It comes with a Service/Valet mode that allows your vehicle to start without the PIN code.

To use an OBD hacking device, you'll must have a laptop that has software capable of reading the OBD protocol. This can be bought for less than PS100 on eBay or Amazon. You will also require a cable with OBD pins that are connected to the CAN Bus. These cables are available at Amazon or Ebay for around PS50. The cable needs to be connected to the wiring harness of your car, such as the radio wiring harness.
