safe.lock module

The following models are affected:

• Fiat Ducato (2006-2018)
• Peugeot Boxer (2006-2018)
• Citroen Jumper (2006-2018)
• Iveco Daily (2006-2018)

Since model year 2019, the original vehicle remote control key has had a rolling code. This can be recognised by the new key ring eyelet. It is made of black plastic instead of the previous chrome-plated metal.
For Fiat, Peugeot, Citroen and Iveco, the key code has been known for a few years and has also basically been cracked, but it still makes sense to use the Thitronik conversion board.
Through the use of WiPro III safe.lock, you also have several comfort functions, e.g. control of the central locking system with the Thitronik wireless remote control 868 and unlocking of the vehicle doors via the Pro-finder or via Bluetooth with the network module, available to you.

If you haven’t used the conversion board thus far, the original central locking system will continue working normally. Nothing is changed on the vehicle in this regard. However, the WiPro III safe.lock deliberately ignores the signals from the original remote control (that come via the CAN bus) and even if the door could be unlocked mechanically, it remains secured by the alarm.

Our safe.lock Premium Partners will do this.

If you don’t want an alarm system, the safe.lock module can protect your vehicle from replay attacks. It replaces the vehicle-side radio receiver for the original remote control key. The supplied conversion circuit board is inserted into the flip key and taught in on the safe.lock module. The secure radio path between these two components then protects you from the reuse of ‘old’ radio signals.

Please also refer to the question ‘What happens with the vehicle’s remote control key (flip key)?’.

For the time being, you should no longer use it without a safe.lock product. The ‘unlock’ signal for the replay attacks can also be recorded outside your range of vision.
Tip: Remove the button cell from the flip key and unlock your vehicle manually; that way you won’t be in danger of forgetting and unlocking it electronically.

If you have a WiPro III safe.lock (art. no. 101050), have your WiPro III upgraded or use the safe.lock module (art. no. 101051) to control the central locking system, the conversion board (art. no. 101052) can be used for the vehicle key. It is registered like a Thitronik wireless remote control 868, e.g., on the safe.lock product.

You purchase this conversion board from your dealer, who will also convert your key. A manual is supplied for the conversion of the flip key, so the housing and key blade are reused.

Important note: To start the vehicle as usual with the flip key, you will also need a transponder for the immobiliser. Unfortunately, the one from the removed original board cannot be reused. A copy (so-called clone) of the immobiliser must be made. Your Thitronik safe.lock Premium Partner will assume this task (link to Dealer finder). Go to the safe.lock Premium Partner with your vehicle and ignition key on the scheduled date.  The transponder is not included in the scope of delivery of our products, but does not have to be organised in advance. The business with the copying device keeps the blanks. If you are interested in having a second remote control key, our safe.lock Premium Partners can offer one to you cheaply and already with secure Thitronik technology.

• Remove WiPro III central panel (or have removed)
• Complete, print out and sign this form
• Send both together to Thitronik (without further accessories or keys!)
• WiPro III receives the upgrade
• WiPro III is returned along with the invoice (to be paid by direct debit
• Central control unit is reinstalled 2 new wires for controlling the central locking system are connected
• Re-teach the existing radio accessories (input and output tests make this step necessary)
• You can now safely lock/unlock your vehicle
• The serial number is changed in the Thitronik app (1050-004 or higher)

Any WiPro III can be upgraded.

Burglars unlock the vehicle with a copied ‘unlock’ signal from the original vehicle remote control. The vehicle cannot distinguish between this external signal and the original signal and unlocks the vehicle without leaving any signs of break-in. And because the signal is routed through the CAN bus, all CAN bus alarm systems are disarmed.
Because this break-in and theft of valuables cannot be proven (no traces left), the insurance doesn’t pay.

In general, to convert the key, you first need a copy of the immobiliser. Our safe.lock Premium Partners will do this. It doesn’t make sense to convert the key beforehand because it will have to be read out in its original form.

You can expect to be able to use them for about 2 years. Factors such as the number of transmit signals do not affect the life as much as long cold periods do.

Standard CR2032 button cells are used for the wireless components. These button cells can be stored unused for up to 10 years (heed label). However, the button cells should be replaced every 2 years according to the battery warranty (manufacturer providers a 2-year no-leak guarantee from the time of first use). We recommend the use of brand-name batteries (Panasonic, Varta, Duracell etc.).

Memory aid: Replace the batteries, for example, with every vehicle inspection and/or gas inspection.

A weak battery (< 2.6 V) is indicated by an acoustic signal (5 seconds) on the central control unit triggered by the wireless component and a visual signal (the red ‘transmit LED’ only goes out after about 30 seconds) on the transmitter. If one button cell is weak, it is best to replace all of them.

The quick guide to changing the batteries is available for download in our  Support section.
