Immobiliser Problems

Immobiliser problems are almost always the reason behind the car not starting. This is the system that checks to see if your key is the one it needs to start. It does this by transmitting a signal from the key to an antenna located inside the ignition switch, which sends it to the engine's computer (ECU). If the code in the ECU matches that of the key, then the car will start. If it doesn't, then various different actions are blocked to prevent the car from starting.

Normally, the immobiliser light will flash when the key isn't the correct one, but with some older cars, this would only occur occasionally. This is because the key fobs of these cars split open instead folding away, like modern flip keys. The tiny chip at the end of the car key could fall out. It could appear to be an unfinished piece of plastic, yet it is vital to the immobiliser.

If you do take the vehicle to a dealer, ask them to check the wiring using an electronic diagnostic scanner first. This will confirm that the problem is the immobiliser, and not something different. If it is, they will be able to "virginize" the ECU and allow the new key to be programmed.
