Is the door code the EKA Code? I've tried contacting 2 different service centers trying to get the EKA code so I can unlock the vehicle that way, but both said that the EKA code is generic for that year so they can't give it to me or I could go and steal other trucks from that year. From what I've seen online the code is tied to each trucks vin so I don't see how it could be generic. Anybody have any info on that?
it's a like 51515 or 15151 I can't remember exactly but you turn and hold the key in the door one way until the horn sounds and then go between lock and unlock based on the number of times specified and in theory it should "mobilize" the car again. lots of info out there that is more accurate that what I described.
When I hold the key to the unlock position for 5 seconds nothing happens to begin the code entry sequence. When the car is unlocked the security light stays off entirely so I'm not too sure whether the immobilizer is actually the case now. Also the two codes I got after scanning are in the pictures.
This may or may not be relevant at this point but you could jump those two solder points on the broken key fob with a paperclip and trigger an unlock signal.
I did that and it worked to unlock the truck, but it didn't change anything with the immobilizer state. Not quite sure what my next step should be other than maybe somehow tracking down a nano-com to use.
Sorry, I missed that in your post. I have little experience with this immobilizer stuff as well, but I remember reading something about lock/unlock three (five??) times in quick succession. Could be tricky with a paperclip but it might be worth trying.
