Trace out the immobiliser and remove it.
Don't think you will find anyone willing to explain how to potentially steal the cars we love on a public forum.

I couldn't tell you what colour cables you are looking for anyway. Try download the manual for the individual immobiliser and reverse the fitting instructions.

I guessed aftermarket as he said it had broken off keys and that it had to be "put in".
I have no idea what was originally factory fitted but I guess an in key transponder.

Re: Immobilizer problem (Well...it's missing)
Thanks guys, its a aftermarket i believe - model is cobra 8510 or something. Hodgie812 havent received any pm from you but if you could lend us your knowledge that would be excellent. I'm sure its a key transponder but ive been told by the manufacturer that i cant get any replacement so gonna just take it out...next year i'd like to turn it into a serious off roader anyway so wont be needing the immobilizer. im gonna open it up tonight and see what i can do
Re: Immobilizer problem (Well...it's missing)
Take that back, have received your PM Hodgie812....many thanks!

Nae bother, let us know how you get on. sounds a similar model to ours. makes it much easier when we stall it now, no messing around having to reset it before starting up again.
