No. I bought it used a few years ago. DVD 131.03 v. 116.
I communicated with a fellow iATN member who seemed to be familiar with this problem.
He was sure that the SDD won't do it but says Autologic will. I don't have any close connections with an Autologic
There's a shop near me with a high-end Snap-On machine. He said he'd give it a try.
I may take it there tomorrow if the nasty weather holds off.
The beat goes on...

 

It's in JLR SDD, 100%. That's the dealer firmware. If JLR had to change a column lock, the replacement had to be coded to the ecu. The problem with the software is you need a road map if you are an infrequent user.

 

Hello again, ThorInc,

That's me: infrequent user. I would probably use it more often if it wasn't so frustrating.
I did find a function to configure new steering lock under Extras. When I click continue,
a progress bar appears, begins to fill out, but always stops after 3 seconds (out of 30).
Do you think this is where I'm missing what I'm missing? I don't see an option to edit.
Thanks again.

 

Stops as in, indicates it can't continue (indicates a time out) or stops but is still continuing to run on appearance? It's could be having difficulty communicating, getting a module response. In the tree menus is the correct comm module green? You need to have a lot of patience with SDD. If it's not getting a response from your column lock it may take a while before it moves forward.
If it's not timing out by obvious responses, leave it, make a coffee, drink it and come back. BTW, what interphase COMM are you using at the OBDII? Make sure the protocols are correct and working.
EDIT: Turn off, screen saver/sleep on your laptop and make sure that the USB laptop port won't 'sleep" as well, JIC..

 

After it stops, screen says "Programming Failed".
I'm not even sure which comm module should be green but most are and the ones that are not are marked "X". No question marks.
The OBDII cable is marked Jaguar/ Land Rover Diagnostics. It looks like, but is not specifically identified as, Mongoose.
I honestly don't know what you mean by protocols.
At this point I would be happy just to edit out the steering column lock as in the later cars.
I do appreciate your (and flybd5's) help and patience.

 

^^^ all modules across top row are green
...and thanks to merlinj79 also.

 

Thanks for the clarification. So it sounds like the column lock is 'dead" i.e. can't be programmed. Check in the PDI section to see if you can get to the drop down menu on the right and simply deselect it as a PDI option and overwrite the CCF. I don't know if it will give you that option to rewrite the CCF without the steering control module as a customer option or if it will actually overwrite the CCF totally eliminating it from startup/security check. (This is where engineering mode might turn a greyed out selection to editable). Now, IDK is the module died in the locked position if deleting it from the CCF would even matter but their must be a way to install a new column lock and communicate with it to marry it to the BCM.

JIC, it says 'failed programming" does not always mean it did per the dash display programming link I posted earlier. It also could not hurt to try this again and after it fails, still do a complete reset of ALL codes with the SDD software which would have been routine with SDD had the module not failed programming. Are you also having crash status codes?

 

Yes. Crash input code B10A2-00
I'll send more information later. Steering column lock I tried to program is new from JLR dealer ($400).
Engineering mode scares me. I don't want to make things worse.
Gotta go due to approaching storm.
Thanks again.

 

N/P be safe.
If so inclined down the line, try reprogramming/erasing all crash mode status first. It's easily done with SDD and likely the only tool that will do it 100% of the time. Good luck!

 

(I'm getting flashbacks of a week I was hired as a mercenary coder to fix someone's Novell Networks server driver code for a new dual-channel hard disk controller they wanted to work in mirrored mode. I hurt myself when I jumped in the air when I finally got it working. Still have the scar on my butt and I have zero clue how it got there. It all went dark right about that time.)
