Hi, I’m looking for instructions on how to find the EKA code using the pscan
Tia

Is this with a car fitted with 5AS alarm? or a Pektron SCU?

5AS Lucas

1. Plug pscan into car diagnostic port (16 pin connector on newer cars (including MGF), green 3 pin connector on cars from the mid 90s).


2. Press unlock on fob.

3. Turn on ignition.

4. Start pscan software and select next:-


5. Select Alarm, immobiliser then select 5AS and select next:-


6. Select Read EKA/KAC:-


The EKA should be displayed after a few seconds.

That is brilliant thank you so much

Hello, why the scan will gave two eka codes?

because MG Rover changed the algorithm for the 25 and MGF. If you have a 25, ZR or MGF then it's the top one; if it's a different MG Rover then it's the bottom one.

Ok, so in the 45 will gave only one code?

No. pscan will always give you both codes. You must decide which one you are going to use.

Does it means that both codes could be used?

No. Pscan will give you two EKA codes. If you have a Rover 25, MG ZR or MGF then you use the first code. If you have an MG Rover that is not a 25, ZR or MGF, then you use the second code.
