Title: 97 8v GTI immobiliser problem
Post by: thomson07 on 30 November 2012, 12:01

Hi all,
im having a problem with the immobiliser, ive tried searching and google but cant find a definative answer.

I cant turn the immobiliser off, the led keeps flashing and doesnt turn solid so that i can start the car.
Ive no idea what make/model this immobiliser is, any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

 had a plug in type immobiliser ,similar but not identical
inside the plug there were a few resistors  , that had a broken solder joint
may be worth checking inside it
