ebby 0 Posted March 9, 2009 I've got a feeling my TOAD alarm / immobiliser is faulty. Intermittently when i deactivate the alarm and then try to start the car i turn the key and nothing happens, so i try a few times and eventually it starts. Today i have done the same but after sitting there for 5 minutes trying to start it i've given up. :cuckoo: does this sound like the immobiliser to people? Or is it more likely a problem with the car's ignition.. I driver a late VR6 if that makes any difference. Any help appreciated :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebby 0 Posted March 9, 2009 Think my problem may be a faulty ignition switch after a search, sounds like a safe bet Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted March 9, 2009 sounds like the switch to me too... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Henny 0 Posted March 10, 2009 if it's anything like when mine went, you can turn off the immobiliser, turn on the ignition and then bump start (push start) the car... I got quite good at doing this and could actually bump start my G60 in the work carpark on my own! :grin: :brickwall: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
