I had to charge my battery the otherday and the leads touched for a split second and now I can't start my car. It cranks buy not start. The green immobilizer light keeps flashing with the key in the ignition.

I don't drive my TL much and I can't justify an expensive tow and dealership bill. I just want to delete/disable the immobilizer.

I realize this is a touchy matter but can someone please PM me instructions on how to do this. This is for my own personal use.

 

how about we get your car running instead of defeating its security system?

look under the hood at fuse boxes--look for Ignition as blown fuse
ck all fuses if in doubt- there is a diagram under the cover of every box and panel

 

^ Probl. blown fuse- check each one w/ a meter if in doubt. Might look ok but is not-

 

I already check all fuses under the hood, and at pass side and driver side fuse panels. no blown fuses. The immobilizer keeps flashing no matter what duplicate key i have for this car. all fuses are good. so how do i disable the immobilizer?

The car worked fine before this battery thing happened.

 

there is a way to disable (You have to remove a piece from the ECU circiut board) it but your CEL will be on for doing so

 

Double check the fuses.

 

I did double checked it last night. I used a circuit check light and a multimeter. both sides of each fuse has the same polarity and as a last resort, i physically checked each fuse.
With all the fuses ok and perfectly working. Whats my next move?
I can desolder that board just to see if the engine starts after removing it but I need to have a picture of it or some type of instructions to guide me.

I dont know how i didnt come across this. Ive been googling all day.

Thank you.


For the time being i will have to take that board out and wait till that replacement board comes out.

 

Ok so i didnt waste anytime and i went right to my car and removed the immobilizer board inside the ecu and she started right up!!

Thanks again for passing on that info.

Would anyone happen to know what part they used here on the replacement board?


Im going to try to contact the creator to see if he even start making them but something tells me that he didnt go through with the project.

 

I never knew! thanks for sharing
now to figure out reason for failure~

 

If you create a account there you get to see the rest of the threads. People purchased them. Somewhere in the forum i think it states what was used.
