go back to the old code and just add +1 to the number so for example 12345678 would become 12345679, should work ok then

What codes are you using?
What battery make did you choose off the popup list such as VARTA?

Worth reviewing the Rosstech video guide for battery coding - can be slightly odd behaviour with number of characters and getting zero and O mixed up that can stuff it up
