Autel IM508S Program VW Golf NEC23C32 All Keys Lost with Godiag GT110

 This guide walks through bench key learning, a method where you program a key using just the instrument cluster and an Autel IM508S/IM608.

 

Step-by-Step Bench Key Programming

1. Set Up the GoDiag GT110 Simulator

• Connect the GoDiag GT110 to the instrument cluster (from a VW Polo 2009-2014).
• Plug in the 12V power supply to simulate the car’s electrical system.
• Use the DB15 cable to link the GoDiag to your IM508 tablet/PC.

2. Power On the Instrument Cluster

• Press the red ignition button on the GoDiag—this will light up the dashboard (simulating “key on”).
• The cluster should now be in diagnostic mode, ready for programming.

3. Connect the Autel IM508S

• Launch the Autel tool and select:
  • Manual Selection → Europe → VW Polo (2010-2014).
  • Choose Control Unit → Immobilizer.
  • Select NEC24C32 (the immobilizer type).

4. Enter PIN & CS Code

• If you have the PIN and CS code (extracted from the cluster’s EEPROM), enter them now.
• If not, you may need to read the EEPROM first.

5. Insert & Program the Transponder Chip

• Place the blank transponder chip into the GoDiag’s key slot.
• Select “Key Learning” in the Autel IM508S.
• The system will program the chip within 30 seconds.

6. Verify the Key

• Once programmed, the Autel will confirm “Key Learning Completed.”
• The new key should now start the car (once the cluster is reinstalled).
