Hi decno1
There is a lot of information on the Autohex website about key learning for all keys lost.
But can someone simply explain how to program a new remote key for a 2006 E60 M5?
I know I have to use the Tag Pro unit for remote keys, but everytime I try, the steering lock symbol comes on and the car will not start.
Now I know Autohex is a great tool, but it's just the information that is difficult to gather, especially when we a working on customers cars.

Can you explain, step by step how to program a replacement key, with Tag Pro?
The car has keys, we just want to make a spare one and every time we try, even the original key will not start the car, we keep getting the orange steering lock symbol.
Can you help, step by step?

Thanks

Perhaps you could do a video for this? You have a video for all keys lost and key learning in ignition slot, what about programming a blank key directly to CAS (option 3) using Tag Pro?

Thank you in advance.

**decno1** · 26th April, 2016, 05:24 PM

It is a straight forwarded procedure. If CAS Encrypted you will be asked to insert the working key in ignition slot, then it will program the new blank key which should be in HTag Pro.

Thanks, it was straight forward and I have completed it and the car starts and locks and unlocks properly. However, I do have one last question, after you complete the key leading with H Tag Pro, why does the yellow steering lock symbol stay there for some time. It disappeared after a while, but after completing the key learning, I was not able to start the car right away because the yellow ' faulty steering lock' error was present?

"It disappeared after a while" .... in hours mate .. roughly how long ?

**Jayyaj123** · 27th April, 2016, 11:13 AM

About 15-20 mins

**PremierD** · 27th April, 2016, 11:20 AM

not exactly a drawback mate .. go have a coffee .. come back job done

**Jayyaj123** · 27th April, 2016, 11:24 AM

I'm asking why it happens, technically because I want to know why it happens, meaning if I am doing something wrong.

**decno1** · 27th April, 2016, 04:06 PM

I admire your comments PremierD

For Jay, Actually it is about a software in the CAS, You don't need to understand why as long it got solved by itself.

**Jayyaj123** · 27th April, 2016, 08:12 PM

That's fine, and thanks for your answer. I just wanted to know because this time it took 15-20 mins, next time it could be a lot longer and when you have a customer waiting, it can look unprofessional 😎

That's the only reason why I asked. Support told me that sometimes the CAS gets 'confused' after accepting a new key, so as long as that confusion doesn't last a long time, it's fine.

Thanks
