Sounds like you either need another lock cylinder for your ignition or your central electronics module needs to be readapted in the CPU. When you insert your key back in and turn to the start position does your car start? How about when you remove the key now? If it won't start now, or if the ignition lock cylinder doesn't move freely, then you probably need a lock cylinder. Adapting your central electronics involves finding someone with a VAG COM cable and laptop, with the information provided in the wiki at VAG COMs website. For instructions on replacing your ignition look in the forums on VWvortex.com

SOURCE: 1999 Audi A3 1.8T Electric Windows and Central Locking Won't work

will your passenger door open with the key and is it just one side that your windows are not working or both. if its just one side it might be your regulator motor in the door thats not working if its both it might be your central locking pump usually in the boot. however if both of them are working fine it could be that your key needs reprogrammed however i think the 1st 2 are more likely to be the problem.

2004 Dodge stratus radio wont work

It can be radio not getting power or issue with radio code and it needs programming.

To reprogram the radio there is 4 digit code. That code has to be inserted, once these code is inserted, your car radio will get into its actual setting where you can set/select your radio setting.


Many a time's radio asks for the code after car battery is disconnected.

On some cases to retrieve the code its mentioned in manual or else car dealer is other option to get car radio code.

Vw passat 2004, 1.8T, Radio has no power, I have checked the fuse per the fuse box diagram (20 amp) seems to be ok, but have changed with a new 20 amp fuse, still no power. Is there a secondary fuse in...

first check the aux fuse, then check to see if the clock comes on the radio, if it don't check the radio it should have fuses, check them. check the connector to the radio for power, with the key in the off position you should have 1 12vlt power with the key on you should have 2 12vlt power... if the fuses are good on the radio and you don't have any power to the connector, it could be a relay or ignition switch
