So, than start Information gathering for a Kessy Retrofit.
iichel a user in the Polo Forum did a Kessy Tetrofit on his Polo 6R, which is PQ25 Plattform like the T5 GP and T6.
Link is here:
retrofitting kessy to the Polo 6R - Page 4 - UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum
He brought us most of the know-how we need.
iichel is using a Kessy Module 5K0959434E that is a PQ35 one, wich works in PQ25, too.
Anyhow PQ35 and PQ25 share almost everything .... only the BCM and gateway are different
Short ebay,ETKA and VW Flash-Daten search brings more light into the Kessy Module.
Looks like we need the 5K0959434 Hardware, which can be updatet via Firmware to any version needed, if the rigth FW is available ...
Here we will need to try error test a lot.
VIM is a feature that we should take in mind when retroffiting Kessy
VIM is the thingy to open the boot with your foot.
And people on ebay claim that they have a KESSY with VIM Support
The device if it does have VIM hase it written on the Sticker.
So we buy an expensive one with this feature or find out how to enable it on a cheep one.
I got my first Kessy today for 17 Euro and will start dismanteling it the second is arrives.
Because we need to get the VIN of the CAR into the Kessy Module.
People sell this service.
From what i see they probably externaly read out an eeprom and change the VIN, that is it.
The Keys and other stuff of immobilizer are not in Kessy, they stay in ECU and Cluster.
So far for the Kessy Module.
In iichel's post most of the other Stuff needed is been shown.
Open Questions:
- Which Door Handles with Kessy support do fit the T5/T6 Mechanicly ?
- In my Head the Retrofit will only use the Keyles Entry option, KeylesGo will need a compleete change of the Steering column, that i am not interested in ....
Anyhow, lets get started ....
