Thread: New Defender Purchase...Security Card?

Funnily enough, I just read the same section of the manual a couple of weeks ago. Called into Blacklocks in Wodonga where we bought it and asked them for the magic numbers, now waiting on a email from them with the details.

Correct me if I am wrong.

I always thought it is stamped on the silver plate in the key ring

yeah my tag has

keep safe only record of key no. XXXXXX

but come to think about it, is it the EAK code?

I picked mine up in July and noticed I didn't get one then either.

The salesperson told me it was the number on the key, however I was told by the service advisor that the number on the silver tag is to reorder the key or remote (I'd guess more likely the remote).

I will be asking the advisor about it when I get the next/first service done.

The number on the silver tag is not the EKA code. That's the number you need to order a new key + fob I believe.

The EKA code is a four digit code used to start the car in an emergency when the fob is lost or has a flat battery etc. and you have the key. It might also be handy in the Wallan services type scenario were the fob can't talk to the ECU.

So, No-one got a "Security Card"?
Did anyone get one?

It's a pull out section in your manual - ypu can get the numbers off the dealer and fill it out yourself.
