Immobilser - beats me ?

JasonBoswell · 22-Sep-2003, 18:31

Firstly, thanks to everyone who kindly delayed their departure from Popham to get me going. So many thanks and I hope I can return the favour one day - although perhaps not in the machanical dept. Probably beers I guess...

Anyway, having narrowed it down to either the immobiliser playing up, or the start solenoid having packed up, I made it home without stalling!

But, the saga continues.. When I got out of my leathers, I went out to see if I could figure it out. Well, blow me, it started first time on the ignition... so no prob with the starter then. But the strangest thing is that the immobiliser now "peeps" when the ignition is turned on and resets itself when the ignition is turned off-- without using the immobiliser fob. Strange.

All points to a rather badly installed immobiliser thats finally playing up, do you think???

All a bit worrying as I have a track day at Cadwell on Thursday and then a trek down to Barcelona early October.

Any thoughts anyone?

Jason,

Careful how you answer that question ...

Weeksy is a scouser and there is no saying how he would use that info .....

lol

Only kidding mate ...

Hmm, well if the speed at which it was bypassed yesterday is anything to go by even a god-fearing nun might just fancy her chances!!

The black box itself is unbranded, but the paperwork that came with it (years ago) marks it out as a Ross Meta M1...

Think it's time to have it put down & get an up to date one fitted!

Indeed, you might well be right.

Can anyone recommend a good, reasonable alarm company. Preferably mobile in the W London/Herts area??

It sounds like you've managed to put it into some kind of Service Mode, which means that you don't need the key fob to enable/disable it.

If you can find some instructions for it then it should be easy to fix - you might be lucky and find some on the web if you search hard enough...
