...like a surf key with no remote/transponder the alarm triggers anyway?
And if you have active WeConnect that should raise an alert via the SOS/LTE module. I hope that happens instantly because otherwise they have time to attack it, but thinking about it I've never tested on mine.

OK, thanks. It's going in next week. I wonder if they'll do it. Although last time they did something and replaced the SOS module it wiped all my digi dash retrofit coding
...in the dealership. They told me it was 2 major software updates taking 4+ hours each to do, 1 on the infotainment system and 1 to do with the SOS button (which was green but not working) after that a full reset.
Hope this helps, they wouldn't give me any more information than that.

VW dealer has just done software resets and updates... knocked out the digital dash (haven't checked the rear speakers yet :oops:).
My SOS light is also green.. but the van will not let me set a Primary User, and I have no online services..
A few images of T6.1 we had in today for a Alpine Halo 905

The triangle is lit and the same warning about "SOS unavailable, contact workshop" on the console.
My vehicle is still under warranty but I fully expect the moaning about it being converted.

Fault on it, but not covered under warranty due to conversion and damaged sustained prior to me buying it from salvage auction. Maybe I'll move to the rear. Do you think a 3m fakra extension would work?
I need to move my aerial from the front of the van to the rear. I've found a 3m fakra extension, but what is it for? If it's for SOS I won't bother relocate as it's disabled and just seal the hole.

Telematics (SOS unit):

13631561 - Internal Control Module Memory Check Sum Error (Internal electronic failure)
The SOS module hardware itself really isn’t causing many of these faults by all accts.
It’s a SW/FW issue that this 5F update addresses. There are a few independents with ODIS who can do the update (@Dav-Tec) but he’s in Bolsover so a good way from you I think.
