I'll second that motion.
Exactly what my Vit was doing a while back.
Look around under the dash for a black box type thing.
Yeah I think you are both correct. I will have a look into it tonight.
Do you have any idea what would have triggered it?
Also I've done a little research on immobilizers and it seems most of them require some variety of hand held button to disable them. I never received such a device when I bought this car. Do you think the previous owner possibly forgot to give it to me? Or will I find some kind of manual way to disable it? (such as a switch or key lock, without having to tear it apart).
Either way I suppose I will eventually remove the immobilizer altogether and re-wire it back to its original state.
