• How do I update my Autek IKEY820 Key Programmer?

  Connect the device to your PC via a USB cable so the screen displays 'USB SD DISK MODE'. Download and install the Autek Update Tool from the official site, input your device serial number (SN), and click 'UPDATE'.

• How do I add tokens or activate my Autek key programmer?

  Supply power to the device and go to the 'ACTIVATE' menu to generate a REQ CODE. Open the PC Update Tool, input the REQ CODE to retrieve an ANS CODE, and enter this code back into the device to successfully verify tokens.

• Does the Autek IKEY820 support 'All Keys Lost' for my vehicle?

  The device supports a wide range of car manufacturers for key programming and 'All Keys Lost' scenarios, but compatibility varies by make and model year. Consult the Immo Function List within your user manual to verify your specific vehicle's support.

• What should I do if my Update Tool SN field is empty?

  If the DISK is selected but the serial number is empty, unplug the USB cable and plug it in again. If it is still blank, you can manually type in your SN (it should begin with 'A-').
