    Hi I have the DS708 and I'm trying to program a new key on a 2004 Holden TS Astra / Opel Astra G I used to work for GM Holden which rebadged the Opel Astra for the Australian market. From experience, when programming keys with OPCOM, you are given the option of reprogramming an old key to the vehicle (ie after replacing an ECU or Immobiliser ECU) or programming a new key. The DS708 only gives me one option and doesn't specify which option it is. So I've programmed the new key, and whilst the key is programmed and recognised as now being 'Transponder Key 3' I believe its been programmed as an old key, not a new one and won't start the vehicle. The transponder status is coming up as 'New TP-Key' where it should say 'Correct TP-Key'. Can any one suggest anything? Or can Autel possibly look into this issue and bring out an update? PS I love the DS708, this is the first time I've encountered a problem like this. Thanks Jim

    Hello, I have checked our protocol. As for this car, 2004 Holden TS Astra / Opel Astra G , we can only access the key program function via Opel vehicles. In the Anti-theft system, there is two options for key programming. One is to erase the key; the other is to program new keys. I am not sure your test path. ..Would you pls do a datalog with DS708, and send the file to support@auteltech.com? Then I will follow up.

    Hello, 

    I have the same problem on my scanner. The scanner sets the new transponder to new tp-key, not correct tp-key. Therefore, the car will not start. Please fix the issues autel!!

    This problem comes only when new transponder is used, not old one!!
