TA31 Abrites Extractor: 7th byte on VAG and PIN reading from a working key on Hyundai and Kia

The TA31 Abrites Extractor is used to obtain the 7th byte on VAG vehicles and, on some Hyundai and Kia models, to read the PIN code from a working key. It is the accessory you place next to the ignition lock to pick up the transponder data.

Procedure

1. Connect the TA31 Abrites Extractor to the AVDI; for the special functions that require it, use the ZN053 - AVDI extractor cable, intended for special function VN006.
2. Position the TA31 correctly next to the ignition lock, as shown in the two photos in the manual: positioning is the critical part - if the antenna is not in the right spot the data will not be read.
3. Insert the vehicle's working key into the ignition lock.
4. On VAG, start the 7th byte reading procedure from the Abrites software and wait for the value to be acquired.
5. On supported Hyundai and Kia models, run the PIN code read from the working key instead, again with the TA31 in position.
6. Note down the value you obtained and use it in the key procedure for that vehicle.
