Cloning service is also possible on most models. Q: How can I tell If I have an immobilizer problem?Ī: If your car will start and run, but shuts off immediately, with the "car in key" symbol lit on the dashboard, then you may have a faulty immobilizer. Please see the demonstration in the video below. (or if there is a problem with the immobilizer system itself) There should be a fault code stored in the ECU (P1570 or 17978 fault code indicates "Engine start blocked by immobilizer") The antitheft provision of the immobilizer shuts off the engine if the car is started without a matched ignition key. Q: My car doesn't run! Isn't this always caused by the immobilizer?Ī: No. If the car does not start and run at all, then it?s NOT caused by the immobilizer. If the car runs for a few minutes then stalls out while driving, it is NOT caused by the immobilizer. If the car runs rough, or misses and stalls, then it is NOT caused by the immobilizer. Likewise, deleting the immobilizer will not help if the no-start is caused by something like a dead battery, out of gas, or some other mechanical problem.
