willg95vr6 0 Posted May 17, 2006 i have an intermittent fault with the immobliser picked up by VAGCOM, i have attached a word file with the recorded fault. 01128 fault found with immobliser pickup coil. this is the fault found when the car starts and then dies, and when the car is running the fault reads: intermitent fault - Engine blocked by immboliser on startup. anyone got any suggestions, purhaps its a fault with the ignition key chip thanks Will Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

willg95vr6 0 Posted May 17, 2006 Engine start blocked by immobiliser from what i have read from a post from kevhaywire, is something to do with the crank sensor. a) where is this located b) does anyone no a price and a part number for one c) Is it easy to fit thanks Will Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted May 17, 2006 Nope. It's the immobiliser coil, in the steering column. Or it's the connection from there to the immobiliser control box under the dash. Look for some excellent posts by RW1. The car would not start at all if you had a faulty crank sensor, and the error code would call out "engine speed sensor", not "immobiliser".
