Audi key remote is constantly flashing

Key remote stopped working with very intermittant flashing. I changed the battery and now it is constantly flashing and still does not work. The key on its own will open the doors and start the car.

You need to get the key re-programmed by Audi. Same thing happened with my A4.

SOURCE: remote central locking not working

As far as the central locking issue, it sounds like you need to replace your central locking pump. You can buy them online.
I have a 95 A6 and I am in the process of looking for a new central locking pump.
The part number may be 4A0 862 257 J, that is what it is for me.
There are directions online as to how to change this yourself once you get the part. If you buy from the dealership the part is $500.
Be thankful your child locks weren't engaged. We haven't been able to open our back doors since the pump went out.

SOURCE: Audi A6 Anti Theft Central Locking Tantrums

Sounds like you are having problems with your built-in alarm system. Like most systems in your Audi, you can read the error codes stored in the controllers. It takes a tool normally only a dealer has (VW or Audi) or an adapter like the VAG Com. (Google it)

I also think you can disable the alarm system and just use the key.

Could the lock button on your remote be stuck? Use a different key/remote. (leaving the suspect key at home.) The keys/remotes can be taken apart....

I Have an Audi A4 1.9 tdi

Sounds to be a security problem. Check or replace the battery in the key first. After that. It has to go on a scanner. You might want to get it to an Audi dealer for this. I have several scanners that tell me codes, but I can't do the Audi security.

I have a 2001 audi a4 cant program the remote i tried the 2 key thing the lihgt will flash once like there spose too but nothing after that

1. Put a key in the ignition and turn key to On position (not running)
2. Get out of the car, but the unpaired fob in the drivers door and turn it to the lock position, then while holding it there, press the lock or unlock button on the new remote.

If this doesn't work, change the battery's in your key fob,

if that doesn't work, check your fuses , number 14, and 38

Remote not working after disconnecting battery

If car Convenience Control Module(module that control key remote) lose power- remote adaptation to the car will be lost. This apply to some Audi models.
What you can try to do is:
1. Disarm alarm manually by opening door lock with the key
2. Put key into ignition and turn to on position (don't start the car)
3. Press few times remote button (with the ignition in on position)
Depends on your year model it my work (works on the newer models), if not you have to go to the dealership to program your keys.
Good luck!
