I've recently been having 'fun' with my insurer and the 16vt conversion. The car - Alfa 145 with a Fiat Coupe 16vt engine, Fiat ECU and Fiat immobiliser. It has been insured for a few years now as this with HIC, underwritten by Highway, all mods declared for a reasonable premium. This year I have just renewed again, but they sent me a form to sign to declare that the Thatcham ...

Hi, fitting an Ecotec X20XEV engine into my Chevette, and was wondering whether i need a matching ECU, key, and reader ring, or just a matching reader ring and key? Is there anyway to bypass the immobiliser? As I've heard that fitting an aftermarket ECU chip will get rid of the immobiliser. If this isn't possible then would I be able to run the Ecotec engine using the loom and ECU from a ...

Hi there, How do you know what kind of security system your car has on it? Do they come with general factory fitted immobilisers at all? Sorry if this has been asked before... Thanks Ruth

can anyone help. i went to start my car as usual but nothing happened. the key turned and the lights went out (not a flat battery) and let go and the lights came back on. i know it's not a stuck starter motor as it makes no noise. i've ordered a new immobilser ring to hopefully solve the problem. any suggestions? also under my dash near feet (rhd drive car) there is some sort of plug?! ...

Hi, sometimes when I go to start the car everything goes dead. If I leave the key in the ignition and open & close the driver's door the dashpod, radio, A/C etc all start up again (time & date on dashpod reset)then when I try to start again it all dies. Eventually (so far) it starts. Any Ideas. ( 1999 225bhp)

In my s15 for some reason every now and then my immobilser dash light, the one passenger side close to the window, seems to stay on when i turn the car on. if i stop, turn the car off, turn it back on it goes away. weird as. anyone heard of this issue? It doesn't affect driving and see no problems, but it is very annoying. ECU never had anything done to it, it's just stock. ...

I've got a 2005 TD5 Defender Hardtop. Its the basic model with no central locking or owt. I've just bought a Nanocom and was playing around with it today, trying to set up my alarm with two 3TXA plippers I bought off ebay. Unfortunately, I clicked the "activate immobiliser" button by mistake and I can't turn it off now. I can't get the plippers to work either. My pride and joy is now ...

I have a 1992 200 Series tdi diesel Discovery, the Key Fob just decided that it doesn't want to work anymore. How can I reset it so the alarm doesn't go off every time I turn the Key? It won't start either as the immobiliser won't shut off!!! I hope there's a simple method of doing this. Ohh the key fob is a single button one - actually I have 2 key fobs, the original one hasn't ...

Hi everybody, Am looking at alarms for my 90 but I was wondering what part of the engine/electrical system will be immobilised. Also spoke to an alarm fitter and he said an electrical immobiliser can be quite easy to bypass on a Land Rover. I've got a disklock already and am gonna get a pedal lock. Would this suffice or has any body got any thoughts from experience about ...

Hi all, Could anyone tell me what electronic units are behind the glove box on a 95 disco 300TDI ES. got them wet and now the immobiliser isnt working nor the central locking, however the electric windows and wipers with intermittent function are all working fine. What box/es carry out these functions? - immobiiser - central locking Also what does the ECU actually do on a 300TDI?...
