kalina-2 family says the following: in case of loss of synchronization, the key fob is re-registered, that is, data about it is entered into the system memory. The recording procedure is quite complex, and to complete it you need a “learning key”. If synchronization is indeed lost, try this:

  1. Turn on the ignition with the key you want to synchronize;
  2. Wait 6 seconds;
  3. The immobilizer lamp should start flashing, and then the ignition is turned off;
  4. After 10 seconds the ignition is turned on again. If the immobilizer lamp does not blink, it means that synchronization has been restored.

Everything looks simple, but the specified sequence will not necessarily be effective.

If there is a “training key”, but there is not a single registered key with buttons, you can start the engine like this: turn the ignition on and off, the lamp begins to flash, then within 6 seconds the key is moved to mark II (starter).
