Question regarding Brant.
Hey,
I've been told of a few wrx's coming close to being nicked in my area at the moment so as I can't park in the garage at the moment I think it's best to actually turn this thing on. I've got the Brant instruction book in with my owners manual etc, but I didn't find it too helpful with what's happening with mine. The guy I bought it off gave me the code and everything although I can't seem to get it to work at all. The keypad flashes the number 9 by itself, then every other number apart from 9 at once, then back to 9 and just repeats this process. I've entered the code a few times now and haven't had an issue with starting the car yet so I'd assume it's not working. Any ideas on how to fix this? |

Disconnect the battery. Then reconnect, it should reset the system, do you have the code first of all?

Yeah, I have the 4 digit code for it ready to go.
I was hoping that would fix it, was going to try when I got to work tomorrow (no tools at home) But at the same time, didn't want to do it and of been given a dodgy code by the previous owner and be stuck at work unable to start my car. |

Hmmm. Take it to Mao at evolution R, he will take the shitty brant out and replace with an autowatch. He takes care of us p-Wrx members well.

Alright, sounds good.
I'll pm him on here and see if he can do a rough quote for me. Cheers for the help. |

If you search on this forum there is a thread with instructions of how to reset the Brant...it is a specific process... it's not just a matter of disconnecting and reconnecting the battery - that won't do a thing.

something similar happened to my mates STI and we did the reset below and no problems since.
BRANT RESET • You need two people to do this • Your car battery must be fully charged and in good shape (1) Disconnect car battery negative terminal for 5 to 6 minutes (2) Hold down 0 and # at the same time on the keypad and reconnect the battery whilst still holding down (3) Release 0 and # (4) Enter 0 four times on keypad (5) The keypad is now reset to accept your PIN

Brant shut my engine off when I pulled into the driveway about 20minutes ago. Luckily neighbour was there to help me push her inside the garage, definitely need to do that reset tonight.
