i no im goin to be told to move this to help but i thought ive got more chance on gettin an answer in gc
anyway a friend of mine have a 1.4 sport started it yesterday to go to work got 10 yards down the road and cut out aa came out and said its sumthing to do with imboliser
you put the keys in the ignition and no lights cum on the dash but everything else works i.e stiero lights heater and so on any1 have any ideas to this is it the transponder not registering the chip as i thought it would still have dash lights just the eml would flash any help would be great thanks

Has it had an alarm/immobiliser fitted? its not the factory fitted transponder immobiliser causing the problem because like you say, you should have the dash lights on and a flashing ECU light

Check all the fuses first but it depends how good a job he did of "removing" it, all the connections need to be joined togethere where the immobiliser was fitted. If all the fuses check out ok then take the plastic guard off around the steering column and see if you can see where the wires were cut for the immobiliser

If you have a flashing ECU light then thats the built in immobiliser. No real reason why it should stop accepting your key unless you've dropped it and the chip has fallen out though. And the reason your new ECU wont work is because you need to have a matching ECU, Chipe and transponder pickup for it to all work

I dont mean the ignition barrel, as well as the chip and ECU the black plastic ring around the barrel with the wires going to it all have to be from the same car. did you swap that over as well? The built in immobiliser is part of the ECU and you cant bypass it unless you send it away to an ECU specialist
