Hi,
I have 2006 panda 1.2 with an original remote folding fob.

couple months ago the remote started to have problems, it didn't work in first try, needed some pushing of the buttons until received by the car.
one day it stopped to work entirely, so a week~ after that i fitted a new battery to the remote, the red led on the remote is now working normally, but the car is not recognizing it.

So I have tried to reprogram the remote to my body computer using MultiEcuScan and AlfaOBD, and both fails with a general error. it's like my car body computer cant be programmed to have a remote.

I had some problems with the key in the past, not sure if related:

1. rarely the car starts just fine but the immobilizer light on the dash is on (yellow light) - and the car drives normally.

2. something like two years ago the immobilizer of the folding key was faulty and was replaced, I got a new transmitter and just put it inside the folding key case.
(but maybe it was the car's fault and the new transmitter is just a copy of the one in the spare key?)

3. when I tried to buy a new folding key case from ebay it was slightly different then my case and didn't fit, and it was advertised as a panda key. like my car has an older version of this stuff and that's why the obd programs can't access it.

Anyone have an idea what is the problem? I have to open my car with the key physically

You mention issues with the immobiliser, is this the fault, or is it the remote locking you're trying to fix

The remote is what im trying to fix.

Is it the Immobiliser code you're trying to use to programme it

I want to reprogram the remote, not the immobilizer (which still working ok)

Reread my question

I don't really know what is the Immobilizer code, when AlfaODB / MultiEcuScan asks for a code I enter the number on the blue card that I received with the car.

(this is the right code, AlfaOBD syas login successful and in MES there is another function that use the code and it is working ok in that function)

It's the 5 digit immobiliser code you have to enter to reprogramme the remote locking. This is what I had to use on our Stilo to resync the remote commander.
