Hi there has anyone ever had a problem with the ignition key not releasing on a gtc automatic

Hey there guys!

I wanted to retrofit a Coming Home Module for my Astra J (A16XER).
The aftermarket Module needs a „door open“ signal to trigger the relay inside of it. I looked up in Autodata and searched the Internet but I cant find any useful information unfortunately. All I know is, the Body Control Module (BCM) should process the Signals but there are many cables to measure them all for my needed voltage signal.
Does somebody know or has a Wiring diagram/Pin assingment picture or something

It happened to me lately that I am unable to remove my car key after I have stopped the engine. This is very recent. The only trick I found was to re-engage the key (switch on without starting), move back from P to D, then back to P again, and finally turn the key anticlockwise and it would then come out!

Any idea how to solve this permanently? Thank you in advance.

Hi
I need to replace a key fob due to board damage, does anyone know a reliable place to order one from because I don't want to buy one that does not work properly thanks

Hello all

I was attempting to change the key fob for my Astra J as the flip bit had become stuck and it looked simple enough. Unfortunately had a nightmare trying to open the original key and have ended up damaging the chip inside  I rang Vauxhall and they said it'd be look at around £200 (not going to do that).

Has anyone got any alternative solutions? Could I potentially use another Astra J keys chip and program it to my car?

Appreciate any help.

Thank you,
Param.
