Hello,

today I have visit the local service of Skoda to ask them to fix the easy open function as before a change of the 360 degree cameras module, I was able to open and close the boot with the the KESSY (Keyless-Entry-Start-and-Exit-System) function turned off.

Now the service is telling me that after the module was changed and the software was updated this is the proper way to use the easy open function with KESSY option enabled.

I checked the options and when KESSY is deactivated it does not disable the easy open part also in the manual I was not able to find a information that this option is depending on the KESSY function.

So now I am able to use the virtual pedal only when the KESSY is activated and the local service is also 100% sure that this is how it needs to work and before it was not working properly.

And this is now correct for me as the function is not disabled when the main function is deactivated and also when I forget to turn on the KESSY option (mainly after car wash) I am not able to use the virtual pedal and it is a bit tricky when you have your hands full and cannot reach to the key or the boot button.

Can someone with Superb MK4 L&K let me know if they are able to use the easy open/virtual pedal with KESSY deactivated so I can go back to the dealership/service and ask them to check again why this is working this way with a single module replacement.

Or maybe I need to reach out to Skoda official email and ask if this is the case or not and maybe change the service (as we have 2 in the town I live) as I think that this one is just checking if it works the way I told them they will say this is the way it suppose to work and before it was just not working as it was designed.

Thank you in advanced!

If Kessy is disabled the virtual pedal is disabled too. You can check if the small led in the key is flashing when you are close to the car . If it is not flashing the Kessy is disabled , nothing should open if you try.

Yeah, when I enable KESSY the key red dot is flashing when I am near the car and I can open unlock/lock the car from the sensors on the door hadles. But before thw module was changed when KESSY was disabled the virtual pedal was working and the rest from the door handles was disabled as it should be. And from the infotainment system I see that I can disable and enable easy open even when the KESSY is disabled. So I was with the impression that the KESSY is not requered by the virtual pedal.

I also did a test before I got home today and when KESSY is enabled and Easy Open as well when I open the boot I do not hear the sound and do not see the flash from the turning signal lights like before and like it is writen in the user manual.

But again I could be wrong as based on the dealership before the module replacemnet the rest was not function propely.
