I've followed the guide in FAQ's to retrofit remote central locking to a friends Polo 9N but had a couple of issues:

 

Module installed, coded etc, but I'm unable to get the remote to pair. Has anyone else had this issue and what was the solution?

 

The original module was 6q0959433h (H02/S0002) and I've got 6Q0 959 433 E (H01/0001) - I know some have said you need the right sub-variant but others have had no issues interchanging. All installed and coded with VCDS no problems, just unable to get the remote to pair. Tried the original method of ignition on, lock door and press unlock x2 but nothing. The remote we got was the 'AH' variant but everything I've read says this is interchangeable with 'DA' and some on here have had no issues.

 

Also yesterday, I got told that whenever he unlocks the car with the key the hazards start flashing immediately (they flashed after about a minute initially which I assumed to be due to expecting an alarm to be fitted?), and also when he turns the ignition on, all the instrument check lights come on the cluster, but then there is a 'bong' but no obvious cause. I've not had chance to scan with VCDS again yet but wondered if anyone had any ideas - am I looking at a faulty module?

 

Any help greatly appreciated!

Have a look at this https://www.clubpolo.co.uk/topic/351775-vag-remote-key-fobs/

there is a link to a guide on what fobs are compatible

Thanks, that shows I SHOULD have a compatible remote (1J0 959 753 AH) so I hope someone might be able to shed some light on the issue. :)

Have you tried the keyfob matching via VCDS ? there is a video link on the Ross-tech site

I've tried but not been able to get it to work either.
