How to Unlock Engine Immobilizer?
1 Answers
To unlock the engine immobilizer, follow these steps: Use the key to unlock first. If that doesn't work, disconnect the negative terminal of the battery for a period of time to allow the engine's protection data to reset, then reconnect the battery. Typically, disconnecting for about 10 seconds is sufficient. If the issue persists, it indicates insufficient discharge; remove the terminal again and wait longer this time. The working principle of the engine immobilizer system is: The car's ignition key contains an electronic chip with a unique fixed ID (similar to an identification number). The car can only start when the key chip's ID matches the ID stored in the engine. If the IDs don't match, the car will automatically cut off the circuit immediately, preventing the engine from starting.
